What a very exciting ...Oh it is almost time to go!! What a very exciting time for you guys. I can't wait to see Chloe in your arms!!!! <br /><br />Changsha was cold in Feb./March last year! We did not pack a coat for Jon Jon but we did take alot of Polar Tec pants and hoodie for him. He came in that adorable yellow snow jacket and pants and that was what we used when it was super cold. <br /><br />When we went shopping with Richard at the Wal Mart type store we saw lots of little jackets. I would not pack it.Everything we took was so big on him!! We had to roll up everything at the waist and the legs. The bottles and formula I would just take 2 and buy the rest there and the diapers just take enough to get you thru a couple of days. They have huggies there.<br /><br />Lots of love and prayers to you guys for a safe trip! When do you actually leave? Where are you staying? Please tell Richard hello for us. Tell him Jon Jon is a true spicy Hunan warrior!!<br />: ) Jodysweet momma luv uhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01436598699660242393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2519518994202519677.post-50398282255996903042011-01-07T07:04:59.426-08:002011-01-07T07:04:59.426-08:00Cora, It's FINALLY almost time~~~ Oh how I yea...Cora, It's FINALLY almost time~~~ Oh how I yearn to see that gorgeous girl in YOUR arms!!! God as surely blessed you and your life is about to become even more amazing than you'd ever believe!! My 2 cents, take the coat! It was FREEZING in Changsha, Hunan in November for us. We had to buy coats and they were not easy to find and not warm. The baby will come in something warm and likely brand new, (lexi had a puffer coat on, it was a size 2T and she was about the size of a 4 month old). Have a blast, enjoy every minute!

If you're tight on space, I personally liked the suggestion of packing layers and a jacket for Chloe.

I'd see if there is room OR bring a lighter zipper hoodie and layer it!Diana of Diana Rambleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09837630324310647062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2519518994202519677.post-88410742438158339112011-01-06T08:51:07.313-08:002011-01-06T08:51:07.313-08:00Yeah I agree... you will need one, and if you thin...Yeah I agree... you will need one, and if you think it's more or less the right size then better to have to go searching if you want to just chill with her.Kelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04471210246088431783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2519518994202519677.post-79139026462489027712011-01-06T08:01:13.254-08:002011-01-06T08:01:13.254-08:00So happy for you!

It won't take time away from her. Pack it flat on either the bottom or top of the suitcase.SpunkyBookwormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00002069786488109970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2519518994202519677.post-33740224428578659572011-01-06T07:41:27.837-08:002011-01-06T07:41:27.837-08:00I was still packing the night before we left for E...I was still packing the night before we left for Ethiopia. I say if there's room when you get done all packing then pack the coat, it will be one less thing you have to worry about while in China, but if there's not room, get it while in China. That is my 2 cents. :)Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16194103914809318855noreply@blogger.com
