It's Almost Here!

We have been busy busy busy getting ready for China, making flights, buying food, scheduling doctor appointments, picking out house colors, checking out wedding venues, oh...yeah, those last two have nothing to do with China, just stuff I'm trying to fit in!

Our itinerary looks like this:

May 31st: Fly to California and hopefully meet our new granddaughter

June 1st: Fly to Beijing through San Francisco, arrive June 2nd

June 3rd: Fly to Zhengzhou

June 4th: Meet Anna!!! She will be with us the rest of the trip.

June 14th: Adoption finalized in Guangzhou

June 16th: Fly to Shanghai and then Chicago and then home! Anna will be a US citizen when the plan touches down in Chicago!

Bill will watch Mia May 31- June 2nd and then Dar will fly out and watch her the rest of the time. I have such awesome siblings!!

We have been preparing Mia for life with another little by having a "pretend Anna" live at our house.

Anna received her first gift in the mail yesterday! Thank you Ibbetson and Migliorini families and Grossie.

News from the olders: Brittany and Joey are still waiting for little Avery to make herself known. Becky felt her baby move for the first last night!! They are having an ultrasound Monday and will hopefully find out the sex of the baby.
