Getting so excited!!!

We're down to EIGHT days before we leave and I'm getting absolutely giddy with excitement!! I can't wait to meet our baby girl!!

I'm feeling fairly well prepared at this point. The past few days have been filled with getting the kids situated and arranged to stay busy. My mom and dad will be staying at the house with them and various friends and family have been "scheduled" to keep them occupied throughout the whole time we're gone. I'm so thankful for everyone that has stepped forward to help us...we appreciate it SO much.

Today, I'm washing bottles and little itty bitty baby clothes. :) It finally feels SO real!
