Travel dates!
We are scheduled to first hold our precious Jude on Monday, February 11th! We are planning to arrive in Addis on the 9th and then pace around for about 40 hours. I can't wait to pace! Now I need to start packing and organizing and doing all the stuff I was too terrified to do before. I'm a backpacker at heart (meaning I'm intensely loyal to the practice of not bringing anything, it really cuts down on the actually packing- a process I'm not stellar at) how do I pack for this? How much stuff does Jude really need? A bottle and books, right? Hmm...I have a lot to learn. Watch and laugh!

There are some great lists out there that I've seen for packing and tips etc... Let me know if you want a heads up on it and I'll forward. Does your agency send you a list of any sort??? February 11th!!! Darn, you'll be away when we get our referral on the 9th! We can celebrate when you return! OMG...you're leaving in three weeks - whoa!

We are planning to travel a week a head of time; before picking up our daughter...I understand you delema with packing. We may camp out a couple of days and the guide reminded me that we needed to bring a backpack. Yes, bring a backpack all the way to Ethiopia. I feel like I am packing my whole house up. Cannot wait to meet up with you guys.
