Immigration


Today we had our fingerprints done at immigration. I will have to say it was the smoothest transaction that we have done to this date. We got there early, went in and was out in 20 minutes. So we are now one more step closer. We now wait upon approval from immigration and once we get it our Dossier (paperwork) will be sent to China

Split Lip

Here's a photo of my busted lip that required 2 stiches. It's amazing how fast the body can heal. A little less that one week later you can barely tell what happened. I think that the stiches really did help because it closed up the gap in the lip and kept it from scabbing and scarring too much. This is a lovely self portrait I took at a red light on my way to the E.R.

BIG MOUTH

This can be taken several ways. Most of you know that I am know for talking aka having a big mouth, but not everyone knows that I have recently aquired a physically big mouth. I'll attach photo later, It's at school on my classroom camera. Tuesday night warming up for the ball game I was tossing the ball with my team mates. I turn to say something to the girl on my right who just threw the ball, and then turned to prepare for the other girl to throw me the ball, little did I know that she had already done so, so when I turned it was there right on my face. Needless to say it busted my mouth. They asked if I was O.K. because I continued to hold my mouth and then looked down at my hand and it was covered with blood and they were saying "oh my gosh!" So, I missed the first couple of innings while I iced my mouth and waited for it to quit pouring blood. After the game I had Holly, my best friend who is an nurse look at it and she thought it needed a stich. I headed to promt care at 8:05 to find out that they closed at 8:00. I then headed to the E.R. at Doctor's and stayed there until about midnight. I ended up with 2 stiches in my lip.

On a brighter note, we got our appointment for our FBI fingerprints for next Friday, May 19th, the last day of school. I have had perfect attendance up to this point working on getting a bonus which I will now loose. I am o.k. with that because it puts us a little closer to getting our paper work into China. This process has had some unexpected delays due to life, It is still looking like we will get our daughter in June 2007.
