Baby K'tan

I had a hard time deciding on what kind of carrier/sling to go with for our trip to Ethiopia to pick up our girl. I ended up going with the Baby K'tan (I think it was Liz who suggested it....thank you!). I definately may need to invest in a Ergo or Beco later, but I think the K'tan will be good for now (& I really wanted a wrap). I tried it with R &, as you can see from his face, he was not happy about being my guinea pig. He was a good sport though & I love it! No, carrying an older toddler for extended periods is not going to be easy, but I definately think this will make it a little easier! I can't wait to get my girl in it!
Everyone keeps asking about how the wait is going for us. We are definately excited & anxious, but we still have a wonderful peace. It is so good to know that she is being well-cared for at Hannah's Hope. They say she has REALLY attached to A, the orphanage director (to the point that she gets really sad when A has to leave the compound). It is so good to know that she is getting lots of love & hugs, but I am a little jealous b/c my heart wants her to be attaching to me! Please continue to pray that we make it through courts. I know anything is possible with God (& A, the orphanage director) in control!
You may have noticed my new hair do. I got my hair whacked last night. I've been thinking I would need something short & easy soon, but I had originally thought I would wait until after our trip. However, after our referral came & I knew she was older, I decided that may be an unnecessary change for our little girl after she arrives.
