The Baby Breininger Blog

Welcome friends! In 2007 we started this blog to share the status of our adoption process. After an excrutiatingly long wait, we travelled to Haiti in June 2009 and brought our girl home on July 15. Now this blog is a place for us to share pictures and videos, give updates and brag about how wonderful she is. Enjoy!

Another big day!

Today we passed through another step. With this one complete we are now legally Bedeline's parents! While this is wonderful news, it's still not time to go pick her up. :( The next step is the Ministry of Interior, where they issue her a Haitian passport. This step has been known to take a few months, but we're hoping our lawyer will work the same magic she's worked in the last two steps, which she moved us through very quickly.

While we wait we're very excited to get to spend Christmas with our families, especially my nephew, Owen, who we haven't seen since June.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to each of you!

Praise God! What a great December you've had! Praying it won't be long before she's home for good.

I'm so glad I keep checking back! Finally an answer to prayer. I think this stage is the hardest because it's "real" but it's also still really out of your control!!!! We will continue to lift you up as you prepare for the difficult task of assimilating Bedeline into your family. What fun you have in store! God bless...
