Confirmed Travel and an Update!

Thank Goodness I've started packing!! Christy called today and confirmed our travel. Surprise...our Embassy Appointment is a week earlier than anticipated. Wow! This makes our "Gotcha Day" the 22nd of November.


Our little man is also growing thanks to Hannah's Hope. He is now a little over 17 pounds, which is a big jump from the 11 pounds he started at! It sounds like he eats a lot...every 2-3 hours around the clock. He also drinks milk-based formula! Yipeee...because this is what a bought a ton of. We were told he has the biggest smile and that we can approach him and pick him up right away! He also likes to be to be rocked and sung to, as well as listen to classical music. Classical Music...this is great.
I am so thankful we bought our new rocking recliners...I have a feeling they will get tons of use.
Here we come Addis Ababa........I can't believe this!

This is so exciting! The feeling of holding the little boy you have loved for so long is one of the most precious moments you will ever experience. I cried more than I did when my bio daughter was born! Congratulations!!
