Gotcha Day!


Today is the day we have been waiting for, wondering about, dreaming of for the past 2 1/2 years. It is finally here. This is it. In less than 8 hours we will be parents and our lives will change forever. Are we ready? Of course we are! Are we sure? Of course not!!
One thing we both agree about this morning is - each of us had a lousy night's sleep on the world's HARDEST bed! (Yes, we have been to Mexico and the beds there are hard, but that does not even compare)! I think if you weighed 500 lbs you would not even make a dent in this "mattress"! Oh well' just another reminder that we are on the older side of parenthood! Nothing is going to stop us now. We are off to shower, eat and then gather for a group meeting at 10AM to go over some details. Eric is double-checking the camera batteries and making sure our paperwork is in order.
On a side note, we are unable to view this blog or any comments made, our email is inaccessible, and right now SKYPE is only in Chinese characters that I cannot decipher enough to manage my way through enough to make a call, so we are not able to contact you for now. We will be working on that, though and hope to be in touch before the day is through.
Godspeed!


Update:


She's ours. Shortly after 3:00 local time Meredith was placed in Margo's arms. We are thrilled. Can't say the same for Meredith (yet). She's a little unhappy. She basically cried the remainder of the day.
