The 11th Hour!!!!

Mason pictures from Saturday.



On Saturday, we got even more pictures to look at! In them, only two days until Mason he meets mama and baba. These pictures are so cute. I wonder if they have any idea what's going on, or if it's just fun posing for pictures.

2 more days

This morning I walked around trying to find a place to eat nearby. We really hated the restaurant in the hotel we went to last night. All the meat was fatty, and the buffet stuff was cold. I really like the name though: "Brazillian Beer & Roast". Mike scored some points in figuring out what the translation was suppose to come from: "Brazilian Bar & Grill". Makese sense! Oh so close.

I found a decent looking restaurant called Papa's. We'll see. I also scoped out a place we can buy bottled water, without having to take a death-ride to Walmart. It started snowing when I was walking back, and right now it's a hazy hazy white blizzard outside. It still hasn't started sticking yet, though.

It is 11:33 a.m. Monday morning right now. We are going to meet in the lobby at 1 p.m., take a short taxi ride to our location, and meet Mason at 1:30 p.m.
This will probably be the last time I post for a while, and certainly as a 2 person family.

Thanks to everyone who has been following us to our goal for all these years. See you on the other side!

by now you will have met Mason and I'm so excited. Give him a hug from "Aunt" Sue and "Uncle" Robert.

It's now 11:45 p.m. in China, and I'm hoping that you're all getting some sleep. SO EAGER to hear how it went meeting Mason (there are those shivers again) and how he's doing. You're parents!! Can you believe it? Give Mason a kiss from us (if he's into kisses right now).

I couldn't stop thinking about you guys and crying with joy last night. Now I am imagining the three of you in the hotel room, and all the love you have been saving up for so long, now able to be shown to this beautiful little boy. What a miracle!
