Checking In-IBESR

I decided to email and check in with our adoption coordinator, Allie last Thursday. It's been three months since our dossier was submitted to the orphanage and I had not heard anything regarding our status.  A few days later she replied back with a little good news. Our dossier was currently in IBESR and our registration # is 00606!! Our dossier will remain in queue until it's our turn to receive a match.  She feels like referral times right now are somewhat unpredictable due to the backlog from the past few months and the new changes that were made. She is hoping that other families in our group who have been waiting longer receive their official matches soon and are invited for their 2 week bonding trip.

Outside of our adoption, we have finalized some plans for our summer vacations.  In June we are going to Orlando to attend the Family Life-Weekend to Remember marriage conference. While there we will go to Disney World.  For our anniversary in July, I managed (with a LOT of effort) to get tickets to the Beyonce and Jay-Z concert at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta, July 15th.  Looking forward to both of these trips and hopefully it will take my mind off of the adoption for a little while.
