In order to share our happiness and celebration I am doing a give away. I've been making some baby things and selling them on etsy. One of my most popular items is an Africa Tagsie. I sell these and promise the total sale goes to orphan care in Ethiopia. I figure since we're taking 150 lbs and we've already sent 150 lbs to another family (Yes, you read that right. We have over 300 lbs. of donations!) that I could do a little give away in honor of our little guy's homecoming -- which will be Friday, June 5, 2009. (See? Really excited here!)
Please leave a comment if you're interested in winning a fancy Africa Tagsie!
And thanks for celebrating along with us!!!
(I'll post a picture of the selected Tagsie when my camera charges back up! Or perhaps it will remain a mystery...)

We would love a chance to get one of your tagsies. We've been following your blog for a few months now and are so excited for you. We are hoping to be on the wait list in the next 3 weeks... Congrats on traveling!!! Tara
if I win, can we get nursery pictures on the next post? :)
Have no idea what a tagsie is but it sounds like something cute and would love to be in your drawing. Your donations already--very impressive. 300 lbs?!? AWESOME! Can't wait to hear about your trip watch the FUN unfold as you return home and start your life as a family together.
so excited that you will be on your way very soon!
i definitely want in on the africa tagsie action. i have promised myself not to buy anything for our baby until we have a referral, but i have intended to get her some kind of tagsie at some point.
so i remember when i first started blogging, people would mention getting adorable gifts made by nell ann. that's how i found your blog. i was like "i have to know who nell ann is!!!"
now it's your turn, baby! so happy for you!
Nell Ann -
Nina still LOVES her tagsie!
I'm doing a giveaway on GotCrazyTwins.com starting Sunday. Since you're doing a giveaway of your own, would you like to donate one (or two - for twins!) for my giveaway?
It would be great publicity for the product, too. All I ask is that you mail it to the winner. I know any mom of twins would LOVE these!!! Exactly which tagsie you send could be at your discretion.
Let me know what you think! I can't WAIT to read about your journey to your little guy - it's finally here! So very exciting - congratulations!

We would love to be entered!
And what a great thing to celebrate!! SO excited for you!!
ummm miss nell ann... do you remember a certain green & brown tagsie that you were gonna whip up???? mmmhmmm. :)
Well you know I am in! I am so excited for you guys! Give lots of kisses to our sweet girl while you are there!!!!
Yay! June 5th! That's SOON Mama!!!
And, YES I'd love to be entered to win a Nell Ann original! :)
congratulations on traveling so soon nell ann!! that is super exciting!! can't wait to see you guys together...
what's your etsy store name? or, i guess the real question is - how can i find your stuff on etsy? sorry if you posted this already and i missed it. i'm a blog stalker, but not always a real observant one. ;)
k i'm SUPER lame and see that on your blog you show your store name. (i usually read your blog on google reader so i don't see that.) but i still couldn't find you on etsy. if you know what i might be doing wrong, just let me know :)
I don't know what an African tagsie is, but I want one! :) (I've been lurking, and was so excited to see you guys are leaving for Ethiopia next week!!!!)
you will LOVE the emirates flight and the overnight stay was a great thing-totally helpful in getting adjusted to time zone craziness. except be prepared, they feed you a LOT on the plane so don't eat before you get on!! unless you hate middle eastern type food, then maybe snack it up ;) i am not sure if i want to be in the drawing for the tagsie b/c zoe barfs on EVERYTHING so i would hate to runi it-haha! but if you feel compelled to give it to her anyway....
Sounds nice. If I win, maybe you could give it to my son at HH. I would love to know he is getting loved on while we are in court limbo...still searching for the momma.
Would love to be in your drawing! I am over the moon excited for you to go!!!
SOOO happy for you guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am sure you are over the moon!!! How exciting for you and praying for a smooth travel and fun time while you are there. The minute you meet your precious little one....I am sure you will melt. It is God's way of reminding us of what He does when we come to HIM! WOW so happy!!
Yay, I am really excited for you guys. And ummm, yes, I would totally love to have that tagsie!!! Too cute!
Want wonderful things you are doing!! Can't wait for your new family to arrive home! Julie & Adam
i don't know what a tagsie is (a luggage tag?) but since i am adopting from ethiopia as well it sounds like something i would like so i'll enter.
thanks!
and safe travels.
i did the dubai ethiopia trip last year and both places are amazing.
Please have the most wonderful time ever and kiss our girls B and M for us!!
