It's All Sinking In

Now that we have seen Naomi's pretty little face, we are having discussion about a future trip to Ethiopia. Granted, we have a few months before that will happen, but there are things to do.

1. We need to finish our travel shots. Therefore, sometime next week Dave and I need to get into the travel clinic and get our next round of Hep A/B so we can finish that before we leave. We're still on the fence about some of the others, but will make that decision before it's time to make actual travel arrangements.
2. We also need to figure out the financial aspects of travel. Ryan's needs over the last several months put a huge strain on the wallet, thus the need for us to do some fundraising. If there is anyone out there in blog land who would be willing to help us out, please visit our Just Love Coffee storefront (they have recently added some new coffees and Christmas coffee packs) or please buy a raffle ticket or 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 or more for the chance to win an Xbox 360 Elite. Email me for more information - debweeks@mchsi.com.
3. I've not even started on Naomi's nursery. Honestly, I really don't think I'm going to start on it until after the holidays. It will eventually get done though and when it is done I'll post pictures here.
4. Other than getting all the money in place for travel, the other big thing now is preparing Lili for the arrival of her little sister. I asked her last night if she is going to be a big sister and she told me yes. I then asked what her baby sister's name is and she told me "Maomi." (That's not a typo) For those of you who haven't met Lili, there is a good chance that she's not going to handle sharing the attention well :- Especially sharing mommy's attention. We have some work to do which needs to include spending a lot more time around babies and other children with mommy paying attention to those babies and children. Wish us luck!!!!
