and the list grows

I have been starting to agonize over what we will be able to / need to take to China for our 3 week adoption trip. There are several on-line lists out there from other adoptive families, and many of them list the same things, but every once in a while I find something new. One common thing to take has been a copy of the dossier that was sent to China. Wow, this is a huge stack of papers, and considering the stict weight limits of luggage for in China travel (even more restrictive than USA flights), that's a lot of extra weight. Contacting my adoption agency, this is no longer required to bring, thank goodness. Since some of these lists I've looked at are 10 years old, I guess I will need to wait for the list from my adoption agency. I just want to try to get stuff bought a little at a time as we are waiting. Some things seem so obvious after someone else mentioned it - I knew I should bring bottles and Cheerios, didn't think to put the Cheerios INSIDE the bottles in the suitcase to save space - duh, seems like a no brainer now.

Molly's nursery is 95% done, just need a door put up and the trim around the doors. Zach gets more excited by the day asking me when we are going to go to China and bring home the baby. I hate the waiting, and the uncertainty of not knowing even the month we will travel for sure!!!!
