I am turning 30 next month. I started gathering everything in April.
Here are a few ideas to get your started...
1. Get your passports - remember to get lots of extra passport photos
2. Write your autobios
3. Schedule your doctor appointments
4. Write your adoption petition
5. Fill out the application for the birth and marriage certificates. This way you can just pop them in the mail when it is time.
6. create your photo packet
7. go to your local library and check out all the china adoption books (my library had about 10, not including kids books). I also watched all the China videos they had.
8. If you are a first time parent, read parenting books.
