Pictures are worth thousands of words...

Today was a banner day! We have waited 33 months for this special occasion. I am not typing much (too tired!) so we will let the pictures speak for themselves. Megan was great with Madelyn and she is already the "big sister" we knew she would be! More tomorrow and enjoy the photos.











Momma's first hug












It's a family affair (a family of four...)












The orphanage director and one of the nannies















Waiting to finish at the Civil Affairs Office












Our first Bottle (aka Bah...)












Will she be a "daddy's girl?"















My first smile (Thanks to big sis)












I love my new sister!















Night night, sleep tight...

And now it's night night for me, too. We don't know how long this peaceful quiet will last...

Congratulations on your precious little girl!! She looks quite a bit like our Lucy. It is amazing, the similarities among the JC girls. Our JC family wishes your beautiful family all the best!

Matt, Lynn, Megan - How blessed you are to have a beautiful addition to your family. Megan will be the big sister now and will experience the joy of being a guide! I am so deeply happy for your family. Jim and I are trying to get pregnant and adoption might be an option - your story is an inspiration.
