Three weeks...

Three weeks from today Eli will be in our hotel room!!! And two weeks from today I will be leaving Charlotte on our 1.5 week trek around the world! We will be vacationing in Dubai for 2 days on our trip over (since our flight goes through there anyway, why not enjoy the ..."culture?" Or at least the beaches).

We think we will book our flights tomorrow. We already have the itineraries set and on-hold. Guess tomorrow we pull the plug and part with a few thousand, GULP! I assure you, the big checks don't get ANY easier. Quite the opposite, actually! But it is all worth it. I know that now and I only have pictures of my sweet boy!

We hope to post from Addis, but probably won't be posting any pictures until our return. We'll see what the technology, our exhaustion and our lil' man will allow! Make sure you blog stalk so you can enjoy the end of one journey and the beginning of a new one!!!

We are currently planned to arrive back in Charlotte Saturday afternoon. Don't expect to see too much activity on here for a while! Just a little warning. We will need to get us all adjusted to the time, the new and improved family, recover from possible illnesses, have a few visits from family, etc. But know that we will be thinking of you all and praying for you all! MUCH LOVE TO MY PEEPS! Haha!
