Shoes for the Baby Home

Today we received the donation from the Robeez® Footwear "Heart and Sole" program that we will take when we are allowed to leave a donation at the baby home. (I think this will probably be when we pick up our little boy, but I will check to ensure we leave the donation at the allowed time!) I learned about this program last year and contacted them. They were so nice and easy to work with--all we had to do was provide information about the baby home, pay for the shipping of the shoes to our house (maybe around $20), and take them with us on our final trip. They donated 25 pairs, and the shoes are very lightweight! We are excited to make room for them in our luggage. Below is a picture of each pair:

I'm also including a few pictures of things that are in our little boy's play area in our bonus room. The table and chairs are from my Aunt and Uncle--they are very nice and came in huge boxes from PBK! There is a farm set from one of my minister's at my home church and his wife--they adopted their daughter from China in 2006 and they said it is her favorite toy! The talking dog is from my grandparents. The leap frog table is in the box is from the hostesses at our shower in Jackson! It looks like so much fun!

The green PBK Chair for our little guy was my Valentine's Day present from Michael. I would like to get his name on it (our little boy's name, not Michael's!), so I'll figure out how to remove the cover and take it to get it personalized.

This weekend Michael's sister Mary and some of our friends are hosting a baby shower for us after our church's morning service on Sunday. We are looking forward to it and so honored that she would do this for us!

P.S. Copies of the I-171H were apostilled and sent to our agency this week along with another form that we did proactively as it had been requested from several other families. We also received an update that our little boy is doing well!
