Adopting Lily XiZhen Young

Travel to China

This is the first picture we received of Han, Xi Zhen
 
 

A group of anxious parents-to-be gather in Boston.
 
 

We visited wonderful placed like here, the entrance to
The Great Wall
 
 

It was a little cool there.
 
 

And windy too
 
 

A soldiers life on the wall was not very glamorous
 
 

A very impressive human feat
 

Very nice patios and terraces
 
 

Here we are at The Summer Palace
 
 

A double decker patio
 
 

The Forbidden City
 
 

Just incredible
 
 

Yes, it even snows in China
 
 

Our fourth day in China
A caretaker from the orphanage brings Lily to us at the hotel.
 
 

A very exciting day. And she is so beautiful :)
 
 

She bonds with Mama right away.
 
 

Our first family photo.
 
 

We are lucky, she eats well.
 
 

A very proud mother.
 
 

Our guide Helen takes us to the American Consulate for Lily's Visa
Helen met us in Beijing and stayed with us the entire trip until we departed
for the U.S.A..
 
 

The lobby at the White Swan Hotel in Guangzhou
 
 

Home sweet home
 
 

Lily is turning out to be a wonderful normal little girl.
 
 

My daughter the Artist :)
