Cockadoodledoo Thank goodness the lawn is mowed! ;-)
We're up on east coast time and it's about twenty minutes before you have to leave. Mentally sending you prayers and good wishes. And a cup of Dunkin's Donuts coffee so you don't have to spend any "crisp, new bills" while you wait at the gate at Seatac. The excitement in RI has built to a crescendo. We're excited, worried, excited, happy. So glad you have this blog so we can follow along. Love, April
Have a great flight We will be looking forward to hear about you new adventure and we hope some pictures as well. We wish you well and a safe journey.
Your extended family in Airzona

Beautiful It's obvious how much work this special paint job - I cannot wait to do something tangible to express love to our future children. I'm inspired!
Hey Brian and Katrinka,
What a beautiful room! You've created a space that is fun to look at, with just the right amount of "nook" for the times Tig will need it. My favorite part is the mirror at 23".
After Tig settles in, I'd really love an interior design consult from the two of you and the 6-and-under-6 tm panel.
Love you,
April
Love the room! As a big fan of making kids' rooms fun...you have done a fantastic job with the painting!!! Love it! Every kid loves a nook, too. Can't wait to see it all furnished with Ikea and Tigist!!!
packing I can't imagine trying to pack for this trip... what do you pack for your new toddler!!???!!! There wouldn't be any room in the suit cases for our stuff, they would be full of stuff for her!
I assume your adoption agency has given you some ideas of what to bring for her.
So exciting!!!
Katrinka and I have been preparing for our Ethiopian journey to complete Tigist's adoption for nearly nine months. After all the expectation and emotional ups and downs, we are in the final weeks before we travel! This blog is as much for Tigist as it is for our family and friends...it is our first attempt at blogging, so hopefully we stick to it and document our experience well.... full info
