We have legals and Big surprise!!!

This has been an exciting week for us!! First of all on Wednesday, we received Maya's legals by fed ex.
On Thursday morning, I received a huge surprise from Tami. Anju, the director at the orphange has Maya's PASSPORT!!! I could hardly believe it. It only took 13 days for her passport to be processed!!! We were expecting at least 5 weeks.


So....The journey to bring Maya home continues on....in just 3 weeks, Friday, March 16th we leave for Kolkatta, India. Our 4 year old son, Devan will be coming with us .

First Friends!


This picture was sent to me by Kristi, Daya's mom. It was taken by Amanda who just picked up her daughter, Ananya. I wonder if Maya and Daya sleep together in this crib. I will always treasure this picture. Isn't it just so sweet how Maya is sucking her thumb? She is like a little doll!!!

Legals and New Pictures




On January 30th, Maya's 10 month old birthday..we recieved great news from Tami. The judge in Kolkatta approved BK and I as Maya Atmoja's legal guardians. YEAH!!!!! We were extremely happy. Our documents were signed by the judge on February 6.




On January 31st, we recieved 2 more pictures of our baby girl. She is getting so big. I can hardly wait to hold her.
