News of Referrals

Happy New Year! It's 2007. This is just an update on the expedited referral front. News of March 2006 LID families are arriving. However, I'm wondering how long April LID expedited families will wait until their referrals will arrive for them. In the past, CCAA has done expedited referrals with a 2 month span (i.e. January & February expedited families referrals arrive at the same time). I'm just wondering what the pattern is or if there will be any pattern at all now. Hubbie hopes that we'll be united with our baby by the end of 2007. I'm more of the optimist of the two of us. I hope that it'll be earlier than that.
Lately, Hubbie & I have started list of baby names posted on our refrigerator door. We have about 12-13 names written down. However, I don't think we'll settle on a definite name until we receive our picture and initial information about our baby. We want to feel that the name we choose "fits" the baby and so it is an ever evolving list of names for now. I'm thinking that baby will have a Chinese name which the family will call her but, however, will not be included in her official name documents. (Just a little rambling about what we've been thinking about while waiting amongst other things to think about.)
