Leah's Adoption

Welcome to our blog about the final adoption process for Leah. We thought it might be easier to let everyone know how things are going in China if we did a blog.

Wednesday, December 27

We spent the morning walking around one of the main shopping districts. We spotted a McDonalds and wanted to see if Leah would like the french fries. She did. Now she eats 3 things: formula, cheerios, and now McDonalds french fries.

In the afternoon we went to the USA consolute and completed the paperwork process for Leah's US visa. It's now official. We can bring her into the US, and paperwork is now done for this side of the ocean. Interestingly, when we go through customs in the US, we will need to do so as foreigners. Leah won't become a US citizen until she passes through customs and immegration after our flight home.


Leah's first french fries at McDonalds.


This sign cracked us up. McDonalds sells a "green bean pie" in a similar form to our "hot apple pie". I've never been a bg fan of McDonalds food, and this made me even less of a fan.


People everywhere in the shopping district.

Lara & Jim,

Congratulations to your whole family! Your messages and photos are so amazing -- especially during the Christmas season. She is truly a blessing!

Good luck on your long flight home. Maybe we will have a chance to meet her when we visit the Rielly's in Seattle!

Mary and Rob Hogan and boys
