TA and CA confirmed

Finally, we are done with waiting for all these "A"'s to come. We got our confirmation on the travel dates of November 19th - Dec 4th, and our consulate appointment is on Dec 1st. We got our plane tickets purchased yesterday, so we will leave Memphis in less than 2 weeks to head to Chicago to sit for 5 hours, THEN we head to Beijing, thats ~14 hours in the same plane, booooo. We should land in Beijing around 4:30pm local time. Hopefully we can stay awake and successfully go to sleep in the evening to get over the jet lag. The following 2 days will be spent doing a Beijing tour, then we fly to Zhengzhou. We have no idea what we will be doing there, or how long we will be there, or when we get the baby. The agency will be giving us a more detailed 'inter-China' itinerary in a few days. We have to be in Guangzhou on Dec. 1st to do the swearing in ceremony, and then we can leave on Dec. 4th to head home. So now we need to pack!
