Lily Mei Chun

Introducing Lily Mei Chun!!!

DOB: February 5, 2008

Jiangxi Province
Yugan SWI






We can't stop looking at these pictures!! She is just so cute!
She fits in perfectly with our family with the round face and big cheeks. I can't wait to plant thousands of kisses on those cheeks. These pictures were taken when she was just about 4 months old. At that time she weighed 13 lbs and 23 inches long. She looks healthy to us!! We learned her most favorite activity is to be carried by caregivers to go to busy places! Well, looks like our busy schedule will be just fine for Lily! I think we will spend some time just enjoying these pictures!

HI-
We are a waiting family that just received our referral this past monday. After I saw your daughters picture I noticed that she was in the same saucer as our daughter. I think they are in the same SWI right now! Hannah Hope is 7months old and we can't wait to meet her. SO COOL that your precious little girl is in the same place as ours! We may not get to travel until October so if you go before us I would love to hear how everything goes. We are Eric & Patty Braendel from Fredericksburg, VA. Hannah will join Emily, Luke, & Gunther as their little sister! Congratuations to your family!

What a cute baby girl. I will be going to a build a bear in new york to make sure she understands the rivalry that exists in MASS. This is an amazing story and we are all so happy for the Devine Family.

Congratulations!!! She is PRECIOUS!! We are also blessed with a beautiful girl that was affiliated with the Yugan SWI!!!! We brought her home last May. I can tell you that if she is in Foster Care (like Ruby was) or if she is actually at the SWI she is being very loved!!! Our group of tiny blessings were precious! You can check out our journey and some photos of Yugan at www.myadoptionwebsite.com/diandjeff or current photos of Ruby at our blog. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions! My email is dijorouse@yahoo.com. There is also a Yugan SWI Yahoo Group if you did not know that. I am happy to get you the address!
Blessings!!!!!!
