NEW JERSEY SHOWER

On December 29, I had my last of 3 amazing baby showers- this one in New Jersey with all of my NJ family and friends and Colleen. My mom did an amazing job of making the day perfect, from the invitations to the favors, the venue, the food, the decorations, the toast, the gifts and the wonderful and warm atmosphere. It was a perfect day. I can’t begin to thank my mom, and my sisters, who were a huge help, for making the day so special.

The NJ shower weekend was even more amazing because ‘my Lauras’ (Laura and Laura) surprised me and came up for the shower from Atlanta. I was blown away to see them- what a huge and wonderful surprise! I was enjoying a nice lunch on Friday with my mom and Susan when Laura and Laura walked it. I was shocked! They took me to NYC overnight and we had a great dinner and evening. These are the same wonderful friends who hosted my shower in Atlanta- so very generous. Thank you Lauras for coming!

My 3 showers, this weekend in NJ and all of the love and support we have received from family and friends, is absolutely overwhelming. Christian and I want to thank everyone that has stuck with us throughout this long journey. It’s been 2.5 years, and it seemed like this time would never come- but it’s finally here. We have an amazing and beautiful daughter who is waiting for us in China. We will hold her in our arms in just 13 short days and bring her home as a forever family. Thank you for taking this journey with us!
