Travel Approval

Today we received our travel approval from China, which is basically an invitation from the Chinese government to fly to China and adopt a child. Our agency is working hard to schedule our appointments at the American Consulate. If all goes according to plan, we'll be leaving the US on June 27th. We'll be in China for two weeks and then returning to the states on July 12th as a family of four!! We've got a stack of things in our bedroom ready to be packed and we're wondering just exactly what the agency means when they say "pack light". How does one "pack light" when traveling with a 3 1/2-year-old and a 16-month-old in a foreign country? I'll do my best! I had fun shopping for clothes for the girls. I bought matching dresses for them to wear on the day that the adoption is finalized and a couple of outfits that are the same outfits, but different colors - what fun to have two little girls!! Boy, are they going to hate me!! :)
