We have been crazy busy at work and I am trying to prepare donations for our trip to Ethiopia. We haven’t received a travel date yet. I can’t wait to get our sweet pea!
Update on donations:
The orphanage stated that they needed Diaper rash ointment. I will be taking 100 bottles of Resinol Medicated Ointment . This ointment cream is AMAZING! If you haven't tried it, you must! It's hard to find so I would order it online.
INDICATIONS:
• Resinol Medicated Ointment Jar Helps prevent and temporarily protects chafed, chapped, or cracked skin.
• Temporarily relieves pain and itching associated with:
• Minor Burns.
• Sunburn
• Minor Cuts.
• Scrapes.
• Insect Bites
• Minor Skin Irritations.
It obviously does a lot but it also is AWESOME with diaper rash. It clears it up so fast! This will be perfect because they can use it as diaper rash and for other things too!
People in our community have been so great to help with donations.
We will be taking 480 waterproof diaper covers in all different sizes. It seems they have been using some form of plastic bags to cover their cloth diapers. I have seen pictures and it looked like it was painful and hot.
We already sent $1,000 cash donation to the orphanage. It was donated through the executives of Keller Williams Realty. What great guys!
We also got cute little bears (stuffed animals) for all the older kids. They were supposed to be Christmas presents but better late than never. I thought they could use something to cuddle with at night.
We are also taking a few baby carriers and some misc baby stuff like baby wash and powders.
I am not sure how we will get all this stuff on the plane without paying a fortune. As soon as we get our tickets booked, I will call the airline to see what restrictions they have.
That's all for now! I pray we get a travel date soon! Have a great week!
