We have a date!

Wow! It's been a long time since I updated this. Really, there hasn't been any excitement lately. Dani usually visits every two - three weeks or we go to her parent's house. Matt hasn't seen Eliana since the baptism. He called one Sunday a month or so ago but it didn't work out for us to meet up. We haven't heard back from him since. Hopefully it won't be too much longer before his next visit because Ellie's starting to do so many fun things and she's not yet really nervous of strangers.

But the reason for this blog and the good news is that we have a court date! The first date we received didn't work with our lawyer who is also a friend and really wanted to be at the hearing. So we rescheduled and got a date only a week later than the first. It's not until July unfortunately, but it will be here before we know it! Then we will have all of this wrapped up and Eliana will legally be a McKeever! And then we can start getting some money back for the adoption expenses - bonus! Darren can get an adoption grant from ING and next year we can start taking the adoption tax credit. Thanks President Bush and fellow Americans for helping us pay for our adoption :)
