Our visa interview is done and took about two seconds and once we pick it up tomorrow we are free to come home!!!!! We are hoping and praying that we can get our flights changed. They are being worked on now. Man, I hope we can leave tomorrow night. I am dreading the flight home so much, but I would rather get it over with than sit around and worry about it. I hope it is not too hard on Lucy, or us for that matter.
We went to the water puppet show tonight. I didn't get to see too much of it because Lucy could only handle about 10 minutes of it. Then she and I looked around outside while Justin watched the rest of the show. We bought a suitcase today to get the rest of our stuff home. We probably need two cabs just to get to the airport. We have gotten the most amazing stuff here that we will always treasure. I can't wait to get it all out when we get home and see what all we ended up with. We have bought so much that I don't even really remember what we have.
We are sitting in the restaurant right now and Lucy is making the entire restaurant laugh. Justin is throwing her around and she is full on belly laughing and everyone is laughing along with her. So cute. People just love her and she gets quite a large amount of attention everywhere we go.
I will let you know what we find out about our flights. USA HERE WE COME!!!!!!!!!

Hi Kelly,
Great news about the visa! Don't worry too much about the flight...babies don't get the same "cabin fever" that we do. My biggest advice for the flight is to dress her in footy pajamas. We did that for our Lucy when we went to Scotland. That way you do not need to worry about socks, shoes, sweaters, etc. She will be warm and cozy and it keeps things simple. Then, of course, you can change her into her special USA flag dress before you land. It will be a lot fresher that way than if she wears it for the whole flight.
Safe and happy travels!

Awesome news, I hope you get to come home tomorrow!! And is it possible for Lucy to get cuter!!!
That is awesome news! It seems like you guys had a pretty quick trip, which is great news for all of us following behind you as it looks like some of the kinks have been worked out of the system. I look forward to seeing the photos from your homecoming!
Kelly!!!! I so hope you guys can get your flights changed! We are so ready for you guys to get home! Keep us posted on when your flight is arriving! I will be sitting on your doorstep waiting to meet lucy! love, kathy
She is so adorable. I know you are ready to get home and get back to "normal" Of course that will be totally different than prior to Lucy but oh so much more wonderful. Don't stress about the flight..you may luck up like we did. Annslee slept 13 hours on the flight!!! Blessings on your journey home.
I am so excited that you all may come home Thursday!!!! Keeping my fingers crossed. Steve is even excited that Lucy may be able to "hill it" before he leaves out of town Sat. He thinks she looks like him :)! I am so excited to see you guys I can not stand it! Be safe and see you at the airport???? Sid and I are ready!!!!
Hooray!!! I hope your flight change works out ok!
Hooray for coming home!!
Yippee! This is fantastic news that you guys have gotten everything done and are so close to getting home. Be safe traveling! I am so excited to meet Miss Lucy this weekend! We are definitely going to have to head straight you your house when we get into town on Friday! love you guys, Stacey
How exciting that you are almost home. I have only posted once but have followed you for a long time. ( I was the one who suggested you go to baby gap awhile ago...) Seeing you get your referral, get ready for travel and meet Lucy gives me fuel to be patient as we wait for our referral from another country. Thanks for your blog and all the GREAT pictures. By the way, my husband remarked that from the first pictures of Lucy and the pictures you are posting now, he said that he can see a difference in how happy she seems and that she looks relaxed and happy. Congratulations to you three.

Have a safe trip home. I'm so happy for you and your family.
Yay!! You're on your way home!!!! That's great news!
Yay! Congratulations! I wish you a speedy and safe flight home!
FANTASTIC!!!! So excited for you guys to come home! I want lots of pictures of her arrival back in the US and her introduction to the rest of the family! We are SO happy for you guys. Our hearts are just filled. We can't wait to meet her in person! I have faith she'll do great on the flight - she's been a liitle champ thus far

I love you're stories of your shopping! When you said, "I can't wait to get it all out when we get home. I can't remember everything we bought." Reminds of the books, "Shopoholic gets Married" She goes on a lONG honeymoon and shops in every country they visit. 2-semi's pulled up at their flat to deliver everything she bought! She couldn't remember everything. It was a hoot! Hope you get those flights changed!!!
Whoo-hoo!!! The good ol' USA is ready to greet its newest citizen! I really hope you can get your flights changed. Sending lots of good vibes your way.
Yay!!!! It'll be so nice when you are able to finally come home with your girl
Let the wardrobe be freed! Can't wait for the pictures!
Whoo hooo!! Time to come home!!
You sound like me as far as the shopping. I always buy a TON of stuff. I just can't pass it up. I've been to VN 6 times now and have boxes and suitcases of my treasures in the basement (about half has been given out or used to decorate our home). It's so fun to go through those boxes and find more treasures to pull out over the years. And that smell of VN is STILL in there! I love opening the box for the first time in a while. I'm instantly transported back to VN! Each time we go to VN I think I've already bought everything there is to buy....and I find a zillion more things I didn't get the other times. I'm sure you'll do the same the next time you go back :).
