a gift for our boy

We had wanted to send something over to Wilson for him to have while he waits for us to come get him! So a couple days ago, we found out that there is another Bethany family in our area who are travelling over to get their kids, and said that we would be able to include something in their suitcase! So last night we went to the store, and got a couple things to send over to him. We got a little photo album, and put pictures of the three of us in it, and a couple of his grandparents as well. I also got some fleece material, and made a cute little tie blanket for him to snuggle with! I have also heard from a couple people too, that its a good idea to sleep with the blanket before you send it over, so it can have your smell when the baby gets it, so they can learn what you smell like...... :) So last night we slept with it in our bed, but I am not sure if one night really made much of a difference! ;) So I decided to spray it with my perfume, and Adam's cologne this morning before he took it over to the family bringing it for us. Hopefully Wilson can get something out of all that anyway.

Hi! I just wanted to say I am so excited for you and your entire family. I just jumped over to your blog from the message board. We have just begun our journey (formal application sent) to Bethany and can't believe we're actually starting the process!

Thanks for sharing and I can't wait to read more :)
