China here we come!!!


Okay so this is just the beginning of the stuff to bring. It's like we are taking a pharmacy with us. I'm just about done packing all of our stuff and took a break to blog. I don't think I will have any extra time to do it tomorrow. We leave on Wed. the 27Th and fly to Washington DC and then on to Beijing. We will spend 3 nights in Beijing and then leave for Nanning. On June 1st we meet Kiana........:) We are in Nanning for 6 days and then on to Guangzhou for another 6 days. We come home through Chicago on June 12Th. I can't believe it. The time has FINALLY come....We are SO excited and anxious. We can't wait. Auntie Jenny & Uncle Chris bought us a notebook so we should be able to blog while we are gone. Keep checking in if we have free time (yeah right) we will blog w/pics. :) Thanks Auntie Jenny & Uncle Chris.... Oh and Tricia thanks for coming over at the last minute to help with the car seat...We are so clueless about all this stuff. I'm sure I will have many more questions along the way. Can't wait for ALL the girls to meet... & one more thanks to our parents for absolutely EVERYTHING you have done for us we couldn't of done this without you!!! Off to China...YEAH!!!

Yippee!!!!

Yippee...we got the news we've been waiting for. We finally received our travel approvals. Our agency has given us the date of June 10Th for our appt. with the consulate in Guangzhou , which means we have to be in Nanning by May 31st.
I know, I know I'm panicking too.....so with that said I have to really make some lists and get with it. We have SO much to do and so little time left to do it. Wish us luck!!!

Still Waiting

Well, normally I think we would of heard about our travel date by now. So I'm convinced that the Swine Flu has officially set us back...We are hoping to hear something by the end of next week. I can't believe our luck, well I can, but COME ON...
Kiana turned 17 months on May 5Th and I'm really hoping that we will be with her on the day she turns 18months (wishful thinking) The wait is a lot harder now that we know who she is. I want to bring her home now!!! As soon as we hear something we will post it.
