Bundle of Joy


We learned more about our happy baby today when we went to the adoption agency to pick up her translated file. She loves to giggle loudly. She likes to be amused and entertained. She is active, outgoing and energetic -- always kicking her legs and waving her arms. She also likes to be held all the time. Hummm, all of it sounds very familiar.

We learned the meaning of her name. Fu is the surname of the orphanage. Wen means beautiful cloud tints. Lian means lotus. How pretty.

What wonderful information to get today. I have to say it one more time. We are truly blessed.

  1. Congratulations, Doug and Allison! I am so happy for you - it's been a long, long wait. My Ying is also a Jiangxi girl – and I met her 3 years ago tomorrow! You will love Nanchang. It is beautiful, lots to see and do, and really good food. I can’t believe our big girls are 7 – seems like we just met them in Guangzhou last week. Tell Natalie that Olivia loves being a big sister and hopes that she will, too!
