Unfortunately all my funny, witty posts are stuck in my head and can't make in through my fingers and onto my blog. Your loss, I know it's killing you. But... just for kicks,
This weekend I discovered that I could pack all of my clothes and all of A's clothes and blankets/bibs, etc into a space bag that slipped neatly into my backpack! Yep, that leaves about 1/4 of a suitcase for diapers/formula, bottles and toys and the rest is FREE LUGGAGE SPACE for donations. I also packed up and weighed the donation pile that has been accumulating in my garage, 7o pounds! AND we're also having a little par-tay this weekend. I can't wait.
And no, I don't have a travel date. I do things like pack just for fun, it's sick I know.

Wow - you'll be able to bring lots of donations - that's awesome!! I can't wait to get to the packing phase. :)
NEXT WEEK is the big day!!
ahhh, space bag ... great idea.
That's awesome you got that much space! You're going to make some kiddos very, very happy.
I'm starting to worry about weight... my gift is hefty!
uhhh you're not sick at all, just excited! I think I was packed for 2 months before we went!!
i have a growing pile in the corner of things to take so don't feel bad-i don't even have a stinkin court date yet!! (although i sure would like one NOW PLEASE!!) just to be all momish about things, you do have a way to get the air out of the space saver bag when you are there right? b/c you wouldn't have a vacuum with you in ETH is all-I know they make them where you don't need the vac, just wanted to be sure is all. of course sounds like you will have lots of spare room on the way back anyway since so much will be filled with donations on the way over-hey, why don't you fill that extra space with MY BABY when you come back!!!
Jody,
I won't be needing to space bag it all on the way back, there will be plenty of room then. Plus I have no interest in carrying our entire wardrobes of DIRTY clothes in my carry-on on the way back. I'd much rather have an extra hand for, you know, A BABY! :)
So happy for you. I love your excitement! We are getting close to court you and I !!! Yikes...better start packing too :)
I'd have you bring my donations but wait...I'll be traveling WITH you!!!! Now if that isn't faith, I don't know what is! Praying boldly for a passing court date next week.
Sunday
Erin-We are in Port Angeles! Our family lives in Oak Harbor so we frequent your side of the water often. We will meet up soon I'm sure! We have not received our Feb numbers just yet! We'll be praying for your court date. -Cassie
I am praying all tonite for your court date-God is GOOD!!!
Hi Erin,
Just wanted to know I'm thinking about you. You and are alike in many ways...I'd have packed, repacked, and enjoyed it all. I can't wait to see how crazy the next few weeks turn out. It must be so hard waiting for beautiful Baby A but how exciting that you are finally packing. What a huge step.
Hugs to you and C.
Kristy
