Just look at them. Britton looks like he is loving being a big brother and little Miss Lia Kate seems to be enjoying herself immensely. Just precious... Love you.
Oh my gosh! That is the sweetest thing I've seen. I think we need to eventually send Britton over to teach Carter how to be a good big brother...he's got it down!
May - June 2007 Choose an agency -- Lifeline Children's Services -- and start paperchasing.

January 2008 - August 2009 WAITING. Adoptions are moving very S-L-O-W-L-Y.
August 2009 We decide to pursue a special needs child and begin reviewing files here and there.
October 21, 2009 We get Lia Kate's file and know she is ours! Send off our LOI (Letter of Intent) to adopt her.
October 27, 2009 We get Pre-Approval (PA) from the Chinese government to adopt Lia Kate!
November 16, 2009 Our Letter of Approval (LOA) came saying we are approved to adopt Lia Kate! We waited only 3 1/2 weeks to get it ... crazy fast. Hoping to leave for China in December.
