Certificate of Citizenship

The last piece of paperwork for Mason was mailed off today.  His certificate of citizenship form.  It's weird to think that I don't have more paperwork to do for him.  We have been working on paperwork for Mason for over 2 years.  Yikes. 

We still haven't gotten his social security card.  Going on 3 weeks when the lady at the social security office said it would take 2 weeks. 

The COC form goes up $200 next week so we thought we would risk sending it in without Mason's social security card.  I guess if they have to have it, they can let us know and we will send it in when we get it. 

What a week!!

Mason was running a fever Sunday thru Wednesday.  2 trips to the doctor's office with me almost in tears because the doctor just said he had a virus and there was nothing he could do for it.  He did rule out things with a chest x ray and blood work.  So--it was just tylenol and ibuprophen for days, rest, and fluids.  Then a call yesterday at almost 5:00 saying that one test showed he might have strep.  So--antibiotics.  Much better today!

Of course Mike and I still had to go to Wichita to USCIS to get fingerprinted today for little brother.  Thank God for Mike's parents.  We dropped Mason off at 5:30 this morning so we could make it to Wichita by 8:00.  Then we had Christmas pictures for Mason at 4:30.  What a day!  What a week!

AND it's not even Friday yet!
