Today we got our final update on Nile before we see him. I needed to know what he weighed so I would know what to pack for him. He is currently about 12 weeks old and weighs 8lbs. He is basically the size of a newborn. So I will be packing tiny diapers and clothes for my little man!! They told me that he has had a viral issue going on but was better now. Praise Jesus! It was all of those prayers I have been praying for him to stay healthy. He is eating 4-5 oz 7 times a day. I guess that is normal? I forgot all of this baby info plus this will be my first formula baby so I'm learning! They said he is a happy baby and fussy when he wants to be held. I think I can take care of that. :)
This mommy is ready!!!!!!!!!!!! I think I may actually sleep better once he is here, safe in my arms.
This is a glimpse into our journey to our sweet Ethiopian son. Through this journey we found a new heart. God lead us closer to himself and we are forever grateful for this opportunity.

Amen to the sleep! I am hoping that all these nights up getting ready is just practice for the real thing. I'm in the same boat as you with the formula and relearning. Oh...we are getting closer!
