who else is waiting for approval for DNA testing

Just curious to see who else is at the same point in their process. When I was paperchasing I thought I would feel we made progess when it was compiled and sent to Guatemala. Then I realized nothing could happen until it was translated. When that was done.....DNA testing could be done....but have to wait for approval. I am hoping that when the DNA testing is done I feel feel we are really getting somewhere. Everything else is paperwork, paperwork, paperwork!!!!

I bet it happens anytime for you. It took about a month for us to get approval and then I little longer for the test to be completed. It all happened so fast and you will feel like things are moving once it happens....because they are Good luck....
