  1. Wahoo Friends! Looks like things are shaping up more and more each day. The smiles are getting bigger on everyone's faces. We pray for safe travel to your new city. Coming home from school today, out of nowhere, Darby told me "IBee is coming soon!" It definitely brought tears to my eyes. We can't wait. Much love - Jenn, Rod and Darby.

  3. Ash- Tell your dad I want to see a video of him eating something weird!! He shouldn't let marcus have ALL the fun!! So amazing to see the pictures - and see Ivy gradually relaxing!
    HE has done great things!! :)

    Love and prayers-

  4. 5 days is nothing compared to the 42?? months of waiting for Ivy! You guys can hold your breath for 5 days! Regardless- will pray for smooth sailing through the final procedures- if nothing else- to 'make up' for the problems you had in Nigeria. We will be so excited when we get that phone call (yes, Marcus, call- or at least text) that Baby Ivy has set foot (well, stroller wheel) on US Soil.

    And we want pictures and blog of her first trip to Pappasitos.

  5. Glad things are moving along steadily! Can't wait to see you guys. We are still praying! See you soon. Will wants to know when can we SEE Ivy! I have been updating him when I talk to him and he keeps saying "I know Mom, but when we get home can we go SEE her?" Love to you all!
