We sent our Agency a fun little package for Fu last week. It should be on it's way to China this week. We sent an album for him to play with and chew on but it also had pictures of all of us in it. Yes in the days to come he will see pictures of his new family. We are so excited! No he won't be able to comprehend what is going to be happening in the months to come but he will be introduced to us through his little book. Our agency also explained that this is as much for the nannies as for him especially when he is so little. It tells them that he has a family and begins to get them in the mindset of preparing him for his family. I would have never thought of it that way. We also sent a CD of chinese lullabies. It is our hope that they will play it for him from time to time and we also have a copy of it. We hope that if he hears it in the orphanage and then hears it when he is with us those first days it will give him something familar to bring him comfort. Again we will have no idea if they will actually play it for him but we are hoping the CD gets put to use.
Shane helped me put the pictures in the book and get the package mailed to our agency. Shane did ask "how many more times will we have to mail something for my brother?" Good questions Shane!! It seems like we do frequent the Fed Ex office! Every time I think we are getting to the end of paperwork and shipping things off another packet comes in the mail. We shall see what comes next!

Funny! My kids are also getting tired of being drug to the local P.O. to mail adoption paperwork. They have no idea how much more there is to come! ;o)
Well from the Korea side of things we are finalized but still have more paperwork. Jack came home almost 11 months ago now and we are still doing paperwork and writting checks. Crazy! I really wonder when we will be TOTALLY done!
Shane is so handsome! Godspeed to your son!! Our LOA was dated 9/29...but got lost and we just received it. So I suppose we are a month behind you. :)
