our prints have been taken

YES, today we went to the USCIS office in Nashville and had our fingerprints taken! Now our next step is waiting for one precious piece of paper, I171-H, pre-approval to bring an orphan into the country. After that we will be notarizing, authenticating and wrapping up our Dossier. Our understanding is that it can take 2-12 weeks to receive the I171-H, so obviously we are hoping for the 2 week wait, we'll see!

Hi, My name is Tristen and we are in the process of adopting from Rwanda too. I would LOVE to talk to you more about how you came to your decision to adopt 2 children (vs 1) and what ages you "requested". We have been wanting 2 but have been discouraged by other people saying it isn't a good idea to do 2 at once. I would love to hear your story. My email is tristen@cox.net
