Welcome to our Adoption Journey
We started down the road to adoption in the Fall of 2005. Our expected 9-12 month journey has now stretched to over 4 full years and we are expecting to be matched with a child or children in the next few months!
This ever expanding wait has tested our commitment, challenged our patience, and provided us with many opportunities for exotic Last Hurrahs!
We have created this blog so that family and friends can join us "virtually" before, during, and after our travels to China as we create our family.
Please register as a "Follower" if you would like to be updated on our latest blog entries.

Looks like she is a Daddy's girl already! I'm sure with the love you will both give her, she will change from the serious baby to the happy baby. She was just waiting for a special Mommy and Daddy. What a lucky little baby.
