We leave friday- and will have Eva on July 2nd- wish us luck!!!!!

Did you hear that?

That was the economy getting a huge boost from all of the money I am hemorrhaging right now.....holy cow these tickets are expensive in the summer........don't get me wrong- she's worth it and we are totally going- we are just going to be staying closer to home for the rest of the summer!!!!!

CA DATE!!!!!!

Our CA date is July 11th- YES, I KNOW.....that is really soon! we are looking at leaving either on the 30th or the 27th.....we should know more tomorrow- my husband can only do the beginning of the trip so the quick turn around is due to that.....we'll have her in our arms before her 2nd birthday- I can not believe the journey to our daughter is almost over........I feel like a child on a huge sugar high- and so much to do but I have no idea where to begin!!!!!!! WE ARE GOING TO CHINA!!!!!!!!!

GUESS WHO IS GOING TO CHINA?

YES! Our TA came yesterday- what a crazy day- we are trying to figure out CA dates, airline tickets and last minute items that we should bring- it is a crazy happy time in our house!!!!!!

Visa

I didn't know the visa would be so pretty! NOW COME ON TA.........

Today's motto....

someone is reporting their LOA is 5/18 and they received their TA today.....
breathe, refresh, breathe, refresh, scream, breathe refresh, breathe, refresh, scream.........and repeat!

Note to self.......

When making coffee for the next morning- regardless of how tired you are make sure you place the carafe under the coffee pot and DO NOT leave it in the drying rack.......or at least do not set the coffee maker to auto- it is not a good start to your day or a good use of white towels.

Happy Birthday Monkey Man!!!!!

I can not believe you are 4 today little man! You have changed so much but that smile still lights up a room! You bring us so much joy- we love you to the moon and back- have a great birthday sweet boy.......
