Countdown to Cameron

With just about a month to go until we travel to adopt Cameron things are getting pretty busy around here.  Lots of paperwork, shopping and preparing still left to do.  But, for a four year old a month is an eternity.  To help Grace wrap her little brain around our remaining time until travel Jen created a Countdown to Cameron Calendar.  Grace puts a stamp or a sticker on the calendar each day to mark off the time.

Potential Travel Date!!!

Last week we got our passports and visas back from the Chinese consulate so we are approved to travel to China.  We also heard from our agency last week that they expect to have a fairly large group traveling to China with us which means there will be a doctor traveling with us.  They emailed us again this evening to notify us that they are planning to have us leave for China on August 23rd.

This is a little later than we were hoping for as Grace will miss her first week of school.  But we can't pass up the advantages of traveling with a group and with a doctor.  Nothing is set in stone yet but it looks like in just a little over a month we will be in China meeting our little guy!!!!
