WOW!!! That has come round so fast!!!
I think I have got everything sorted out now, well fingers crossed that I have anyway, I'm running out of time to do anything else!!! The suitcase is as packed as it can be apart from the last minute bits and bobs. I've got the very important Power of Attorney and letter from the DCSF all safely packed in my carry on. The Guest House confirmed this morning that we are booked in, and they will pick us up at Bole Airport. Mr Messy and Baby Sis have sorted out when/where he will pick her up tomorrow evening. LMS has started packing to set off home on Thursday (arrive here Friday after an overnight at Grandma's House). I keep trying to think of things that I still need to do and there isn't anything!!! Which makes me worry and think I've forgotten something lol. But the only thing left to do is to make the most of the day and a half left with my family, and to get VERY excited about going to see our gorgeous new child at the end of this week :-)
Only THREE more sleeps until I can meet our new little one WOW!!!
Look out little one Mummy and Auntie Baby Sis are coming :-)

Been following your story for a while off and on, via the China Adopt yahoo group - so excited that you are soon going to be on that plane. Such an incredible feeling - enjoy the moment

Hi S,
DCSF said that they don't issue that letter any more, its part of their old process! But I begged and they sent me one anyway :-)
I'm hoping to blog while I'm away, but I'm not sure if I'll be able to (internet problems in the area of Addis I'm going to).
Love
Janet

I'm so excited for you!@!! Went shopping today for baby and little prince. Got some cute stuff!! Will be sending a package pretty soon now!!
Love You bunches!!!!!
Oh my Janet--It's hard for me to believe you're actually going to meet your daughter. This past 20 months although long seems like a skip in our lives--truly a wonderful skip as I've gotten to know you and your sweet family. I soooo can't wait to see you and your daughters first moments together! Can't wait!
Enjoy the last days with your family of 5, cause soon it will be 6!
Hi WL,
Yes its all come together perfectly now :-) I was panicking that it wouldn't, but it has :-) And now I can go off and meet our new little one :-) And don't worry I'll be giving lots of hugs from everyone - any excuse for more hugs really lol
Love

Hi Kate,
I'll try my best to update from Addis, but there are internet/phone problems over there in the area I'll be in, so I'm not sure what I'll be able to do.
