Yesterday we ventured to beautiful, scenic Elizabeth, NJ to have our fingerprints re-done at the Immigration offices. We originally had these done in June '09 (because I just looked that up), but our ever-diligent immigration officer assigned to our case made us go again because they were going to expire. I think they may be good for 18 months, I'm not even sure. If they are good for 18 months, then we just went 5 months early. I don't know, that seems.... Maybe they are only good for 14 months or something. I want to look this up. She's been holding up Sean's paperwork though for our fingerprint do-over. Hopefully things will start to move again now. Because while we're sitting here twiddling our thumbs, wondering if our immigration officer has just chosen our paperwork to take out some latent aggression and bust some balls, Sean is growing and learning new things in Korea.
I know this for a fact, because we finally received this month's well baby check! It was dated July 5, but why it took so long to be emailed to us is the same sort of mystery along the lines of why this is taking so long, and why our immigration officer is being over-zealous with our paperwork. Sean grew a centimeter from last month (they use the metric system over there) and is now 30.4 inches tall. His weight stayed the same though, at 21.3 lbs. It says he is walking by holding on to furniture and now waves bye-bye. Hopefully, with a little luck, we will travel to go get him and he will soon by waving bye-bye to Korea.
