from Ohio to China: we're coming home tomorrow (day 34)

we're coming home tomorrow (day 34)

The 10 day waiting period was not waived by the judge, but we are not too upset about it. We will miss Wesley (obviously), but we look forward to getting home for a while. I am also looking forward to a house with air conditioning, as it is currently 97 degrees and rising! As a girl accustomed to a/c, this is rough!!

More pictures, as promised

this was a great smile this morning (makes us sad to leave him for a while!)

watching other children play

LOVES to spin without stopping (not easy on Mom or Dad)

the phone was unharmed (thank you for letting us borrow it, Amy L.)

watching us

lest you think I was kidding about the crying...

Love - Staci and Damon

Kathy and Matt said...: He is a super cute little guy.

I know the 10 days feels like a long time, but coming home and having time to prepare a bit more for his arrival will keep you busy. It goes faster than you think.

Congrats!; August 15, 2008 at 10:51 AM

That was REALLY funny about the phone! I was guessing it was that Amy L., which just makes it funnier when it is someone you "know". Love it!; August 15, 2008 at 3:10 PM
ArtworkByRuth said...: Wow, we can tell he is all BOY! So glad the phone is in one piece, for now, LOL! Coming home and getting rested sounds smart. May God bless the rest of your journey!; August 15, 2008 at 5:53 PM
