Night, night...



If this picture doesn't melt your heart, please close this web page and immediately head to the nearest clinic! Can she be any sweeter?!

Tasting Daddy...



Mia has an obsession with tasting everything. Her little tongue is always hanging out! We thought is was so funny that during a sweet and tender moment, Mia felt it was appropriate to try and taste Daddy's nose...
Silly Mia!

Happy Family!



While we had Mia dressed up for her big photo shoot, we figured we'd take the opportunity to try and get a good family portrait! If only Dad had remembered to shave... At least Mia has upped the beauty quotient in the family. We've gone from 50% beautiful to 66% beautiful.

Red Couch photo



It has become a tradition for all adoptive families staying at the White Swan to take a group picture on the 'Red Couch' in the lounge. It's loads of fun as everyone dresses their new daughters up in traditional silk dresses. They are all so adorable... As you can see, the Mom's had their hands full trying to prop the kids up, while the Dad's snapped several thousand photos! Can you pick out which one is little Mia?

Happy Dad's!



Today was Mid Autumn Moon Festival here in China. It's actually the largest holiday of the year for gift giving... We celebrated by having a group tea party in the hotel. Kenny's little girl Molly was having a hard time staying awake, so Mia decided to pet her and make sure she slept soundly!! The woman in the photo is Catherine. She is our local Holt adoption agency representative. She is originally from Beijing, but has been living in Guangzhou for the past 10 years. She is an amazing woman who is on call 24 hours to help us out with anything and everything we need.
She loves Mia and has been hugely helpful to us during our stay. We'll miss Catherine...

Christmas Baby!



Mia wanted everyone to see her first Chanukah jacket! Added bonus that it doubles as her Christmas coat... Isn't she adorbable?
