I'm coming Brooke

I am so excited to tell everyone we got our approval to go pick up Brooke this morning. Yes, my bags are packed and I'm ready to go. I sent for my visa today and are hoping to get the date for the Giving and Receiving Ceremony tomorrow. I am hoping to leave on Wednesday and arrive on Friday, so I can acclimate to Vietnam and sight see a little before the ceremony. I will keep you posted. I'm coming Brooke!!!!!!!!

Brooke Turns One

Brooke turned one yesterday as most of the United States celebrated Independence Day. To celebrate, Jon and I along with my brother and future sister in law went shopping for birthday presents. We bought many "stimulating" and "sensory" toys as well as bath toys. Daddy picked out a special stuffed animal....guess what it is???? A cuddly frog:) for our little tadpole. I hope little Ms. Thi loves it as much as we love her. I also ordered her a Vietnamese doll from E-bay. I can't wait to bring her home. Let's keep our fingers crossed for good news this week. Happy Birthday Brooke Thi. We love you!!!!!
