LOA!!!!

We got our LOA yesterday!!!!!!  I played with dates and looks like a 3/17 or 3/24 gotcha day unless we hit snags. Yay!!!

We also got an update on our Alex right after Christmas. We got new measurements, one pic(bringing the total number of pics we have to 4), labs, and they answered some questions I sent. He likes planes and his favorite color is red!!!

Next step is for US immigration to basically pre-approve his visa. This will take about a month probably. Then the paperwork goes to the US consulate in China so they know we will be coming. They add paperwork that basically says they will issue his visa when we get there. Once the Chinese government has that they will invite us to travel (issue our TA). For Claire we were on a plane 4-5 days after TA. 

While we wait on the two governments, I have to get a power of attorney since Scott is not traveling, and my visa to be able to travel. 

Here is the new pic we got!!
