Here we go!


The packing frenzy has begun! Well acutally it started weeks ago, making piles, compiling lists, sorting, buying...and now it's time to put it all in 3 suitcases! Yikes! I'm trying to remember whatever we don't pack we can purchase there...except for my precious gumdrops!
We're off tomorrow (Friday) for a 6 am flight to San Francisco, then a direct flight from there to Beijing! We are scheduled to arrive in Beijing at 4 pm on Saturday the 20th.
We will then spend the night in Beiing, and fly to Hohhot to meet Max, which will be on Monday, Feb 22. :)
The lovely Krystal will be staying at our house, starting tonight, with Princess Juliette! My super-mom will be helping on the weekends. Thanks Krystal and Mom!!!
Thanks for following along on our trip, and for all of your well wishes! Talk to you next from Beijing!

  3. This is a fabulous "view" into the world of bringing Max home! Also, I'm so glad that I've actually been to Hohhot and can so imagine you there. I can't, though, imagine the thrill of getting to meet Max for the first time. What a union this will be!
    My best and love, Randy
