We have a baby girl! We received our referral call at 3:20 p.m. on Thursday, May 25th. We are so lucky to live close to our agency. We drove over and got the packet around 5:00 p.m. Her Chinese name is Long Mei Zhi. We have given her the name Addison Claire Meizhi Martin. Her birthdate is 7/25/05. She is 16 lbs. and 26 inches long. She is residing in an orphangae in the Guangxi province. She was abandoned at birth. She is listed as an active baby with a ready smile. She is fond of playing games, quick in reaction, laughs aloud, and impatient sometimes. Her favorite toys are the drum and jingle bells. She has zero teeth, is a moderate sleeper and sucks her fingers in her sleep .

We think she is aboslutely beautiful! We hope to travel at the end of June/early July. We have been floating since Thursday. It's the most amazing feeling in the world when you see that picture for the first time! We love her so much!
