Consulate Date

Well, we finally have a scheduled appointment with the US Consulate in Guangzhou to get Jasper's Visa. Unfortunately, it's scheduled for March 7th!

So, we'll probably be flying out of here about the 24th of February. We'll spend a couple days in Beijing for sight-seeing, then go to Changsha on the 28th. That's where we'll get Jasper and officially adopt her.

Then, it's on to Guangzhou for our consulate appointment on the 7th. We pick up the Visa on the 8th, and will probably head back to the States on the 9th.

It seems so far away, but I'm sure the next five weeks will go by quickly . . .

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday to the soon-to-be Jasper Bing Fields!

We got an update from the orphanage. She is about 21 pounds now, and almost 30 inches tall! She's got 4" feet, and six teeth!

Still no word yet on when we'll be traveling to get her, though. Hopefully we'll find out next week!
