Gosh, it feels like all we do now is shop! We were out and about running errands for 7 hours today. That's right, 7 hours! In 95 degree heat! Ugh. But at least it was all exciting shopping. We are getting the final few necessary items for our trip. Today we picked up gifts for Truman's nannies (we settled on lotion gift packs and money), a pack-n-play (we have decided to bring one with us to Ethiopia since a crib might not be available in our guesthouse), clothes for us (including a dress for Alison to wear to court), another small suitcase, books to read on the plane (because you all know we don't already have too many books), and more toys for our boy (we couldn't help ourselves!). We also got our last necessary form notarized (the woman at the bank actually knows us now because we have had to have so many forms notarized - today when she saw us walk in she asked how the adoption was going).
Tonight we have been very focused on packing. It's actually going very well. We might even have enough room for everything - yay! We know we are completely overpacking, but we feel like we would rather have more than we need than less. We'll probably regret it when we are in the airport trying to each carry over 100 pounds of luggage with us. We'll definitely need to take advantage of the porters at the Ethiopian airports!
Oh, and we finalized plans for a taxi to pick us up to take us to the airport...in 2 days! Woohoo!!!!
