It has been a long day starting with "the call" at 10:00 am from Kim our social worker. The only information she had was Annierae's Chinese name - Qian Mei Yuan - and her birth date 12/16/2004. We then waited until 5:30 for Kim to deliver the rest of the information....thank you so much Kim for working late!!!
So here is the information:
Qian Mei Yuan currently resides in China at the Qianjiang District Social Welfare Institution, Chongqing City (detailed map). She weighs 14.3 Lbs and is 25.59" long and in very good health. She smiles a lot, loves her baths and her favorite toy is a doll.
They say that the staff in the "matching room" try to match the facial expressions to their parents....funny because she looks like Greg, what a cutie!!!! We are so in love with this little one and we are so blessed and cannot wait to have her in our arms. We will be traveling in 6-8 weeks -- more info on that to follow.
Needless to say I have been a basket case all day and will have the worse cry hang over tomorrow, so I am heading off to bed. Greg and I would like to thank all of you for your love and support through this long process, and we're eager to share our experiences in China.
God Bless!!!

Krissy,
I just saw Nancy today and she told me about your exciting news. I am so excited for you. Annierae is so precious. You will have so much fun being a mommy. Nancy and I were talking about what a great mom you will be. I will keep you guys in my prayer over the next few months. Our next door neighbors have adopted 2 little girls (now 3 and 4) and just came home in June with a 9 yr. old boy. They now have 7 kids.It has been so fun being a part of their lives. love, Lynne F (T)
Greg and Kristine - How wonderful for all of you. We are so excited for you and can hardly wait to hold this precious little one. Annierae is so blessed to have such wonderful playmates.
Much love -
Raquel & Bryson
Annierae - I am so excited for your arrival. You have so many toys for us to play with and I can hardly wait to make a mess in your playroom. There is lots of room for me to chase you around and play tag. You are going to be the best playmate.
Lots of hugs -
Bryson
