The Count Down is On.... 4 days to go!

Well.... things seem to be a go this time around. Relief to hear considering what happened with our last cancelled trip. We are expected to meet our little boy on Valentines Day. We never realized the significance of the day until people started bringing it to our attention. What a great day to fall in love!

We spent this past long weekend hanging out with our good friends, the LaPrades. While they brought the cold weather from the north, we managed to go to the beach and hang out. A nice distraction. Jordan keeps asking where her Madde friend is. Thanks for a great time! (currently 3 days sober.)

Jordan and I spent the day at the beach today with my friend Amy and her two beautiful girls. It was a nice relief from the packing and paper trail process that is associated with this adoption.

Everyone keeps asking if I am packing. I just can't wrap my arms around packing for 20 below weather. Yikes. Stay tuned. Will keep you posted on the Russian happenings. We do have pictures, but will save them to post once we meet him.

I hope Nana and Pop Pop are catching up on their sleep. They will need it next week. Jordan is just a little too excited to have them come and stay. We also are lucky enough to have Gram and Coach come the weekend after we get home.

Hope you are all doing well. We just want everyone to know how much we appreciate all of your support during this process. Hard to believe that last year I was worried I wouldn't make it to be be in my girlfriends wedding in Texas. (Rock on Shelby!) Almost a full year later we are finally traveling.

Stay tuned....

I can't believe you are finally leaving!! But you better get your rear in gear and start packing girl (I'd come help, but my back....)
Can't wait to hear the details of the little Prince and your trip, thank goodness for the wonderful Russian vodka to help keep one warm when it is -27 outside!
