TRAVEL DATES

We have official dates. We get our Bing March 9th, two days after her first birthday. We will fly to Hong Kong to stay for two days and meet the escorts. Then, we shall take the train to Guangzhou, mainland. We will stay there for several days until the paperwork, physicals, adoption ceremony and visas are completed. We return to Hong Kong to fly home. I can't wait to fly home with our little Bing Bing!

I have been practicing walking with my "iron baby" as Bob calls it. I put a 15 pound dumbbell in a hip carrier and walk down the lane, on the treadmill, and around the house. Good workout!

While in China, I will try to post as often as possible. Hopefully downloads will work fine. Look for the first post about March 7th!

This is it! I'm at work and you have just landed in Chicago on your way to Hong Kong. I've been at work 3 minutes and so far things are running very smoothly. HA! Don't worry about a thing. We have everything under control.
