Article 5!

Now, we are officially waiting for our travel approval !
We will be traveling sometime in July. Our travel approval could come somewhere between 1- 3 weeks from now! We are really hoping to be celebrating Pei's 2nd birthday with her on July 20th but we will have to wait and see.

So, as we enter our final stage of the process we are trying to enjoy our summer and not obsess too much over all the details!
But I think I am failing miserably!

Yeah ,who am I kidding. I am one obsessing , nesting , packing , shopping , attachment reading , Nanning news reading, blog stalking , excited , scared , happy ,weepy , ladybug lovin momma!
Praying for a fast TA , so I can keep whatever sanity I have left !!!!!

Calling all July forever families!

Well ,we are one week into our waiting for Article 5. So , in approximately 3 weeks or so we should receive our Travel approval. We first laid eyes on Pei a little over seven months ago. I have to say seeing that little face day after day has been a double edge sword. It has made this journey seem slow and cruel at times. But just when you think you have had enough that same little face "refuels" you to keep on going!
We are really hoping to be there before Pei's birthday on July 20th but we will have to see . So, we sent a cake through Lady bugs n Love for her to celebrate her birthday/adoption early with her friends and foster family there.
Just two years ago in July we traveled to meet our sweet little Russian princess! It seems like it was just yesterday. I love that the girls will share the month of July for their birthdays and also meeting their forever families!
If you are traveling in July leave me a comment and tell me when you think you will be in China. I am really excited to know who will be there around the same time. And be sure to sign in on the google followers on the bottom right hand corner of my blog . I would love to know who is following along!
Well ,that is all for now ! Back to summer ,shopping , packing and dreaming of our sweet ladybug!
(Here are some pics of my recent retail therapy session and my really cute Russian swimsuit model!)

Moving right along!

We were cabled on the June 1st and now we will begin our wait for our Article 5!
We are almost there baby girl!
