Going Native

Update on the passport front: within 15 minutes of posting about BY's documentation story, I got a phone call from a (courier? mailaman?) saying he was at my address with registered mail, but he didn't see my house, could I please come out? Sure enough, it was BY's Israeli passport!

At his American passport meeting, the security guards kept directing us to the visa line, and I had to explain to guards at both points that we were actually there for a US passport. Then, when we were called to the counter, the consular assistant asked which one of us was passing on the US citizenship. She seemed pleasantly surprised when Husbinator and I exchanged a puzzled look before answering, "Um, both of us!"

For those who are curious, the consulate employees thought that mailing BY's passport should be okay time-wise, but suggested we come pick it up ourselves to be safe. So now we're just waiting for a phone call/email telling us to come and get it, and then our documentation will be all in order! (I expect to get that notification early next week.)
