Good news!!

     I'm sorry we are a bit behind on posting, but we did get the good news a lot earlier than we expected. We got PA, which is pre approval from China to adopt our son!! We are all so excited and thrilled with how quickly everything is moving at this point. We are now just waiting, to be honest I don't know what we are waiting on, but we do not have any more paper work at this moment. We met with our social worker and had our Enrich assessment last week, all went well there. Our social worker will come to our house one last time before the adoption in August.
    Just a couple of days ago we got an email from our adoption agency that we can now send him a package and ask a few updated questions about him. We have been preparing a little box to send him, right now we have a cute soft blanket, a light up bouncy ball, a package of plastic cars, crayons and a coloring pad. We are going to add a photo album of us, a disposable camera and a few things for the nannies there.
    We bought our first few shirts and bottoms for him, which  is exciting to me, its been too long since Ive been able to buy little boy clothes. We are not going to buy much until closer to the time we go to get him, that is the hard part, not knowing what size to get him. According to his medical records, he didn't gain a pound between 18mo and 33mo, he is now 39 months old, and we hope to see an updated height and weight soon.
   We are able to post a picture of him, so I will post a picture of our beautiful son! We are still debating on his name, we want it to start with an H, feel free to post some ideas! He will keep his Chinese name for a middle name.
   Please continue to pray for us, we appreciate the support. We got our first donation from our blog this week, from my Aunt, thank you so much, everything helps and is so appreciated!

He is such a doll!
