Hi Everyone,

To those of you who are interested.....(and remember me from the N-400 boards here on VJ)

At last, my baby boy is here!

Here is the brief update about my baby:

Baby's Name: Aaron David

Date of Birth: July 30, 2009

Time of Birth: 4:15pm (16:15)

Weight: 8 pounds 8 ounces

Length: 20 and 1/2 inches

See my signature below too, for a photo of Aaron, taken during his arrival home from the hospital...

Funny how it takes...

285 days/9 months for my baby...And so the baby wins!... :innocent:

291 days/10 months for my 10year green card..... :devil:

How long will it take for my upcoming Citizenship application?

Another baby on the way before then perhaps? (just kidding).... :lol:

Meanwhile:

1) I continue making out the paperwork and gathering the evidence for the N-400, hopefully am able to file on August 18th, or not too long after that

2) Wait for my son's birth certificate in the mail (have to get that first before I file). How much longer will it take?

3) Wait for confirmation that the USCIS got my AR-11 and I-865 (had to file those, since we are moving). How long does that take?

4) Move into our new house next week...better get packing!

5) Catch up on vj and then get some very-much needed sleep in between feedings and diaper changes....

Stay tuned for more updates...... :star:

Good luck Everyone, with your immigration journeys too!
