One Week from Today.....

 . . . we will be on our way to Jordan, Lord willing!!! :)  As you can see, I've been practicing the new Ergo baby carrier.  I'm sure it will be quite the shock the first time our 19-pound son is sitting in it.... I can't wait!!!! :)  


I think I've made our final trips to Wal-Mart, Target, Babies R Us, Wal-Mart again.... today begins the packing.  We need to have our bags ready to go by Thursday morning when we head out for the wedding, so the sooner we get started, probably the better!  

Ran across the verse today that I plan to use over and over again on our journey to Jordan! :)

"The Lord is the one who goes ahead of you.  He will be with you.  He will not fail or forsake you.  Do not fear or be dismayed."  --Deut. 3:18  (Em, is this the same verse you used???)

I don't know that we'll be doing any blogging while we're in Addis, but I promise to update you all (with pictures!!!!)  just as soon as we can! 

Thank you for praying with us and celebrating sweet Jordan with us!  Love you all!
