Official Adoption Day


Nap time with Dylan ... sure thing!



Sisters riding the bus to shopping



The kids enjoying the sights of Guangzhou



Waiting our turn to interview ... Luo has a bit of a cold



We are obsessed with wiping our hands!





Today we were up and out early to go back to the Civil Affairs office to complete the official adoption procedures. It began with a family photo and then two interviews. There were many families there along with our group completing the process. As of 11:00 Guangzhou tome Luolin became officially ours.

After our appointment, we went on a bit of a shopping spree at a very Walmart-like store. I have to say that WM is actually nicer ! We had to get the necessary things like diapers and such ... we headed back to the hotel for lunch and a nap (not so much) ... this afternoon we are going out for a walk, then meeting our group for a Cantonese dinner at one of the local restaurants.

Here are some pictures from today ...

  2. Kurt, I came across your exchange with Karen in Facebook and was a LITTLE surprised to see 'congrats on your new daughter' ???!!! I then followed your link to this blog site ... what a wonderful thing you're doing, what a beautiful little girl, and what a great family you have! Enjoy!
