Blaaaaaaaaaah





Another disappointing month of referrals. I am no longer going to make estimates. It should happen this year though? Meanwhile we are reading more books on the subject of adoption and baby care. Amazon.Com should give us an award for using its website so much this month. I modified the blog to look a little bit more cheery. I cannot wait to be able to put up some pictures of our baby.

On another note we found an office at the Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond that specializes in international adoptions. They will be able to give us an idea of the general health of our daughter based on a few pictures and the cursory medical report that comes with the referral. They also provide advice on what to bring to China, prescribe prescriptions for the travelers and baby, and are on call 24 hours a day while we are in China. In addition they can conduct a post-evaluation to more quickly address any medical issues our daughter may have when we come back. It is a little bit of security of mind for us. If I could pay a doctor to come along I would.

On the Rumor Queen website, rumors are looking to give us a March/April referral. I think it would be funny if it happened on April 1st. I will keep you posted.
