Rosie's Gotcha Day, June 17, 2013

Monday, June 17, 2013 arrived and we now have Rosalie.   We are now a family of four.  Here are a few pictures of the beginning of bonding.  Rosie is a happy little girl and is bonding really well.  As expected, life is busy.  More to come....

We are finally meeting!

    2. Blogging has been difficult since we are so busy! Tech. issues held us back from sending the Gotcha Day video.
      We've been leaving the hotel around 10 every morning to tour Shanghai...the gardens are beautiful, and oh, got to tell you, I did get another Jade bracelet as an heirloom for Rosie.

  2. How sweet! I love the picture of Rosie looking up at her big sister. Congratulations on your second adoption. I have been following your blog for quite some time. I discovered it when I was searching for children adopted from Yifeng.

    1. Yes, We went to Nanchang in December 2011. We actually went to Shanghai first, then Nanchang to pick up Sophie and then on to Beijing to complete immigration paperwork. There were five babies from Yifeng in our travel group.

  5. Beautiful pictures! Rosie will always have a Gotcha Day to celebrate along with the end of the school year, just like Emily (6/18). I love how the girls are hugging in the picture - having a child already in the family really helps with such a big change for a little one. So happy for you all!!!
