Isn't she lovely?
Isn't she precious?
Chinese Name: Shao Fu Dong (last name, First name, middle name)

Birthdate: November 10, 2006, she is 15 months old.
Province: Guang Dong
Measurements taken on 11/23/2007:
Weight: 19.8 lbs. (this likely includes several layers of clothes to keep warm)
Length: 27.56 in
Head: 17.23 in
Chest: 18.11 in
Other information:
She is starting to teeth, is a moderate sleeper, actively crawls, walks while holding onto something, can pick up small objects with her thumb and index finger, imitates words, responds to people when spoken to, likes toys and loves to play.
We are more than ecstatic to say the least!
We will get the formal adoption package in the mail on Wednesday. Needless to say, I am taking that day off from work (Have I ever mentioned that I have a pretty cool boss?).
We do not know when we will travel yet. There is more paperwork that needs to be completed. It will likely be about 6-weeks from now.
Stay tuned for future updates!

Congratulations! She's beautiful. We are also adopting from China. Would you mind if I sortof borrowed and paraphrased your "important posts"? Those are some of the same things that I've been struggling with how to share with friends and family and you say them so well! Please email me if it's okay.
