Actually, when we land in Ethiopia, he is officially OUR BABY and we can take him back to our hotel right then!!!! We bought our plane tickets and are traveling August 7th.

Your new Reece is so cute, and yes, I do see the resemblance. I am so happy for you both - he is one lucky little boy. Good luck and God bless.

We just started our adoption process a few weeks ago. I'm waiting to start my blog once we get a little further into it.

A question about traveling to Ethiopia: Has anyone been able to use airline miles credits to help defray the cost? We'll be flying from Dallas.
