It is Outta Here!!

O.k. So I know I wasn't supposed to contact the National Visa Center until two weeks after we got our letter and I was going to make myself wait at least a week before contacting them, but self control has never been my strong point. But it looks like it is my strong point today! I called the NVC and they said our paperwork had been sent to Korea yesterday!! Woohoo!!

Now we contact the State Department and they track the progress of the visa in Korea. For instance, when Jee Han has gone for his visa interview. This is an interview I'd like to see. Picture it if you will:
Visa worker: "So will your trip be business or pleasure?"
Little Guy: Blink...blink
Visa worker: "Will anyone be traveling with you?"
Little Guy: Looks at the little frog we sent him
Visa worker: "Is this your first trip to the US?"
Little Guy: Starts eating paperwork

So as usual we'll keep you up to date on anything we find out. We're still plugging away on our list of things to do. I started his quilt last week. Please don't go back and look to see when Cydney and I picked out the fabric. I know....procrastination.

I have been following your blog since this summer when we received referrals right around the same time. We may end up traveling to Korea and Eastern at around the same time as you as well, though I'm really hoping we get to go in late October. Our paperwork was forwarded to Korea at the end of last week. Would be neat to meet a fellow blogger half way around the world at such a special time as picking up our sons!

Yeah! I'm so happy things are going quickly! We're still praying baby boy Henson will be here by Christmas! Good luck with the quilt and getting his room ready. It's been fun getting to see you guys so often lately. I loved the mental picture of the visa "interview". :)
