A very quick post as we begin our journey to meet Jenna and Sam...
First and most important, an update on the kids. Both are doing well and are in the NICU for observation. We have spoken to the agency, the Ob/Gyn, and the new pediatrician, who all say that J&S are great considering they are 5 weeks early. They will take great care of them I'm sure and we'll know much more once we get there but the care providers seem happy.
What a crazy last 20 hours we've had. Reality sunk in a bit more with each hour as we called family and friends to tell them the good news, re-booked flights and hotels, and began the insane packing process. By noon this morning we were headed out the door with 3 huge suitcases, two smaller ones, two car seats, two snap and go strollers, and a twin pack and play.
Saying goodbye to Eddie wasn't fun but we know he'll be in good hands with Niki who is staying with him.
We are in flight right now from Atlanta to Detroit (1hr 30 mins), then we have a 1 hr layover, then Detroit to Amsterdam (7hrs), a 2 hr layover, and then Amsterdam to Mumbai (9hrs). So this time tomorrow we'll be in the same city as our little ones.
We'll do our best to send an update on Wednesday with photos and plenty of details so stay tuned. Thanks for all the well wishes, you've made our wait to see them much more tolerable and we promise to reward you with plenty of updates from India!
