Plans for this week.
I will start from last weekend. Saturday was really busy for us, especially for Sergey. But Sunday we decided to go to San Francisco, it's one hour and 30 minutes drive. It was nice there. we had a really nice, and relaxed day. we walked a lot, we spend some time by the ocean, on the little blanket. Daniel did want to walk on the sand with out his shoes. First when he saw sand on his feet, he didn't want to walk at all, but later by playing we was showing him that it's ok, to be dirty. He is funny, even home he likes his hands to be clean, and his face, and especially his feet.
Today we will finish notarizing our last few documents, and tomorrow Sergey will take it to apostle and then send it to Ukraine. Hopefully everything will work out great.
And rest of the week Sergey will be working on the new room, and I will just see how can I help.
I worry a lot about everything, every little thing. I am trying to control it, but it's hard:)))
I have dreams about our appointment in Ukraine, and our kids already:)))

Document still here.
Today was a busy day, I was not supposed to work, but I did, because family that I work for is moving to a different apartment, and they asked me if I can watch their 4 year old. I love to watch this little girl, she is so sweet. Her parents did go through all the stuff/toys that they had, and they gave a lot of toys for Daniel! So Christmas for Daniel came early this year!!!
Now about paperwork!
I did went to the Secretary of State to get apostle on all our documents, but I couldn't do all of them. Because our copies of passport, copy of I171H, and copy of our tax return was not notarized. And notary at their office was not available. If I only knew, I would do it somewhere else before coming to their office. Next time we will be smarter. So now, I have to find a notary, and notarize our copies, and then go on Monday to get apostle, and mail everything to Ukraine. We so happy, and nervous, and also really want this to be done as soon as possible.
I want my child/ren be home with us!
Thank you guys for all your comments, and support, and all of your prayers! We feel them! We see Gods hand in our life, and we know that God is with us, and He will not let us down!
God Bless You and your families!!!

I171H in our hands!!!
I was really surprised when I opened our mail box and there was our I171H! It was fast! Tomorrow all documents will get notarize and Friday I am not working and hopefully will go to get all of them apostle! It would be so nice if we can mail everything to Ukraine this week, so we have some extra time, in case there is any mistakes!
Waiting for I171H
Yesterday, I e-mailed USCIS adoption department, and they told me that they are really sorry for delay of our I171H approval, and they said it will be in the mail today! Hopefully we will receive it this week and will be ready to mail all documents on Monday!
We still have make copy of our tax return for 2008, and typed on the bottom"true and ......copy" and notarize, and we will be done!!!
I been working all week, so I wasn't able to go and apostle all our documents. But before I do that I really want to see I171H in the mail, so we can do everything at the same time.

Amost done with all the paperwork!
We have all the paperwork, except I171, which I am really hope will come this week.
Few days ago Sergey scanned all document, and e-mailed to Our facilitator, and he said everything looks good. So now, we have only 4 more pages to notarize, and if I am not working tomorrow I will take it to get apostle, and will send everything to Ukraine tomorrow.
We are so happy because now we see the end!
House updates:
Sergey working really hard to finish our new room in garage, he worried so much to get it done on time, we really want our kids to have their own rooms. Yesterday Sergey was so happy, and I was really proud of him, on his own, with our any help he did a light switch, and light now working in our new room!!! Very good, hard working husband I have!
I am not a big help now, :))) most of the time I am not feeling good, I think now it's a little better, but still no energy. So, I am trying to do as much as I can to collect all the paperwork.:))
I am already praying for our submission date, I am so nervous, I guess it's also my hormones:)))
I will try to keep you updated, lately I have no time, but I will try!
Thank you for being with us , during this journey!

Last paperwork
Tomorrow I have an appointment with my doctor and our mobile notary to meet and sigh and notarize my medical form. Hopefully this time it's a correct code, and we don't have to go back to our doctor.
Also my husband having our notary to meet him and a lady who is sighing, my husband's employment letter, and it should be done tomorrow as well.
This is last two pieces of documents that we need.
I am not talking about our I171, we are hoping that it will come in the mail early next week, so actually this is our last paper, but there is not much we can do to get it done faster. I did e-mail that department, but still no news.
So we will see.

My medical Form!
I e-mail my doctor today, like 5 times, and we finally found a correct code. Now I have to ask our facilitator if doctor can just put his initials and put a correct code next to it, or we have to redo all form all over again.
I think we will have to redo all over again, but I still e-mail our facilitator to make sure.
Did any of you guys had to change something little in your documents, and all you did it just white out, or cross it of and write next to it, with initials??? Just a question.........

Fingerprints Appointment!
Yesterday we got an invitation to come and do our fingerprints! Wow, it was fast, I was expecting this notice to come at least in two weeks, but we have it already and next Saturday we have to go to get our fingerprints taken. It's kind of last peace in collecting all documents for dossier. After fingerprints appointment we just have to wait for our I171 to come in the mail. So excited!!!
Also my husband took a request to get his employment letter . Hopefully we will have it soon.
We haven't heard nothing from our facilitator, hopefully he is back in Kiev, and will be able to take our documents to SDA in order to get our submission date.
My husband working hard to finish one more bedroom and a little office, so we have it ready by the time our kids will come home. Please pray for him!
Thank you for all your prayers!!!
