Well today, it has officially been 4 months since we got our referral for our sweet boy. I know I haven't posted in awhile. I began posting before when I was so stressed and needed an outlet and now I really need it again. Last week we became so hopeful because we finally found out that our son had made an embassy appearance in Korea and had his passport photo taken. That was last Thursday. Generally a Travel Call comes soon after that, but first he has to have what is called a Visa Interview, which is when the Social Worker from the agency in Korea returns the paperwork to the embassy (I think) and then he is cleared to leave. I can find out when the Visa Interview is scheduled by calling the State Department in DC. I have been calling everyday and they tell me it is still not scheduled. I am getting very frustrated and have no interest in doing anything. I know I sound terrible, but it is so hard to wait.
On a more positive note since I haven't even posted anything since we got the referral for our sweet baby boy, we have named him Tae (like Ty) Haze Min Hobbs. He is absolutely beautiful!!! He is also described as being a very smart and gentle baby. On February 16th we received updated pictures of him and his cheeks are just huge. I found out last week that at nearly nine months he weighs 21.3 pounds and is 28.7 inches tall...a big boy! We are so in love with him and we feel so blessed, we just want him to come home. Please pray we get our travel call VERY soon.
