We're Adding a Little Pink...



to our world


instead of blue...




 Surprise!  It's a girl!


We're getting Emily, not Alex.  She's in Gansu, China.  Emily was born June 10, 2010.



We received pre-approval today! 

For those wondering....we did not request a girl or a boy.  We said either.   The girls and Kenton wanted a girl.  The boys and I wanted a boy.  An even split.  Our old agency said that if we really didn't care she was matching us with a boy.

 Then we changed agencies.  A girl it is.  We're all pretty excited about going to China for another little one.  BUT Davis sobbed himself to sleep the first night...and insists on praying for Alex instead of Emily.  However, he's holding us to the promise that HE can be the first one of the kids to hold our new little one so in the long run he'll get over it.
