How the wait has been going lately...

There are times when the wait is unbearable, but we try to enjoy the present while we continue to prepare for the future with our precious child.

We try to enjoy our alone time and our quiet evenings because soon there will be a little someone who will be keeping us busy-busy :0)

We continue to check things off from our to-do list

So far…

We finished baby-proofing our home and purchased gifts for key adoption-related people in China

    As for the adoption process...

          Our NVC letter was received and delivered right on schedule(article 5 is supposed to be picked up on July 12^th  :o)

    We received our passports  and Visas~ Woohoo!

    Today we requested our last baby update before we travel to China- 

    What else...

Of course shopping sprees are still a favorite of mine :0) Sure you knew that already…

We started to “practice our packing skills”  just to get a sense of what we will actually take with us and what will stay- OMG we have one luggage 46 pounds worth of baby paraphernalia. OK we know we have to take some stuff out – we know that’s a little ridiculous :0)

We turn to God for peace and guidance. We continue to pray for our child’s health and well-being  we pray for her foster family, we pray for the people responsible for our adoption process and we pray some more…

Not sure what’s going to happen once the US Consulate in China moves and how things will move along once they re-open, but we know we are getting so close to our daughter…

We are so excited and we just can’t hide it!!!!!

We’re coming baby girl!
