The news has arrived...we have a BABY!!

Well, with everything that has been going on with us in the past month I haven't had time to update our blog, so, here it goes. On October 20, 2010 we got a phone call! Yes, we had a proposal!!!! We rushed home from work to meet our social worker who had the file of the child we would be adopting (how amazingly exciting that was!!) Since that day we have been filling out forms, writing letters, sending our baby a care package and crossing our fingers that we would be able to go to China before Christmas to receive our child! We got the news a couple of weeks ago that we would indeed be traveling to Beijing in December. The rush was on! We've had to book flights, line up a babysitter for our girls, get our flu shots and twinrix vaccinations, get our China entry visa's, fill out more forms and do lots of baby shopping not to mention christmas shopping!!! What excitement!
So now we are quickly getting prepared for the journey of a lifetime.....Check out our next post to meet our new little family member who we are more than thrilled to introduce!!
