Ramblings

We haven't been very good with putting updates on our blog of our preparation days, but we have been busy preparing for the imminent travel date - August 4th. It is hard to believe that we leave in another 12 sleeps :) and we will return in one month today!

The time since our referral has just flown by, and we certainly aren't wishing away our last few days as a childless couple, and all the freedom that that entails. But we are anxious at the same time to meet our daughters - we are so curious as to what they look like now.

Today we met with some scrapbooking experts who are going to put together a lifebook for Eliana and Olivia, so I look forward to an excellent one that our girls will be able to treasure for the rest of their lives. My co-workers were very generous and gave us a gift certificate to help make this possible.

We feel like our home is getting more children-ready each day that passes - the "to-do" list is finally shrinking!!! And Andrew has put the car seats in the van so we can now bring them home.

Now if only we can manage the heat while we are in China!!!
