I have already started to pick up things from the store and put them in a pile. I am trying to pace myself. I don't want to freak my husband out too much. He believes that I am starting too early (men!). I told him that all of you have told me to get a move on and he said (jokingly) that those of us (women) that adopt are all of the same crowd. I took that as a compliment!! Hopefully we will be leaving 5 weeks from today! If not, it will be 12 weeks from today.....come on TA!!!!

Disposable bibs are a really good idea to bring and a stool softener - for both your sweetie and for you. The change in diet can be dramatic and it is no fun to be constipated! Oh - I see it is on your list! Have fuN! And NO, it is NOT too early to pack!
Baahahahhaaa about your husband. Mine never packed a THING until the night before we left. I started packing weeks before. There is SO much to take and remember. I had a corner of our room that was the 'staging area' and my husband just put up with it. :) Praying for a 5 week departure date!! :)
