This blog will document the tribulations and adventures my husband and I encounter while working towards adopting a baby girl from China.

Holiday Season
As we enter Maddie's first holiday season, all sorts of exciting events are happening. We took Maddie to Slippery Rock for Thanksgiving. There she met and was reintroduced to Melanie's family. We had a great Thanksgiving dinner and relaxing time with friends and family. Maddie also experienced the Grove City Prime Outlets. While the four-hour car ride wasn't much fun, Maddie agrees it was better than the 17-hours of flying back from China.

This past weekend, we dressed Maddie up in a Christmas outfit and took some pictures:




Then we went to the Central Ohio Chapter of Families with Children from China holiday party. Melanie made a great mandarin orange salad and we helped ourselves to some good food. Maddie was probably the youngest girl there and got lots of attention and compliments on her outfit. She also met Santa for the first time, although she fell asleep while waiting in line to see him, so probably didn't get the full affect.
