Our Kazakhstan Adoption

Hello, We are Joe and Steph - a couple with a young biological son who have made the decision to adopt a child from Kazakhstan. Joe also has a teenage daughter from a previous marriage. Rather than infertility, we are adopting "by choice". We made this decision after much thought and research. There are so many children in the world that need a loving home. We hope this blog will keep our friends/family informed of our progress along the way!

Update

We just received an update from our agency that our dossier is on its way to the MFA (Ministry of Foreign Affairs). That means it has been translated in Kazakhstan, then went to their embassy in Washington DC, and is now back in Kazakhstan. From the MFA it then goes to the MOE (Ministry of Education). She said they would update us again once it was going to the MOE.
The wait has not been too bad - the holidays keep us so busy that time is flying by!
