THIS is how Megersa looks in oh, about 75% of his pictures recently. Seriously. (except picture his lips curled in)
I so desperately want to see him smile!
We are so very fortunate to have access to a short video clip of him smiling, so at least I know he does smile from time to time.
I spoke with my friend who took the pictures and she said that he does smile alot, but when he sees the camera coming - the startled face is what we get.
Awe, poor baby!
Court news:
None yet. But my friend who is in the same Group letter as me called in to check about our court date. Apparently AAI hasn't heard anything about it yet, but "they should be hearing very soon." Which is good news. Hopefully AAI will hear something before Ethiopia's New Year (which is Jan 6), because they take holiday time off for that.
Rachael was told that the court date tends to be about 2 weeks after AAI is informed. So, basically, we don't know anything yet, but it's LOOKING like our court date may be in 2-3 weeks! "Mid-late January," she said!
Very exciting!
I soooooooooooooooo want to hold my baby!
He needs his Mommy...and his Mommy needs him (maybe one more than the other ;)!
Katie, Tim & Cale Nester...
...would love it if you would follow along as we record our adoption journey. We feel blessed to be called to adopt a son from Ethiopia!
About our journey:
- We requested "either" gender, 0-18 months.
- We received our referral of Megersa on Nov 5, 2009; he was 2 months old.
- Megersa's name is pronounced "Meh-gur-sah."
- Our case was submitted on Dec 18, 2009 and our court date was Jan 27, 2010. We were fortunate to pass court on the first try!
- Tim's mom and I left for Ethiopia on March 8, 2010 for an Embassy appointment of March 10, 2010. We passed!
- Megersa met the rest of his family in the US 3.13.10.
- When we re-adopt him, his full legal name will be Megersa Jace Nester.
