We sent the acceptance paperwork on January 6th. This is a special day because it is her 6th month birthday. We got our legals back on January 25th, and were so happy they came quickly. Today we got some updated pictures of JooHyeon (haven't named her yet).  It is the best feeling to see updated pictures. I showed Nico the pictures as soon as he got home from preschool. He said, "Oh, she is a cutie." She has an incredible smile!! Now we are waiting for our I600 to be approved. The Dr. in Korea also stated that she didn't have club feet. We were thrilled to learn this information.

We sent our first care package to Korea. We can't wait to see a picture of her wearing some of these cute outfits. Nico helped pack up the box and was so excited. He can't wait to meet his baby sister! When we got to the post office he said, "Are we here to get her today?" We had to explain we were just mailing off the package, but we have to wait for JooHyeon to come home.

Today we had all the paperwork notarized! With the holidays everything was closed, so we had to wait.  Now we can send in our acceptance to Korea.

We took this picture of Nico in November at the art museum. So is this a sign?

Adoption Update


On Tuesday, we got a referral for a beautiful little girl named JooHyeon Kim. We were at a Christmas party when we got the call. I checked my phone and had two missed calls. I didn't recognized the number, and so I told Bill. He checked his phone, and he also had a missed call. Then we realized it was from Dillon. We were so excited and ran to the bedroom to call back!! That is when Allison told us about our sweet girl. We borrowed a computer and saw her beautiful face. She had a twinkle in her eye, and we fell instantly in love.  Here is our little girl.
