Here is what we sent.
Included in this package:
A monster stuff animal and rattle.
Just a taste of the monsters to come!
A taggie blanket.
Bates' D'D made him this taggie blanket. She actually made two of them. We were told not to expect to get anything we send to Korea back. Most of the time the foster family keeps the clothing and things for future foster children. So D'D made two blankets, one we are sending to Korea and one to keep here so he will have one when he gets home. We slept with this blanket in our bed for a few nights, so hopefully it will smell like home!
An outfit.
A cute stripe outfit. He will look so cute in it. Hope it fits!
Aveeno baby wash and lotion.
We plan to use Aveeno wash and lotion, so we are sending some to Korea. Hopefully when he gets home, he will feel comfortable being surrounded by smells he recognizes.
Two photo books.
I made a flip book on snapfish and also got a kids soft book and filled it with our pictures. Hopefully his foster mom will show him our pictures and point out his Umma and Appa!
And two disposable camera.
Hopefully his foster mom and dad will take lots of pictures of our boy for us!
And look, I fit it all in this box! Yes, even the stuffed animal monster fit. It was tight, but I did it!
Little note, after I got it all packed up in this FedEx box and took myself to FedEx and filled out like a million forms, they were going to charge me $115 to send the box to Korea! Um, no thanks!
I took myself to the good ole post office and off the package went for only $40!
Oh! He is going to love all of his goodies! Such a good idea to sleep with the little blanket to get your 'smell' on it. I love reading your posts and getting to find out the updates. They are exciting!
