Today the forms to request Tim's birth certificate and our marriage certificate went to Minnesota and Maryland, respectively. Expect to see those come in sometime in March at the latest.
Now all I have to do is complete the financial statement and get it notarized. Then, all of the Utah documents can be sent to the Utah Secretary of State for certification of the notaries. As soon as Tim's birth certificate comes back, I will turn that right around and send it back to Minnesota for certification, and when our marriage certificate comes in, I will package that up with my birth certificate and send them both to the Maryland secretary of state for certifications. Then, when all documents are certified by their respective states, I will package them up, and send them to Ky at AAI for authentication, unless she doesn't do that. The paperwork says she does, but, I have found that the paperwork isn't always accurate or up to date, so, I will cross that bridge when I come to it. Authentications are no big deal, I can handle that myself if need be.
Then, we need to send for Matthew's passport, since he is going to travel with us to pick up his little sister.
Teri, this is so exciting! You and Tim are such great parents. I can't wait to see your new little family member!
