3 years and one more week!!!!

Yep, that's right, yesterday was officially 3 years of waiting. But, now we are just one week away from leaving and twelve days away from getting Jetta. Hard to believe in less than 2 weeks we will finally have her. I still can't believe it's finally gonna happen.

Now that the tickets and hotel are booked, the only thing left is to get everything in order at home before we go. We've been packing, and repacking trying to get (more like cram) as much as we can in a suitcase. We have packed Jetta's bag and boy I had no idea you had to take so much for a baby. However, I think this is unusual because we are basically taking everything to get us/her through for two weeks. So, with that in mind, we are hoping to clear out alot of room in our luggage over that two week period and fill it up with Chinese treasures.

So, now I just have to finish the next few days at work (3 to be exact) and then I'll be off for two months. I will return to work on the 4th of May. So, I'm really looking forward to having that time off to spend with Jetta and to get to know her better.

Surprisingly the last two weeks have gone by fairly fast, which helps things and hope the next week goes by as fast. So, for now, we just wait for the next 7 days (hard to believe we're into single digits with this wait) and then we can finally be done waiting and move onto the next chapter of our lives.

I may not post again before we go, as not much will change, but will definitely try to post once we get to China and start our trip to get Jetta. So, please check-in late next week and see how we're doing and then for sure on Monday the 9th, as that is the day we'll get Jetta and will have our first pictures of her as our daughter. Gosh that has such an amazing ring....our daughter! So, we'll be chatting with you again soon...thanks for following along.

I am praying your trip will be a very safe and productive one once you get to China.
We here in South Dakota are waiting patiently to see all of you getting back home. And anxiously awaiting to meet my new granddaughter.
So kiss her for us and we will have our little one to spoil so soon.
