Two Months!!

Hard to believe but in two months we will be family of four!

We  got our dates and are just waiting to book tickets.  We will fly to Toronto on March 21 (Caleb's Birthday) He is quite excited to have his birthday at Uncle Shawn's and Aunt LeHoa's. On March 22 (Caleb's Gotcha Day) we fly to Beijing will get there on the 23rd. Yep that's the next day. We will have one day to adjust to the time difference and than on the 25th we will fly to Hubei.

On the 25th Clara will be ours!


 Here is a map of where Clara is from. Caleb is from Guangdong which is down on the bottom.

Our Second Journey Begins

Hi well I am guessing there are a few of you out there checking this blog. I am going to try and update on a more regular basis. Plans are starting to speed up! We are finalizing travel dates this week!

Caleb is still not very excited about his sister arriving but he has been sorting through his toys and saying I can give soe to her. So maybe he is starting to accept it.

This week we sent a care package to Clara with an agency from China and USA. We chose what package we wanted to give her and were able to write her and her foster parents a letter. We sent her pyjamas, blanket, doll, instant camera-hopefully we will get this back full of pictures of her,candy and a photo album with pictures of us.

Before sending the package Ann asks the foster family if they want to update us on anything or send pictures. Well on Wednesday we got the best suprise! Three new pictures of Clara!




She received out package on Thursday!

Here is a picture of the care package we sent.
