Here are some pictures and a video from the early birthday party we had for Kya a few weeks ago. I made the dress and bow. And yes...they spelled her name wrong on the cake. Enjoy!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KYA ALEJANDRA!!!
I can't believe you are a year old baby girl! We are so excited to be bringing you home in a couple months! I wish we could spend this special day with you.

HAPPY FATHERS DAY!!!!
It's definately a happy one here! Now that I have time, let me tell you about our week.
I called PGN Tuesday expecting to hear that we were still with the 2nd reviewer. The lady who answered said, "The case is finished review." I asked her if we were approved or had a Previo (kick out). She said, "Yes, a previo." I was very disappointed, but like I have said before, we know she will come home in God's timming, NOT ours. I emailed our agency to confirm the news. They said not to be supprised if we are because the majority of cases are getting kick outs. Then while I was working Thursday morning, I got a call from our agency. My heart dropped when I saw the caller ID. I knew they wouldn't call to tell me about a KO (they normally email me) I ran to the back of the building and answered the phone. She said that our attorney went to PGN to pick up our "rejected" file, but instead it said APPROVED!!! I was basically yelling in her ear "WHAT...WHAT...ARE YOU SURE? DID YOU SAY APPROVED?!!!" I must have asked her 5 times before it sunk in. I waited untill I was off work, picked up a fathers day card, and wrote inside, "We are OUT of PGN!!! KYA IS COMMING HOME!!!". Then I went to Philip's work and gave him the card. (he was outside with some of his co-workers.) He opened it up, looked at me and said, "No...are you sure?" I said yes and he literally got on his knees. I think everyone who was there thought something bad happened.
We are both so shocked right now. We thought we would be waiting another 8-10 months for Kya to come home. I know that God is doing this for Kya. She needs medical attention and the conditions she's living in are not helping. Now we are waiting for her birth certificate. It could take 4-6 weeks to get. Then we will bring her home about 2-4 weeks after that. So 6-10 weeks!!!! I cannot believe I actually know she will be home in 6-10 weeks!!!
