Well, the great computer caper was solved and the documents were printed and taken to passport office. In about two hours we are going to get our baby boy!! YYYYYEEEEEAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!!
I just really can't believe that it is actually happening. Last night was our last night of uninterrupted sleep for a while, but I was so excited that I kept waking up about every hour. I guess the body has a way of telling you that a storm is coming.... maybe something more like a hurricane. Whatever, bring it on!! R.J. was up at 5:00 am and made me finally get out of bed to go get breakfast at 7:00. He is trying to be more cool and in control, but I know that he is equally, if not more, excited than I am. If that can really be possible.
Last night was fun. We went to dinner with two other families that are here adopting. In a big group, we decided to take a cab and go out for dinner. We had a great time. One was a single woman from D.C. (Andrea) who is adopting a two year old, which will be her second one from Russia. She says that it is a lot more difficult process today than it was 3 years ago. The other couple is from Tallahassee, FL and they are adopting 3 brothers (ages 5, 8 & 12.. I think). Their names are Richard and Jodi. All are really nice people and we had a great time sharing stories.
We are on our way to the grocery store to pick up food and juice for A.J.. We also have to get a crib up to the room for RJ to sleep in, since A.J. will be taking his spot in the bed. (HA HA.. Nobody tell RJ what my plans are, all of his buddies with kids have warned him already, so I think he already knows). Everything is great!! We are so fortunate!! We will be home soon and can't wait to see everyone.
