Woo Hoo! Preapproval received!!!!!!

Oh, hallelujah. I awoke to the most fabulous of emails: preapproval from CIS to travel to adopt Isabella! This is the holy grail. We've been proving Bella's an orphan for the last couple of months, and they accepted our evidence! Amazing. It had gotten to the point that I was sleeping with my laptop so I could more easily access my email in the middle of the night. I'd roll over, check mail, go back to sleep, roll over, check mail, and so on. Thank goodness that's over! Poor Jim has already given the bed up to Wingnut and Chelsea. Now a computer??

To top it off I got a fabulous doll for Isabella in the mail today from Naomi. It's so beautiful, and Bella will LOVE it. It even smells good! Check it out: http://www.sleepysoft.com/site/480020/product/23230

I started packing immediately tonight. I had to wash all of Isabella's clothes, pack her toiletries, toys, diapers, etc. It took all night! I'm a tired puppy so will quit now.
