Then .....





and now , four years later ......






Four Years ago this was our post of the day & the rest was history !


January 8th/2007

Hello Everyone from Changsha !

Ok ....scroll down to the bottom of the page and then come back up here to see what we have to say.


After 17 months of waiting ....


Alyana is here with us. We are doing wonderfully. The last few days have been a blur.

Yesterday, Jp and I boarded a bus that took us to the Adoption Affairs building where and we along with 11 other couples met our forever babies.

I cannot explain the emotion that filled the room. It was unbelievable.

The Youxian babies were last to come and of course, we received Aly last.

You cannot prepare for this moment , I swear!

Aly was dressed in several layers of clothing, hot , flushed and very frightened. She couldn't grasp what these funny looking adults with huge grins were doing looking at her and of course, she began to cry.

She settled down quite quickly and was gigling away in her crib in about an hour. Despite teething and a rash to go along with that wonderful process she is doing very well and appears healthy.

She is a bit small for her age however, after she gets home to some good home cooking she'll fatten up and begin running after her big brother in no time flat.


This crib waits for a little girl (Only minutes away from getting Miss Aly).


On our way to the Hotel to start our lives together.



First sleep with her new mom and dad looking over her.



This ferris wheel is right outside the hotel. We're on the 26th floor and we look up to see the top of the beast! It looks pretty cool in the daylight but at night it is fixed with tons of flashing neon lights (great for sleeping...).

We are heading into the eve of the 4th year anniversary of when we first met this little pumpkin. Tomorrow I'll dress her up in her Gotcha day clothes and see once again, how much she has grown over the year.
Where has the time gone ??
Happy anniversary sweet girl !
