Hi all!
Just trying to figure out how all this works! We are hoping that we can use this blog as a way of keeping everyone updated on our preparation and then travels to meet our new daughter Hannah XingJuan in January of this year!
I'm going to post some photos of important events so far... receiving Hannah's referral package from our adoption agency, Family Outreach International (FOI), Josh opening the Official Letter of Approval from China, us signing the official letter saying we accept the referral of Yang XingJuan! Josh wanted to know where HE was supposed to sign! Just the parents, sorry!
Next will be before and after photos of Hannah XingJuan's room, and I'm sure, a few Mandarin lessons along the way. ;-) so book-mark this site and check in from time to time!
Love us, Dava, Robin and Gege Josh! (Big Brother Josh!)
p.s. In China, they put the last name first, so Yang is the last name and XingJuan is the first and middle name. XingJuan's Canadian name will be Hannah, but she will ultimately decide what she wishes to be called. :-)
