Panick attack!

I was just packing Toben's clothes for the trip, and had a panick attack that all the clothes are too small! It is just so darn hard to know what to pack when you have no idea how big they are! And it isn't like you can run to Wal-Mart and pick up a few clothes! I guess if they are too small, then a local merchant will be having a good day when I get there! :)

He is a peanut, I am sure you will be good :) Plus JD never seems to notice when his clothes don't fit right!

Yep, I got there and had been told that Davis was 18-24 months and he was really wearing 12-18 months! None of the clothes I brought fit him! He ended up wearing like 2 outfits the whole time. . .Did you bring a couple of outfits of each size on either end? I'd do that just to be safe!

Look at that totally adorable boy that you will be holding in about a week. WOW! I have tons of clothes with me, so if your's are too small we can dig through all the cute stuff people have given me to find things that fit, then you can give the clothes you bought to the orphanage.

YEAH! I am so excited to meet you HollyAnn!

He is so precious HollyAnn. I have never heard of anyone taking clothes that were too small for their kids. They always seem to be too big. The kids are just so much smaller than we can imagine. Even Levi, who was big and healthy by Liberian standards was small by American standards. We were surprised how tiny he was, healthy, but tiny.

Not much longer now YAY!!

You guys have made me feel better. I have 24 months and 2T mainly. I have a few 3T items. He just doesn't look much bigger than Ava to me and she is in 24 months. Rachel, his bio brother's adoptive mom, saw him in Sept and said she thought about 24 months would be good. Kami, I may have to take you up on that! I have some donated clothes, but most are smaller. We will make it work! :) One week from today we will be on our way to Brussels! WOW!
