I called the 202-663-1225.. As soon as the operator got on the phone I gave her the case number, she verified who I was and she told me what I wanted to know without me even having to ask. She then told me that the info or packet 4 was mailed out last week. We're rolling now. I just want to get it over with already.

Thanks, I thought I remember reading somewhere that there was a fee for the fingerprinting..

I think it was like $85 U.S..

We are

I was going to met up with Mindy last year but it just didn't work out.

Oh Anna is to but I haven't heard anything from her. Wonder if her husband made it here. Has any vets heard from her?

Congratulations on the job offer! My SO had asked me several times if I would move to Jamaica before we filed the K1. I thought hard about it but not to long because I couldn't uproot my 2 girls so I think I will just stick to the vacations and coming back to visit his family. That will give me something to look forward to. Either way, both of us will have to do some major adjusting.

ALright ladies, im needing some prayers this morning. Yesterday i did not talk to my SO all day, nor night for the first time in 4 months, so i automatically knew something was wrong, i tossed and turned all night. The last time i talked to my SO he was getting off work monday night and heading to Margaritaville, He usually calls when he leaves despite the hour to let me know he is heading home, but he never did. Tuesday is his day off. No call, well i just get a call this morning from his friend reggie saying he got hit by a car!!! and is kind of ok!!!!! WTH...is kind of okay...his phone is destroyed and i have no way to get in contact with him. His friend reggies patois was so heavy i could barely figure out what the heck he was saying.....OMG!!! i have to go to work this morning and im about to have dang anxiety attack. Guys pray for us ok, i really am needing to find out if he is okay and what is going on. I tell him about walking in the road all the time, but he doesnt listen. Lets hope he is ok. Thanks.. i just needed to ramble a little, until i can calm down so i dont start bawling

You guys are in my prayers. I am thinking positive fir you guys that all he has is minor injures.

I ask my pediatrician about taking her to the beach and she advised against it. She said no sunscreen or bug repellent on her yet at 3 months. She should be in the shade at all times if possible. I have summer hats but they don't fit her head and I have one that matches her bathing suit too. I hope she fits in by the time we get there. She needs to gain some more weight. I am hoping we can take her to the beach at night. I am just wondering about nursing if I should be swimming at all. My daughter refuses the bottle. She gets very colic if you try to feed her formula. She use to take until she was one month old. We are wondering if we need to switch brands. But we have only gone threw one can big can of formula so far. I am hoping she will start taking formula again because it would be nice for Grandma to babysit why we are in Jamaica.

There is no problem that you are nursing as regards swimming.

I know your pediatrician has advised against insect repellent, but there are two ways you can do it.

Either find a natural insect repellent which does not contain chemicals ( I know they have them, will ask my friend in Jamaica about the name), or what you can do is take a course of vitamin C tablets which will filter to her in your breast milk.

My son is almost 10 months, he refuses to even drink expressed breast milk!!

He was very colicky too, the only thing that was good for him was the breast.

Have you tried her with expressed milk?

Thanks JAE

She will only take express milk from my mom if I am not home. She will only eat 3oz from her and won't sleep. She just waits for me to get home so I never leave her a lot. I would love to get an outfit for her baptism this Sunday for me so I am hoping my mom can sit for an hour and she won't need food.

JA then do you never leave him if he won't take Expressed milk?

Hey ladies, those of you who like a little adventure, here on the east coast NY to DC or DC to NY. There is a bus company called the MEGA BUS, they have tickets as little as $1.00 each way from NY to DC or DC to NY. There are other tickets prices aswell, it depends on what time you are willing to travel. I just purchase a friend of my SO a $2.50 round trip ticket from NY to DC over the 4th of July weekend.

In DC the bus stops at the METRO subway stop, but soon will be at Union Station . In NY it is at PENN statation. This is not the (chinese bus), this is something new. Go to www. MEGABUS.com

Be Bless

That is weird that you mention the Megabus because I saw one last night on my way home from work here in St. Paul and thought there must be some catch - like $1.00 one way - the other way back is $857 or something like that. That would be a really cheap way to get to Chicago, especially with gas prices these days (sometimes I do sound like an old codger).

I checked out round trip for us from St. Louis to Chicago the first week of November. $16 round trip. Plus a 50 cent service charge.......Amazing. And, Mindy offered us her house to stay at. So, Looks like we are going on a bus trip in November. I am so psyched right now.

The $1.00 thing is to reel you in. It's limited time and all that. But, still......$16 round trip.....AWESOME!!!!

Have fun in the city!! That deal is so sweet. I will have to check Chicago to NY and maybe surprise me hubby on going to his sisters house.

It doesn't go from Chicago to NY.

KC to Michigan is as far as that train goes.

yep I know I wrote about that later in a post saying darn.

You know, had I got this kinda offer last year I woulda been jumping for joy. But now I've already come to terms with him living here for awhile first. We are definintly planning on moving back there. Just trying to get the house situated. I just want to stinkin interview already

Wakey thanks for sharing your story. Congrats and all the best. J

I feel you Lita.... I told my SO maybe sometime later, when my girls are off to college or something we can move back if he wants. But that won't happen for quite some time. Hell I'm in school myself right now. He already has a house there which his family will keep and attend to when he leaves.

Did you get any info when you called NVC?

Dwain said this too when he moved up here a year ago and now he doesn't want to move back to Jamaica. He only wants to go back to visit. How times changes. The Vets told me this would happen. So right.

Alright ladies, i still appreciate all of your well wishes, im on day 2 of minimal information, and it is killing me. My SO is home on ten days bed rest, with minor injuries from his accident. His friend reggie called again and said that he is ok, just very banged up from his accident, which im still not clear on i still havent had the opportunity to talk to my SO and its killing me, but im trying to keep up a brave front, as i again have a full day of work and dealing with other peoples problems...LOL...hopefully today i will hear something more concrete and get to talk to him. Boy this long distance thang, can really take a toll on you emotionally when stuff like this happens!!!!!

Classy i also use ringyard, which keeps track of your calls for you, i love it.
