Two weeks and 6 days...

It's Wednesday morning and we are beginning our day a little more relaxed than the last few. This morning we don't actually have anything scheduled, so reading, drinking coffee slowly and enjoying the sounds coming from our little man will be the to - do list. The past few days were very busy for us. We have our applications all but ready to go for the visas. We will get our pictures taken today and then get our police reports too. Can you believe Jack has to have one as well? Funny! I hope we're not surprised and find our little 13 month old has a record already :)!

We finished at the apartment yesterday and will have the call from the Landlord that all is clear today. Having that behind us is really nice. Today we hope to finalize our airline tickets and it looks like we'll be able to get them for pretty cheap, but a funny thing happens when we get the cheaper ticket for Jack. Usually when you think of travelling with a child, you expect that you'll have a lot more luggage as they require so much stuff. Well on the airline we're looking at, he is only allowed one checked bag at 15 lbs. Shocking isn't it? That threw a loop in our plans but we'll adjust and make due!

Tomorrow will be our biggest "sort it out" day yet. We'll take everything we have been using at Mom and Dad's and pack up what isn't a necessity. Then we'll begin to distribute things into our totes and suitcases hoping to reach the right weight in each one. Thanks Heather Corley for watching Jack while all this happens. You are a life saver!

Thanks for praying for all these details! We'll keep you "posted"!

Bethany for us all!
