Today is a BIG day!

Hi Everyone! Just wanted to send a quick update! It's just after 7:00am here and I slept okay. We both fell asleep at 7:30pm and I woke up off and on throughout the night. Every time I would wake up I would think about Ryan and how excited I am that in just HOURS we will be meeting him. Then at around 2am I woke up STARVING so I grabbed a snack. Still not use to this time change.

I still can't believe this! I had dreams about Ryan ALL night last night and would wake up with my heart and mind racing not being able to fall back to sleep. I just can't wait. This is so surreal.

I am going to get Joey up know so we can grab a coffee at the Starbucks down the street. Then I am going to have a bowl of oatmeal that I brought and relax before meeting our social worker. Then it's off to meet our little guy! Yay!!!

Thanks for all the comments everyone! It makes being so far away from home seem not so far :)
Love ya guys!!!!

    I liked Jenny's previous post about constantly checking your blog - I feel the same way, almost like a stalker! I'm just so excited for you becoming a family of 3 and for this amazing adventure you are living right now. We can't wait for you to return and get on with the best part - living the rest of your lives together making life-long memories as Mommy, Daddy, and Son (Cooper too!).

    Great Uncle John says hello to Ryan. I was thinking of some very interesting coincidences. My Uncle, your Grandpa Fox's only brother, John E. Fox, who I was named after, was killed in action during the Korean War. I never met him...and now you will be meeting your new son, in Korea! I'm so happy for you Kari and Joey...
    Uncle John

Have a wonderful day and take in every minute of it. Can't wait to wake up tomorrow morning and see pictures. Time for bed here in the States :) Love, Jenny
