Paper Pregnant

We are what they call "paper pregnant" right now. After many many months of paperwork, lots and lots of paperwork, we are done with what they said was the hard part. Well, little did we know that the paperwork was actually easier than the WAIT!

Here's a funny picture - since we are expecting a baby girl some time - this is our ultrasound picture! Ha Ha!

Our Family

Our family consists right now of Melanie, Vince, Guy (age 9) and Grant (age 6) - and of course Armstrong (2 - our 90lb Golden Retriever). We are very excited to add to our family - a very special little girl from China. We can't wait to go get her and she will be named Leah. Her middle name will be her Chinese name most likely. Grant says that we can hardly wait to see her - and pictures of her. Guy says that he can't wait to hold his baby sister. The boys are very excited.

Join us as we wait for Leah!

This blog is set up so that the Payne family can report on our wait for our baby girl from China. We are LID 12/9/2005 (that's Log in Date of our paperwork in China). The current wait for referral (a picture of our baby girl) is around 12 months. We hope it does not get much longer. That puts us in China some time at the beginning of next year. More to come as I learn how to work this blog!
