We got the email from Katie today, telling us to apply for our visas with an entry date between October 15th and January 15th! We also received our travel packet - 27 pages of ooey gooey travel goodness :)
I can't believe how unprepared I feel! I got the suitcase out today and started making lists and crossing things off and making phone calls and generally freaking out. I even made Chris go to Walmart with me tonight to buy baby medicines and a bottle brush and extra batteries and frankly, I'm not sure what all else I threw in the cart.
Bring on the G&R date! Hold on Phoebe, Mama's coming!
