Just one more week...

It's crazy to say "just one more week" in reference to meeting my daughter for the first time. Granted, at this point we still remain cautiously excited and optimistic. Everything with the adoption has gone so smooth, it's hard to see a bump in the road, but we do know it's possible. 


I have talked with our birth mother weekly {sometimes more than once a week} and we text regularly. Since she lives 3 hours away we will meet her for the first time when she is in labor. 


We are waiting on the call and we will jump in the car and head that way. To think that it could be any day is so crazy. 


We are ready, the car seat is ready to be put in the car and the diaper bag is packed. The suit case isn't loaded just yet, but it's in the corner of the room and waiting for us.  Perhaps I'll see what I can do this weekend. 


We were given tons of clothes, formula and diapers. The only things that I have purchased as of today have been the following {among a few other small items}. 


Muslin Blankets from aden+anias. We chose the pack with Pink Elephants... of course. Everything that sweet Kyah chooses must have an elephant. That boy and his love for elephants. 

And then I snagged this Limited Edition Wrap made by LovelyDuds for baby girl. It's made of organic bamboo cotton. Me and sweet thing will get to snuggle from the very beginning. Not to mention... stylishly snuggle. 
We were gifted the most adorable Big Brother and Little Sister outfits, along with personalized burp cloths from Emily over at Emily's Expressions! They are to die for and I can't wait to share them with you! 

We have the worlds greatest friends that are loving on us and supporting us throughout this journey. We are just about able to fund our entire adoption on the proceeds made from Dub Lane Designs. If you have not already purchased a wristlet, feel free to do so now. 100% of the funds are being applied to our adoption and towards travel costs. 


We are feeling so very blessed and are anxiously awaiting the day that we can share more details and photos with you.
