The first steps in this process are having a POA, power of attorney signed. Since we cant be there, we have to give an attorney legal permission to act on our behalf during the process. Ours arrived in Guatemala on 8/22 and usually takes about 21 days to get translated and officially registered.
Next step is DNA. They require the birthmom to prove by DNA from a mouth swap that she is indeed the actual birth mother for that child. (At the end of the process we will need to do another DNA test but on baby only. To prove that baby that is leaving the country with us is in fact the same baby.).
Here she is, actually awake a bit again!
