Happy Chinese New Year!!

The call we have been waiting and waiting for finally came!! Our agency called us this morning at 9:40 am. Introducing Mei Ai Huang, soon to be Lizzie Mei!

Born: April 3, 2005-We hope to be home with her for her first birthday, but at the very least will be with her!
Resides: Hubei Province in the city of Huangmei. She is in foster care where she is obviously very well fed!!

Weight: At six months she was 18.7 pounds!!! I have to start lifting weights.
Height: 27.1 inches
She had no teeth, loves playing outside, toys that make noise, listening to music, and mimicking people! She could roll over, sit up unassisted, eat a biscuit by herself, and tear paper! She is a DEEP SLEEPER who goes to bed at 8:00 pm and wakes up at 7:00 am.

We are over the moon!!! All the waiting is a blip on the radar now. So excited. Thank you CCAA for our beautiful daughter!!

Holy Toledo, that is one INCREDIBLY cute kid. I mean, really! Who thought they made Chinese Nate girl babies? Her photo was a HUGE hit at the Chinese New Year dinner we attended!! I cannot wait to kiss those apple cheeks.

Rhonda, How wonderful to see your gorgeous daughter! And, how exciting that you will be going to Hubei (Helen's home province). Let me know when you want the low-down on Wuhan, where you will most likely be stationed for the first week of your trip. We were there in Spring too, so I can advise on weather. Woo Hoo! --Kelly
