I called the SDA and talked to Tanya again this morning. She told me that they did receive our documents. I asked them if they "checked" them. SHe said that they do not do this until right before our appointment. I told her that I was very worrid that if something happened to be wrong with one of them that we would not have our appointment. She said not to worry and that everything would be fine and she would see us on the 25th. Like I said before, I am confident that our documents are all good (as picky as I was about them being correct), but you just never know. I am thinking "WORST" case scenario, is if something wer not right with one of them, we could get someone in Atlanta to update the document here, get it appostilled and shipped to us in Ukraine. It would just delay our appointment for few day or more. I wouldn't think we would have to come back home!!!! PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE continue to pray about this and for us to have our appointment and for the rest of the adoption to go smoothly!!
For those families waiting on the October list..............I asked her about this too, and she said the October list hasn't been made yet. What?????? It has to be made by now, October is coming up in a few weeks and those with early Oct. dates would get little to no notice if they don't post it soon. Hopefully she meant they haven't "posted" it yet, not haven't "made" it yet. Everyone please pray for these famlies as well, that they will get their letters saying their appointment dates soon.
On another note, we have everything packed now!!!!!!! We tried and tried and tried some more to fit everything into one large rolling duffle. It didn't happen. So, we have 1 large rolling duffle, one medium rolling duffle and 3 small backpacks for carryons. Oh, and a baby papazan that we are checking for our translator's friend, Natasha, who had a baby last month.
More updates soon........

Ok - don't know if that is good or bad news about October appts?!?
Maybe you should call her back one week before your appt and see if they have looked over your paperwork then?

Thank you for asking about the October appointments. Although this info doesn't affect you, it is like gold to me and so many other waiting families. I interpret "it isn't made yet to be more like the list isn't ready to be posted. I'm sure they have started the scheduling. The message I pull from this is not to go nuts looking for a list in the next few days. I am still hopeful that we might see it as early as Friday or next Monday. Thanks again! Your journey resumes in just a matter of days!!!!
I am sure that everything will be fine, if not you know that there is so many of us here willing to do all that we can. We are all so excited for you all. I myself cannot wait to meet your new additons. Always in our prayers we love you!
