Forever Family Day Pics…

Good morning, here are some of the hundreds of photos from Zachary’s Forever Family Day…

Hunan Provincial Adoption Affairs Offices
Our FINAL Family photo as a Family of 7!!
The waiting is the hardest part…
There are so many of them, And they’re so BIG!
Why is there only one girl…  Only 1 Jiejie?
That’s close enough…
Digging around for some snacks to share.
Here’s a snack, Mom.
An Orange for Ryan.
And one for you Dad.
Dylan peeling an orange for his new little Brother
Wait…  Wha…    Is that an iPhone video I hear?   
UC’s Phone to the rescue
Tyler sharing some entertainment.
Hmmm, I think this might be turning around…a little bit.
Gege Kyle.
After only a moment or two, it was all over. Life changes quickly for us sometimes.  And we were on our way – to welcome Zachary and to get on with the rest of our lives.
Zach seems to like Playgrounds.  He needs to learn that quickly.  We visit a LOT of playgrounds!!
Getting on just fine.
He has done this before…
We walked to Carrefour, and Zachary was all in.
Dylan, trying everything to overcome the LOW Quality of the Air.
Meds, Tea, Masks – whatever it takes.
Looks like bonds are beginning to form already 
Giant Mutant Carrots at Carrefour
Dylan, not sure if he’s approving of the whole communal rice bin thing!
Ryan thinks he’s at Costco on a Saturday – SAMPLES !!!
Settling right in with his Cups and Cars in the room.
Walking to Carrefour for Supplies.  Our Hotel is the second from the far right, with the downward pointing triangular roof.
No wonder D is having problems with the haze/smog!
More bonding
McD’s Ice Cream at the Hotel – on the steps by the waterfall fountain.
Scooter equipped with Oven Mitts to keep hands warm!
The Hotel Lobby Christmas Shop
Sheraton Changsha Lobby
“Nobody OutPizza’s the Hut!”

Zachary, meet Pizza.  Pizza, meet Zachary.

You’ll be seeing a lot of each other and we’re sure your friendship will grow!
Devouring some Pasta donated by Gege Ryan, and some Apple Chunks from Jiejie.
They never had a chance…
Dinner out with the Gang.  Hopefully he’ll adjust well to our dinner table at home.
Drinking from a cup is a bit of a challenge – that’s what Big Brothers are for!
Scrubby Bubble Bath #1 was a rousing success.  He had a grand time!
And notice they stylish post-bath, pre-Bed footwear!! Thanks Sheraton!
The perfect end to a perfect day.

  1. We were so lucky to be a part of that first day!!! Thanks for allowing us to come along. We love you all so much!!! Aunt Meg and Uncle Curt

  2. How is it with each one of your six children, there seems to be such a sweet, caring thread that runs through all of them!!! What hearts they have and what a wonderful job the two of you as parents are doing! Just add one more to the pot and stir for a perfect mix!
