We Have A Little Girl!

OUR REFERRAL IS HERE!!!
This afternoon after being told by our agency that the package was not coming today we got a phone call saying "It's Here!"

Here is the important stuff so far.

Name: Yang Guo Guan (pronounced Yang (like long) Gwa Gwan)
Birthday: May 20, 2004 (estimated)
On Sept 26th she weighed 18 pounds and was 29 inches long (she is just a little peanut!)

She was abandoned when she was about 3 months old without a note, so her age was estimated-thus the May 20th birthdate.

I have to admit I was shocked and initially bummed with an older referral. We got the oldest one in the group. But she is so adorable in her pictures and we know that God desires her to be part of our family if she cannot be with her birth family.

Okay....Meet Miss Olivia Stahley....

What a cutie!!! You can tell she has a great personality, too!
I was initially pretty bummed when I found out our daughter was older as well. We had the call one day and didn't get to see the pictures till around noon the next day. I didn't sleep much than night, for sadness over the additional time missed with her, but I kept telling myself to just wait for the pictures and it would be fine--and sure enough, it was love at first sight! Those red threads stay connected up right no matter what we think!
Congratulations!!!!
