We got word today that our 800 application was sent via FedEx so for those of you following the new 800A/800 process let the timeline officially begin! It was also very neat to see our NOC - his name by ours...
We moved Nate into his twin bed this weekend and he has done great! I wanted to make sure he didn't get out of bed when he woke up from nap or in the morning and so far, so good! The first nap I must have put him back in bed at least 10 to 15 times though. Now he waits in it patiently for up to 20-30 minutes while I drag my feet in the morning to go get him. I can't believe it was so easy! I was thinking he would need weeks to get adjusted before Cole came. Here is the proud boy on the bed from Grandma & Grandpa and the wonderful quilt made by my mom!
In other news, we are so excited and so blessed to say we are going to Disneyworld in 3 weeks! It is my most favorite place ever (we went once 3 years ago) and I would choose to go there over any other place in the world. Mark's parents are blessing us and we are so thankful for the opportunity to have a vacation and a break from the waiting and the winter. :)
Well, I will keep you posted on our 800 progress. It will be nice to take another step closer to our sweetie.

Hooray! What a big milestone to have out of the way -- for both things, the 800 and the big boy bed. :o) I'm so glad the bed transition went smoothly, after the high-maintenance nap, that is! Now you're (mostly) all ready.

What a big boy you have now. When they move to the big boy bed you never know what to expect. Glad the transition went so well. It will be interesting to see how this new process of the I-800 plays out. Thanks for updates and congrats on getting one step closer to your baby! Have a great vacation to Disney world.

Yay for more progress and Nate's milestone!!! I hope you have a blast in Disney - post lots of pics. I have not been in years and will live vicariously through your trip ;)
Great news with the I-800. Guess we get to watch through you how well this new process works.
Hooray for the big boy bed and have fun on the trip!

Hope Disney is a blast (how could it not be?!)
And hope the 800 process is super speedy (and you get to move on to the oh so fun guardianship wait SOON!)
Yay, Nate! How did you accomplish that?! Clearly I did something wrong since our transition is months long!!
