AIT appointment in 3 hours!!

Hi Everyone! This mommy is up and at em' getting all ducks in a row before we head out to the AIT appointment that's at 8am here!! Look at one of the things these 2 are famous for this trip: lol! We can't wait for our appointment and we are a bundle of nerves at the same time. This is the last detail before we are ok to officially head back to the U.S on Thursday!! We are ready to have all the "red tape" behind us so we can breathe our last sigh or relief. The one before this was when we made it TO Harrison finally! Now, we can't imagine our lives without him. Last night I looked at Brandon and said,"Does your heart just do everything but burst when you look at him?" Brandon agreed!! Harrison has our hearts. We never knew how powerful "it" could be. We are thankful that the Lord has chosen to bless us in this way! Everyone keeps saying how blessed Harrison is, but I must say we truly are the ones getting the blessing out of this!! At this point, Harrison is probably still thinking "When are you gonna take me back to that baby home guys?"

Look who just woke up??
Alrighty!! We'll update more tonight! We hope to make it to the AIT appointment and then to the Tapei 101!!

Sending AIT prayers your way!!!!!! Enjoy 101--it is really beautiful up there! There is a place on top you can take a picture against a blank wall and they computer generate you hanging off the building! Janie and I did that--it turned out to be a great picture. It looks like I'm flying around the top of 101 building with a baby in my arms...too funny!

If you get a chance, do that...it is so worth the cost--you get 2 5x7 pictures.

Take care,
Tonya & Janie

I'm right there with you, April. We truly are blessed to parent these beautiful boys from Taiwan! I'm loving living your journey via blog. We had a wonderful experience in Taiwan and I'm glad to see the same is true for you. Hope things continue to go well!
