Making it Legal!!!!




Today we took a trip to the Civil Affairs office to make us Olivia's legal parents. We filled out an all Chinese application for adoption. We also gave the Chinese agencies their fees. (Adoption donations and notary cost and we paid for her Chinese passport)Part of the proccess was that we had to answer the question, "Are you happy with your baby?" DUUUHHHH!!!!! I guess it was a fornality, but our answer was yes!!!!! We had to sign the papers and put our thumb prints on the form. Olivia had to put her right foot print on the form as well. She thought it was all very intriging. She is defintiely a Langley. INTO EVERYTHING!!! AND CURIOUS!!!! She has to touch everything. One of the highlights of ti time is that we get to meet the nannies from the orphanage and ask them questions about the baby. They said olivia was very active and very smart. When we walked up to them, they always smiled at Olivia. It seems like they will miss her. Here are some pictures of the proccess.
