Exciting!  My fingers are crossed for you both.  :)  I know the waiting feels like forever, even if it's just a few days, haha.

It certainly DOES feel like forever.  I just got the email stating that my docs have been opened and sorted for the ECO to look through.  I only sent them Monday, but it feels like it took forever to get that! 

Again, good luck to alibaba and aricarai.

Yay, kbee417! I must admit though, I got excited when I saw you posted in here because I thought it meant you received a successful decision. Any day now I'm sure. Fingers crossed for you!  :)
