Our BIG News!

We know this is not exactly the news everyone has been expecting! Everyone (including us) knew we were waiting (for over two years now) for a referral of a baby GIRL, under age 2, from China. Now, here we are introducing our SON, almost age 3! We know this is taking most of you by surprise. All we can say is the moment we saw our first photo of Bao Xinsheng we knew immediately he was supposed to be our son. It felt no different than looking at a photo of Donovan. We just KNEW.
In the past month we've done a lot of waiting (see Timeline), until we got our Prior Approval (PA) and were given permission to share our news and our new son’s photo. The CCAA agreed to transfer Bao Xinsheng's file from the agency listing him on their Waiting Child List, to our agency - something that is not commonly done. (We are thrilled about this because we love our agency, and we did not want to have to transfer agencies.) There is MUCH MORE to our story, which we will share in the coming weeks and months...
Now, here we go on the next part of our journey...hoping to travel in Spring 2010 to be united with Bao Xinsheng.
We hope you will join us in celebrating our wonderful news - that we now have a second son (also age 3!). We cannot wait to go to China to get him!
