An agency confirms they have something en route that is scheduled for delivery tomorrow.
I do not know if this agency is expecting TA’s from the last batch. If they are, then there is a good chance this is TA’s. If not, it still does not mean it is referrals, but it gets just a bit more exciting.

I can’t even spell I’m so excited.

babyshae & adoptingliberty Congrats on being sooooo close!! Yea for all the soon to be parents! This is such a fun time of the month! Come on referrals. I love seeing all the sweet little children! :)

Okay, separate topic from the package…I saw the ad right under this post was for voting for who was going to carry the olympic torch in China, and they were down to 18 finalists, when I checked who they were, the Half the Sky woman (Janny?) wasn’t there! How could she not be after getting so many votes? does anyone know what happened?
8 days…don’t know whether to be happy or sad about that…with a 2/24/06 LID….
October 31st, 2007 at 11:22 am
I have to say “hey” to you babyshae - we brought our baby Shae home a year ago last week! Congratulations on your upcoming referral - enjoy this exciting time - there is truly nothing like it :)

Have TAs and referrals every arrived together????
October 31st, 2007 at 11:45 am
lovemygirls,
Congrats on your little one. I’m looking forward to being on that side of things although I’m trying to enjoy this part too since I know it will be over soon. My baby Shae is actually named after me :) Shaye. My dad used to call me baby Shae so there’s a double meaning. Our baby’s full name is ShaeLynn after me and, believe it or not, my mother in law. I’m one of the few people who actually likes my mother in law.

Oh , and by the way…COME ON REFERRALS!!!!!!!!!
October 31st, 2007 at 12:26 pm
Bring on the packages!!!!!! How will we ever sleep! We should have a sleep over and watch movies all night! Too bad we live in seperate parts of the country.

I’m a LONG way from referral, but last night we were carving our pumpkin (inside) and I felt a tickle…and there was a little ladybug on me! Now I hadn’t been outside for about 2 hours, so it either had been clinging to me really well, or just biding it’s time to present itself.
Here’s hoping that it means good news and SOON for everyone 12/1-8/2005!

These days, hearing cutoffs and LID- not-ins also usually means the package is ready for mailing OR about to be OR mailed.
We Nov 2005 wait-ers saw a pattern of TAs followed closely be referrals. Not always but often, especially recently.
So even if these are TAs (& we Nov05s sure, um, hope they are), then referrals will be close behind.
CONGRATULATIONS to those in the first week of December–!!!!!!
Dec 8th cutoff (if true) sounds on par with most of Nov 05 pace–so hope Dec 05 referrals (at least) continues steady. People LID in the last week of Nov05 were able to correctly predict the month of their own referral from the cutoff pace set in the first significant November05. A relief to be able to plan a little.
lots of joy about to hit the December room!! FINALLY. It’s happening to you, too.

re. package:
Seems that TAs (a bunch anyway) were yesterday signed,
and yesterday or today mailed. Nobody from the last referral batch has received a TA yet, as far as I know. So TAs definitely on the way.
October 31st, 2007 at 12:58 pm
Congrats to all of the Dec. Families boy I wish I could be a fly on the wall in the Dec room to wittiness all of the excitement…

I think there is more fear and caution in the december room than excitment at this point. We have learned better than to count our chickens before they hatch!

I agree with threblue..TAs are coming…I kept track for a few months re: the timing of TAs and referrals…and typically referrals followed TAs by about 3-5 business days (but this was just over the summer…I did not watch as closely prior to this)…so if TAs start arriving today or tomorrow; it makes sense that referrals will come Monday or Tuesday…hopefully sooner, because my instincts tell me that they are both coming together this month…
October 31st, 2007 at 1:45 pm
That’s it adomom! I think I wore myself out last month! I feel the excitement building again and sometimes it’s overwhelming for me, like thinking about referrals in the air or soon to be. WOW! This is really happening-FINALLY!

I sure hope TA’s and Referrals will arrive tomorrow. This is just so exciting for all my November/December friends!

Still hope it is tomorrow though.

kellieinportland, the lenovo poll (with the torch in the advertisement) is a different contest, underwritten by lenovo. the one where amy is found is the china daily poll. 2 different contests. don’t worry, amy was leading last i looked
October 31st, 2007 at 4:19 pm
SORRY, just ignore my message, first i got amy/jenny mixed up, adn maybe i’m wrong about 2 separate contests, although i could swear the expat contest was different from the lenovo contest, but any ways, just ignore me. sorry, can’t erase previous message.

Gotchaback,
I love the idea of the 8th beeing included. I hope this dream will finally come true, but I am afraid of getting excited…yet…

Some one in the November room has reported that they received TAs today…YIPEE….that means referrals ASAP; I hope; hopefully by friday….otherwise Monday for sure…
Congrats to all the new parents…
CTG…going to China …in less than a week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
October 31st, 2007 at 6:52 pm
Congratulations to everyone that will be getting their referrals
in this new batch. You have certainly waited long enough.
October 31st, 2007 at 7:18 pm
For those who received TAs, is your agency expecting referrals? What about those expecting a package of referrals, are TAs due also?
My agency is expecting referrals but we do have a TA that is due. So that doesn’t help me any!!
My agency gets their packages in the morning so by noon I might have something to report :)
October 31st, 2007 at 9:28 pm
I’m officially insane now.
November 1st, 2007 at 2:34 am
Any package is a good package… right?!
Fingers crossed! Either TAs or Referrals - its all good!
November 1st, 2007 at 6:50 am
No news of packages ariving here in the UK.
I’m waiting for all you lovely American cousins to wake up and give us some news LOL.
