Ready for Translation

We have all the documents we need...so, after sending off a big check, we expect that the docs will now go to D.C. to be translated into Vietnamese (we are told that they will likely be sent sometime next week, and that translation will take about 3 weeks). So, we are back to waiting. We are thinking that if all goes well, docs will be in Vietnam by March (then we do not know how long things will take before we get the referral).

In the meantime, we are reading books and shopping:). We are going on vacation to Napa next week where Martine will celebrate her 30th birthday on the 27th!! Martine just got her birthday gift in the mail from her parents, and it included a cute shirt that says "baby" and then has an arrow pointing down to a heart shaped Vietnamese flag that says "(Vietnam)" under it. see Shirt Design. This will help when going shopping for baby items (since baby store people keep looking at Martine's stomach and asking how far along she is... now they can hopefully just read the shirt:)...)
