A Picture is Worth...

This week has been filled with long "to do" lists. Coordinating the kid's schedules while we're traveling, getting the house "ready" for our live-in sitters, completing yet another round of paper work to get notarized for our Embassy Appointment, filling prescriptions for us and Judah, finishing up the 14 "required" gifts we need to bring with us, deciding what to pack; what not to pack, coordinating with the bank to get US currency dated 2004 or newer (strange, but at this point we don't ask questions), guessing on what size clothing & shoes to bring with (it's hard shopping for a child you've never seen before!), putting finishing touches on Judah's bedroom ... and the list goes on, and on, and on...

and then ... we get this new picture...


and I am reminded once again that this temporary "crazyiness" is soooo worth it ...

He is absolutely gorgeous! I can't wait to meet him in less than two weeks.

Getting pictures this week certainly did help with the craziness!

How exciting!!! I have been checking your blog every now & then to see where you are at in your process. All the craziness of getting ready is so worth it when you hold that little boy in your arms! Have fun at the Sadula!! (The beds are extremly hard, unless they changed it & got mattresses to go on the box spring, but it is very nice!)
