So super excited for you... can't believe it is your turn after such a wait... I remember watching December people getting theirs and thought I would never see someone I knew get their referral... am SO happy for you all...
You are so very organised!! Can I make a suggestion though?? Ditch the formula - it weighs a tonne and you are better off keeping her on whatever she has been using in China (your guide will let you know if you ask). We took two cans of formula with us and didn't touch it - ended up leaving it in our hotel room before we flew home!

Looks great... although I do feel strongly that you didn't pack nearly enough pandas. I only counted three.
I can't believe it's time.
Holy crap! I forgot how much stuff you need when you travel with a small child!!! You're such a crack-up, you are so organised it just about hurts my head! I'm so excited for you and can't wait til you get home. I can imagine Miss M and H-Man will be very impatiently waiting for your return. Who's looking after them? When do you get home? It's still hard to believe that after all this time you're finally just hours away from getting your beautiful baby girl. Hope you're sleeping well....even in the heatwave (which I am just so completely sick of!). Lots of love, Jen
Oh my goodness - 8 days! I can't believe it. And you're looking so organized. I'm going to have to post a pic of Emma's room so you can see what a mess I am with double your time left. Hopefully it will come together soon.
I am so excited for you!!!!!!
Luv, I am just begoggled. I am going to have to steal the photo of your packing and post it next to my entire packing. LOL.
My China trip has an underlying motto: "Walmart, here I come." (Hope it pans out like I expect it will ;0)
I'm just so excited that you're almost on that plane to your girl!!!
I'm going to be back writing down your list! I feel so un-prepared!!!! Yikes!!
love your list..This helps me as we leave in less than 2 months. Glad to see you taking baby clothes..Everyone is telling me not to, but to buy cheap clothes in China but I want to bring some of the gifts we have gotten
You look like you are ready to go! I am so excited for you!!!
How wonderful that you are ready for travel to China and your little one!! I have followed your tale/blog for sometime and love your enthusiasm. You have quite the list, not sure I took that much, maybe I did!! Looking forward to your travel.
Another Ohio...ian.
OMG!!! Packing!!! So exciting!!! That looks like a ton of stuff! All that cute baby stuff brings me back .... wah!
8 sleeps ....
I think we will just call you Mary Poppins! Can you also fit a hat rack in that bag? I'm thoroughly impressed that you can get all that in that bag!
Congratulations and happy traveling! Enjoy and savor every moment of this time. It is precious. Take lots of pictures and video for us (oh, and yourself too ;)
Congratulations and happy traveling!
Yes, take lots of pictures and videos. Your family and your little one would love them years form now....
So exciting!!!
You are going super prepared. I know right now I'm looking at it and thinking Holy Crap! But when it comes to my turn I'm sure I'll be packing as much stuff.
