international adoption is a different ball game!
I know that currently LDSFS will only let you adopt domestic newborns if you are no longer capable of having your own. However, I think that taking a child out of a too-full orphanage is a completely different story. If you feel like it is good for your family to do that, and you have prayed about it, then do it.
What is your motivation for adopting internationally? All the adoption books I have read warn that if a person thinks they are doing a good deed by rescuing a child from foster care/orphanage, then they don't have the right spirit about adoption. It should only be about wanting to parent, and finding the family that fits the child's needs.
I believe that the Spirit will lead you to your children where ever they are, but, IMO, it's not a good sign if DH isn't on board. I would say fast and pray and keep us posted!
