Flying to Nanchang in a few hours

3:20 a.m. Tues morning here in Beijing and I'm wide awake. We're so excited!! Steve is still sleeping so I'm trying to be quiet....maybe at least one of us will get a good night's rest. We're leaving the hotel to head to the airport at 10:00...our flight to Olivia's Province is at 11:40 (we're about 10 minutes from the airport...and they're taking care of all luggage...we don't have to check in at the airport). It's about a 2 hour flight....will arrive in Nanchang around 1:30. We'll then go directly to the Civil Affairs office....where we'll get the babies!!!! Our appt there is at 3:00....so we'll have her when everyone at home wakes up in the morning!! We loaded one of the backpacks last night to use as her diaper bag. Our guide said they'll give us a supply of her formula so we don't need to pack any food for her. After we get her, we'll have about an hour bus ride to our hotel. There are 12 families in our group....but there are 4 groups just from our agency going to this specific Province today...in all, 40 families will get their baby today (again, this is just from our agency!...our month was a BIG batch of referrals!). Our group is first...thank goodness! In our group, we're family number 4...so we're 4th out of the 12 to get our baby. This is a surreal experience!! This country is great...the people are incredibly gracious...they are so sweet and happy to meet us...and very excited when they hear that we're in China to adopt a baby! We can't believe TODAY is THE DAY!!!! Hopefully we'll be able to post pics tonight so check out the blog tomorrow morning. We've had no problem posting while in Beijing...hopefully we'll have no prob in Nanchang. Say a prayer for healthy and happy babies! :-)
