Happy Post-Holidays!

Hoping everyone had a great holiday season. I unplugged for awhile and it was so nice to get away for awhile - I was on technology overload. But, I don't want anyone to feel neglected so I'm back. We had a fantastic travel meeting over the holidays regarding the trip to China and we got to meet our new case worker -she's fantastic. She really put us at ease and it will be so nice to have all our paperwork filled out. All we have to do is hand it in when we are in China.

We also met another family from WI that will be traveling with us to pick up their daughter. They seemed very nice and will be traveling with their kids - what an awesome experience!!

We got an update on Addie - she is getting bigger!!

weight: 14.9 lbs
height: 25.75 inches
teeth: 0
feet: 4 inches (big feet for such a little one) :)

We can't wait to hold her in our arms!! I look at her little picture daily and wonder what she is like, what she is doing, thinking, etc. Our best estimate for travel is the week of February 13th. Travel invitations should be coming soon as the next batch of referrals is expected this week.

We sent Addie and her caregivers a package right before the holidays - she should have it by now. We sent her a camera, blankie, teddy bear, and some treats for her caregivers. Hopefully they will have time to use the camera to snap some photos of Addie and her playmate around the orphanage.

We are getting really excited!!
