Just a few more days!!

Just a few more days until we meet our sweet baby. We will leave next Thursday and will return home on August 14th. I have most of Allie's stuff packed and now I am working on mine. I will work on getting Dalton and Brians clothes this weekend. I will certainly have to monitor Todd's packing because he always over packs!! We should receive our in China arrangements today. It has been really hard to sleep with so much going on in my mind. (Better get use to that huh?) Hopefully I will be able to figure out how to email to this blog and keep it updated in China. If any readers know how to do that please leave a comment. 5 more days at work!!

We have travel dates!!

We finally know when we are leaving!! We have to be in Hong Kong on July 31st so we will leave Norfolk on July 30th. We can leave Hong Kong on August 14th after 1130 am. So we will be arriving home on August 14th. Time to get packing!!

TRAVEL APPROVAL'S ARE IN

YES!!! Just one more step to take before we can book our flights. We hope to know our travel dates by Wednesday or Thursday of next week. The plan is for us to leave the last week of July. (Sorry about band camp Dalton) I cant wait to meet all of my travel buddies!! It's finally happening guys so hang in there. Have fun tomorrow Delaine!!

Visa's are in!!

Boy I'm glad our passports are back in our hands. They are officially China ready!! Carol at Dependable Courier Service is the bomb!!

We can't wait to have our baby home!

The last two weeks have really flown by. I just hope the next two weeks goes just as fast. The boys will be in camp all of next week so I'm gonna get this house in tip top shape. After cleaning I will pull out the luggage and start to figure out how to pack and stay under 44 lbs. I know for certain if I leave all of my lotions, make-up and hair products home I will be under weight for certain!! We will post again when we receive travel approval!
