packing for China

after about a dozen trips to Target & Meijers (and a rather large order from CVS.com), I think we have everything we need for China.  I've got everything sorted into labeled ziplock bags.  I haven't packed any clothes yet -- for obvious reasons...we are still wearing most of what we will be taking.  I do have two weeks worth of matching outfits for the littles bagged & ready to go.

I called the bank today to order new money -- luckily, we only have to take spending money with us as our agency allows us to wire transfer all fees.  We should have our itinerary (basic -- what hotels we are staying in, when our flights are, etc....detailed itinerary comes when we get to Presley's province) today with the amount that needs to be wired.

2 weeks from today, we will be hugging baby sister.  Until that point - we have

  • 3 cheer practices
  • 1 baseball practice
  • at least 1 baseball game (if they lose, we play again -- if not, Coop misses the rest of the tourney)
  • 2 parties 
  • trying to plan a date night for the hubs & I

So Excited for you and your family. It brings back so many emotions I was feeling only 3 months ago. I often wonder if we will adopt again. :) Would Love to hear how God led yall to adopt again someday. :) God's Blessings and Safe Travel to you.
