Woo Hoo!!





Hey y'all! We had a huge yard sale yesterday for our adoption and we made $721!! I couldn't believe it.

We've been talking to Mira more and more about Evan. She recognizes him in pictures but of course, I still don't think she really realizes he's gonna be around for good.
We still have no 171-h, Tuesday will make 3 weeks since we were fingerprinted. Let's keep praying it comes quickly. We have new pics of Evan and also some of Mira(in stripes) Hope you enjoy!!!

Good News!



Hey!! We found out that Evan's palate has already been repaired! It is such a relief to know that we will not have to worry about putting him through another surgery so soon. Now we can dedicate our time to getting to know him. He is living with a foster family in Luoyang. He has a foster sister just a little older than Mira, so he's used to having a pesky little sister around! Just wanted to share the news.

PA arrived!!





Well today we received our Pre-Approval for Evan. That means that China approved us to adopt him. We can now post his pics as our son!!! We are now able to send him a package with a photo album of our family so he can become familiar with our faces.

Now all we are waiting on is our 171-h from the CIS. That is the one thing that we need. We were just fingerprinted last Tuesday. Send up extra prayers that it will come soon and we will be able to get to Evan as soon as possible!!!
