We’re Going to China!

It has been almost a year since we first saw his little face on our agency’s website and we are finally GOING TO CHINA! We depart September 1st and will change planes 300 times before landing in Beijing on September 2nd. Our agency hasn’t supplied the in China portion of our travel yet but I do know that we will get to meet Teegan on September 6th, Labor Day. How appropriate is that? George will leave for home on the 8th to rescue our wonderful sitters from our two beautiful (but wild) girls. Tara and I will continue on to Guangzhou to complete the medical and visa stuff. After that we will take 300 more flights back to the US where we most likely will miss half our flights. It won’t matter by then because we will be so numb with travel that we won’t feel anything.


Meanwhile, back home on the ranch, the girls will be starting their 2nd week of school as we depart for China. I’m afraid of the repercussions that might occur when a kindergartener and a first grader begin the school year with Mommy and Daddy in China and with the anticipation of a new sibling. Pray for their teachers and sitters!



Stay tuned for more exciting pre-travel details, like packing!
