Will we travel to get our baby/babies?
Yes, we will actually make two trips to Ethiopia. The first trip will be to go to court in Ethiopia to gain legal custody. The second trip will be to take our little ones to the US Embassy for visas and then bring them home! We don't really know how long it will be between the first and second trip. Ethiopia recently changed it's laws so that two trips are now required, and no one is sure yet how long the time between will be.
Boy or girl?
We have no preference on the gender, so we have no idea! Maybe one of each?!?
How old does "baby" mean?
On our application we said that we would be happy with the age range of infant to 3 years old. It is completely possible that our kids aren't even born yet!
Have we thought about names?
We are not sure on names. Right now we are thinking we would give them a first name and maybe keep their Ethiopian name for a middle name or even pick out a different Ethiopian name. Or maybe we will stick with giving them family names like Hans or Fritz :-)

Now here is some fun news...our good friend Pearl in Colorado made cookies in the shape of Ethiopia and will be visiting us today with her boys to personally deliver them! We may post pictures (if we don't eat them all first).
A second piece of fun news...our home visit is tomorrow! We'll let you know how it goes.
