today we finalized the adoption to make it legal,   this is the cover the certficate comes in.  below the boys are holding the certificate. 









there is a lap pool and a kiddie pool,   they are enjoying both. 




some more photos from beijing






its very surreal adding another this way,   very different than i imagined.  THEN she doesn't speak english  :-)   so communication is rough.   i tried studying mandarin before i left but it was HARD,   i am actually picking it up quicker (just words)  here.   i am trying very hard to be able to at least communicate with her.   but know i won't be fluent.
