Getting Ready to Leave and Packing Lightly

We finally received our visas and passports back - Whew! but we have a excellent travel agency! Now for the packing--- We are told to pack light, if anyone knows David (and myself) that is very hard to do. We are focusing on that tonight.
We are about 96 hours away from meeting our child. We already picked up a small Teddy Bear for him or her.
Whether, you help us gather gifts for the caregivers (A Russian Tradition) , helped us get the little things we need for our trip or just the the many beautiful emails we have received from our friends. family and coworkers - we want to thank you for your love, support and well wishes. it means so much to us.

Shari/David, I hope you both had a safe, exciting trip. I know it's been a long journey, but it'll all have been worth it in the end. I cannot wait until you hold your little baby and feel that joy and excitement. I have to start shopping, so hurry up with the info - sex & age :) Love you! Allison
