Hello to everyone! Sorry I have been missing in action for so long. There is so much to talk about!
Immigration:
As you may know I began my husband's immigration paperwork at the end of December 2011. He had his first interview on March 15th, which he was denied a visa but approved to file the I-601 waiver. We already knew this would happen, and everything was on the line to hear that "approved to file waiver" bit. I was able to call and bug and bug every morning until I finally got a sooner waiver appointment date! For April 2nd 2012! I was able to get my husband's waiver to him via DHL and he made his way to Ciudad Juarez for the second time.
But alas this last Friday we finally heard from USCIS. My husband's case has been "referred". Meaning that I have to send in additional evidence, and we should hear something in 9-10 months :( But we can do this! ....It's a really good thing you can't see how much of a mess I actually am. Being Pregnant doesn't help.
Pregnancy:
I am unaware if I had mentioned that I am pregnant. Yes again. This was not planned. I became pregnant 4 months after the twin ectopic pregnancy, so in December... 2 weeks before I left to go back to the US to continue working. Go figure. I am very happy to bring this baby into the world, though the timing isn't the greatest. Though I guess when is it ever?
So I am currently 24 weeks pregnant, due September 1st. I was hoping to have my hubby before the baby decided to make its debut, but that's not happening, and I can't stay pregnant forever. So for now I am at a loss of what I should do. I have been working, and will continue to do so to save up much needed money. Because I got the position I was working before we had first left for Puerto Vallarta, I qualify for my maternity leave. So it looks like I may be having the baby in the US, and spending my maternity leave in Mexico with the hubby. But again, I'm not sure if this is the set plan because things change and my pregnancy hormones are very unbalanced. A part of me is currently debating birth in Puerto Vallarta. We will see. and I will let you know as time gets closer and my hormones start freaking out more...
Loved reading your update <3 It has been a while. I can relate with the immigration - it sucks!!
