Only a little over 23 days to go until we leave home for China! We are heading to the airport at about 2:30 am on the morning of the 31st, for check in at, yikes, 4 am).....Not that we're counting the days and hours or anything! And only about 26 days to go until we have Abigail in our arms! :)

To all our family and friends: Please feel free to post in the comments section or under the guestbook while we are away, as we will be checking in and updating the blog each day with our travel journal. Due to the tremendous time difference between here and China, this blog is the easiest way for us to keep in contact with everyone. We will be reading the posts and responding to as many as we can. This way, it will feel almost like you are all with us each step of the way as it is happening. :)
