Stuff we love

Hey all! Sorry for the lack of posts! 
As a change of pace, I thought I would show you some things for the new kiddo that we love. 
We have been really trying to hold off on buying much stuff until we are matched, but it is getting harder and harder the closer we get! 


We have received a lot of great gifts so far for our kiddo and wanted to give a big thank you!
 We REALLY appreciate the love! 


This carrier is very comfortable and will get a lot of use as we have been told that carrying our kiddo helps with attachment. Here's hoping our kid will be as light and easy going as the panda!

This little puppy is the perfect size to bring to China (packing for this trip will be a whole post itself, I can't even imagine how hard that will be!). Plus with every purchase a donation is made to a rescue shelter. We have always been big advocates of pet adoption and hope to pass this passion on to our child.

Along the same lines, anyone in my family can tell you that I had a teddy bear obsession collection when I was young and I have several sizes of this Gund bear that I still can't seem to get rid of (even though they are missing eyes and are obviously falling apart well loved). 
So our baby definitely needs a Gund of his/her own (mostly because I don't share well)!

Brian bought me this necklace for Mother's Day and I can't even explain how much I love it.
 I love the cut out of China, I love the saying underneath (I searched the world for you) and I love how the saying is a little hidden because our journey to our child is so personal and special.

I love this quilt (obviously with China instead of Africa)! It will make a great first comforter for them, as well as a beautiful keepsake for the future. 


Check back soon for more updates! Our documents are in their final stages of being sent around to various consulates around the US and will hopefully be on their way to China in the next few weeks! Once our documents are "logged in" we will officially be eligible to be matched with a child. Can't wait!
