Can't sleep too excited to go. . .

Ok here is the Christmas dress. Remember I HAD to go for warm. Any dress that is not long sleeved and warm material our foster mother does not dress her in. The culture bundles babies up and always has all their skin covered. I knew this was the perfect dress when I saw it was red velvet, simple, and WARM!

Close up of the tights. Is that not the cutest idea ever!

OK. . . I had to have one more pic of the whole outfit. Lucia's first Christmas. . . .

Did you know that lots of the tights have cute little patterns on the buns. I got these darling pink striped, snowflake tights and then when I opened them up and another surprise . . . A SNOWFLAKE ON THE BUNS. . . just when I thought they couldn't get any cuter.

Leggings for the trip. I knew you were curious:) 2nd best to tights. I will get every pair on in three days!

All the tights for the trip. My mom had to get all three pair of the cute shoes tights it wasn't me.

Daddy smiling with the the darling sweater dresses. He thought I was crazy for taking pictures of the outfits. . . . I was having a blast.

We leave in two days. . . . and I am so excited to get our family together for the first time. I can't wait to see how Lucia has changed and to see the boys interact with her. I am thrilled to have everyone together. We have been packing maniacs around here. We leave at 6:00pm Monday night, fly to LAX than get on a plane at midnight and fly through the night to Guatemala. Pray we ALL sleep on that flight. We will get to the hotel by 8:30 the next morning. First eat breakfast then wait for the phone call in the room to go pick her up when our foster mother arrives. Our agency always has an interpreter there that oversees all of the foster mothers. She helps to communicate Lucia's schedule and what and when she is eating. She will also take pictures so we can focus on Lucia. Waiting in the room for the phone call I go crazy. Please pray that none of us get sick in Guatemala. We will be there until Friday then are heading back to LA. Since we had to fly in and out of LA we decided what a perfect opportunity to hit Disneyland and the Beach Saturday and Sunday. We surprised the boys on their birthday with the news. We will post pictures the entire time we are there. It is so much fun to hear from you when we are in Guatemala.
