Well, i've been up since 5:30. I heard something and then i was awake and my mind wouldn't shut off! Sleepless nights are already here!!!
We are FINALLY packing for our trip to bring Avery home. What a whirlwind the past days have been. That phone call on tuesday changed everything for us! We are going to really get our little girl!!! I don't think it has really hit me yet. My emotions seem stuck or something. Keith has had plenty of tears of joy this week, but actually i'm the one holding it together. Maybe i'm still numb. The wait has been incredibly long, more so than we ever anticipated. I think i have just gotten tired of being let down, and I still have my guard up.
I put the bedding on the bed finally yesterday and started pulling things to pack. I have WONDERFUL friends who gave me a surprise "Chinese"-themed shower this past friday and really jump started Avery's wardrobe, along with more gifts from very dear friends last night. Thanks girls for everything!!
I am really happy for you and your family. I really enjoyed the shower. I will miss you while you are gone.

We're so excited to meet Avery. She is a lucky little girl, very much anticipated and loved already!
ReplyDeleteSo happy to see you with Avery she is a doll baby. All of us looked at her this morning and brought tears and smiles to the office. I will keep in touch.
