Well after many delays and alot of frustration and prayer, we are finally going to China to bring Sebastian home. We received our TA (travel approval) from China on Monday, which means we are free to plan our travel....well almost. Now we wait a few more days for our Consulate Appointment. It is at this ceremony that we have the swearing in for Sebastian to become a US citizen and we receive his exit visa. Yes even at the end there is still more paperwork. But once he clears customes in Chicago he will officially be a citizen of the United States!

Now I have to jump into hyper speed and finish up all the last minute travel preparation. Tickets, Nanny gifts, itinerary while in china, lots of perfect American dollars (the chinese don't like wrinkled, bent bills), and packing for a family of 5 traveling to china including one teenager, one toddler, one 5 year old we don't even know his actual size. But ready or not, we are heading to Kunming to bring our son home!

I will post our final travel dates by the first of next week. Plesse keep checking in to follow our amazing journey to china to meet the newest member of our family, Sebastian An Ming Haske.
