Birth Certificate!!!


We received a copy of Anteneh's birth certificate today WITH OUR NAMES AS HIS PARENTS!!! That means there should be no more delays! Yahoo! This is a really bad scan of it-maybe it's just my imagination but he even looks cute as the dark blob as he appears here-haha! His name is Anteneh Daryn West, legally, until we change it to what we want it to be. They use the father's name until the child gets here and we file for citizenship in the U.S.. We also found out his birth date is October 24, 2003...He will turn 4 in the fall. We are not sure if that's an actual date or if it's a guessed date but our pediatrician will make sure it's accurate by doing some tests..we also found out he is from Harar, I think it's about an hour southeast of Addis, the capital...close enough that hopefully we will be able to visit the place he is from...we will have to see once we get there, I guess...It's another good day!!!!
