T-minus 24 hours til departure....

OK, so up until tonight when I packed and was getting SUPER excited that in just a few days we're going to meet Miss T, to be named Katie Allison, I was SO stressed.  I think it's just my personality to be stressed out.  Aaron's the laid back one in our family.  I honestly believe that is why we are such a good couple....because we balance each other out.  Well, my newest friend and (we're becoming very close friends), Paola calmed me down as we did errands to get ready for this trip on Thursday.  She is so grounded and sweet and makes me feel so LESS stressed no matter what is going on in life at the moment.  So, thank you Paola!  I'm glad we met through the Key Spouse program at Wright-Patterson AFB.


I wanted to share a few outfits we bought to take to the orphanage for our future little princess to wear.  I hope she likes them and that they fit her.  By the way, several of these things were brand new and I scored BIG time at Once Upon a Child, a children's and infant's consignment shop five minutes from our home.  I wanted to buy all the cute clothes and had to exercise self-control.  Since Katie will be our first child, I will find it hard to not want to buy her the cutest outfits.  Perhaps it's a good thing this is a used consignment shop.  Oh, I have pink hair bows to go with her outfits!!!!!  

By the way, I LOVE Winnie the Pooh & Tigger too!!!!  While we're in Russia, we're hoping that we can do updates from Vladivostok about the first trip.  Now, it is definitely time for some sleep after a midnight snack/meal.
