WE ARE COMING HOME!!!!
Monday we had our Exit Interview at 2:00 and we received Ro's Visa by 5:00!!!!! We are finished now and we are coming home!!! The earliest they could get us on a flight was Wednesday morning.......That means with the time difference we should be arriving home Wednesday night around 11:00 pm
We can not believe we are actually going to be coming home. We are so excited. We were so happy when we finally had the last of all Ro's paperwork in our hot little hands....such a wonderful feeling.
Thank you to everone for all your love and support along the way. We really can not express how much it has meant to us. It also made us feel much closer to home when we got to log on in the evenings and read everyones posts.
WE ARE BRINGING OUR LITTLE MAN HOME!!!! :) :)

Hello from Hanoi
Below you will find some pics from our Saturday afternoon in Hanoi. We spent Saturday afternoon walking around Hoan Kiem Lake and just enjoying the scenery. Ro enjoyed a little ice cream as we walked....
It is alot colder in Hanoi due to the fact that we are much farther North now. We were not prepared for it to be as chilly as it really is....But it was a welcome change from the heat and humidity that we experienced in the other provinces.
We found out yesterday that we for sure have our exit interview to complete Ro's Visa on Monday. We will either have the visa in hand Monday late afternoon or Tuesday morning. Once we have the Visa we will then call and change our flights to start our journey home to see/ meet everyone.
Enjoy the pics and we will try to get more posted from our trip to the zoo on Friday in Ho Chi Minh before we departed for Hanoi.
Hope everyone is doing well!!! We will post more later!!

Last leg of our Journey
Yesterday at Ro's medical exam (medical visa for approval to travel) they indicated that he needed to have some blood drawn....This was HORRIBLE!! The little guy looked at me like "You are not going to let them do this to me....Are you??!!"
Then when they started to draw the blood he yanked his little arm away....causing lots of bleeding. He was crying and screaming and my new mommy heart was breaking.:(
He made it through this and came out like a champ. He is something else. I think everyday we get to know more about him and his personality the more we are amazed.
It is like monkey see, monkey do with Chris and Ro. It is so funny to watch.
Chris puts on his hat....Ro puts on his hat...
Chris takes off his hat to fan himself when he is hot and Ro has to also take his hat off.
When we are in a restaurant or area where it is appropriate to take your hat off...Ro will take his hat off and point to Chris' to remind him he must do the same.
He is such a little gentleman. The other morning he was washing a dish in the sink after he used it. This is what I mean by amazing us.......The little things that we can't believe he knows to do already.
Yesterday we completed and Received Ro's passport and tomorrow we head for Hanoi to complete the last leg of this journey. We are hoping by Monday everything will be complete for us to start working on our flight arrangements and start heading home. We are looking so forward to getting back and work on getting Ro all settled in to life at home. We have already bonded so much that it is hard for us to even imagine life without him already.
