Here she is!!! Isn't she beautiful??? Anthony and I just cried when we saw her for the first time. The grandparents just screamed and said she is soooo pretty (oh and some blubbered like a whale!!! :) We are sooo proud of her and we think, as all parents do, that she is the most beautiful little girl ever!!!! We are so excited and can't wait to hold her in our arms. I can't even imagine how we will feel then. Anthony was trying to get her to crawl to him out of the picture!!! HAHAHA!! I will post more of our feelings later, but right now I can't really think straight. God has truly blessed us beyond anything we could imagine!! PRAISE THE LORD!! Hope you enjoy!!Saturday, July 7, 2007

WE HAVE A DAUGHTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YEAH!!! We got the call at 2:45 pm from America World that we have a little girl. Her name is Chen Li Jian
Hunan Province
Born: Nov. 20, 2006...yep barely 7 months!!!! (we asked for AYAP)
In an orphanage
Last vitals were on April 10th: she weighed 5.8kg (12 pounds) and 62 cm (24.4 inches a little over 2 feet)
They say she has beautiful dark eyes and just a little hair, so no bows for a while. AWAA said she is beautiful (but I bet they tell everyone that :) We don't care...she's going to be gorgeous!!
Tentative travel dates are end of August, beginning of Sept.
We cannot begin to tell you how excited we were. I don't really remember much, except what I wrote down, and all I remember is shaking and crying!!! It's the most wonderful experience. I HATED the wait from knowing it was coming today until the call....seemed like forever!!! But it finally came.
We will have picture tomorrow, it was too late to send them tonight, so I will post them as soon as I can tomorrow. Thank you to all who prayed! All my kids were home or able to be called and my very special friends were all in town and I was able to call them!!
PRAISE THE LORD!!
I have to tell you these things that just proves that she is sent to us and picked by God himself. Her birthday is my dad's only brother's birthday and he passed in 1999 it's also my new sister-in-laws birthday. Her middle name is Li and both Anthony's grandmothers had Lee as their middle name. Anthony's sister and our niece also have Lee as the middle name. I thought how neat it would be if her middle name was Li and it was...oh my goodness, I promise!! So her name will be Olivia Denae-Li. Another thing, that beautiful little girl, Alana, that I have become soo close to is also from Hunan!!! And one more thing....we got the call a day before my dad's birthday!!! All these things above makes us see even more that this is God's baby girl for us and we couldn't be happier!!!
Her brothers are sooo excited. They just can't wait to see her finally!!!!
Sooo until tomorrow....I hope I can sleep!!! WE HAVE A DAUGHTER!!!! THANK YOU GOD!!!
