Anyways....While we were in the birth city, besides having lunch with the birth mom, we were able to drive around to tour the hospital and have a look at hotels. Some inexpensive ones (by the week) were very quickly eliminated from our list as the stench of cigarettes seeped through the walls. We did eventually find one I thought I could live in for a couple of weeks.
Two weeks. That sounds like such a long time to me. We are really hoping that our sons can experience this with us and come along too but I'm not certain it will work out as that will require buying three extra tickets (2 for them and one for Aaron going to get them after legalities are done) and having to rent a mini van lol. If it doesn't work out, Aaron would fly home after all the necessary legalities were complete and take care of the kids. I wouldn't look forward to staying in a big city by myself with a newborn. And I wouldn't look forward to missing my boys so much.
So, we are just praying over some of these anxieties and unknowns and praying God's peace, wisdom, and provision. Many decisions to make, both small and large, and we'd appreciate any prayer!
