You are near the top of the list for a baby boy. Complete files have been coming to us more slowly as they are gathering more information before sending in anticipation of the courts continuing to be ever more picky. It is hard to wait for a referral but even harder to have a case that is not heard in court because they are now asking for more details. I hope it won't be too much longer.

Recieved a letter from the adoption agency today. Highlights from the letter as follows:
I like to send an update every couple of months to keep you informed of the progress of the waiting list.
For baby boys, we are referring to families whose dossiers went to Ethiopia the second half of January. Ours is dated January 15th so this applies to us.
There are new babies in the nursery whose files are not yet complete. As we recieve complete files we will be referring the babies and we hope the families will make their decisions quickly as possible in hopes of getting through court before it closes, which is usually early August. At this time families recieving referrals can expect to have their child in 4 to 8 months.

Waitin List Update May 4th, 2009
We recieved another e-mail today from the adoption agency today:
Good afternoon:
Currently Merrily is making referrals of the next available infant boy files to Dec 08/Jan 09 families; and infant girls to September 2008 families.
She just returned from Ethiopia (first day back is today) and I am waiting for documents to complete infant files. She will probably start making calls again hopefully by the first of next week (once the power comes back up in Ethiopia and we can start receiving child documents again).
