Welcome to our blog!

Welcome to our blog and thanks for checking in.  We're going to do our best to document our journey to China to adopt Song Meng Ying (Juliet).  We're excited to be going back and we're set to leave on Thursday, October 13th.  We fly from Detroit directly to Shanghai, where we'll be staying the night before traveling to Hangzhou the next day.  Our "Gotcha Day" is October 16th and we'll be in Hangzhou for about a week.  From there, we'll travel to Guangzhou to visit the American Embassy to finalize the adoption.  We'll be leaving China on October 26th, arriving back in Detroit on October 27th ... just in time for Luke's 11th birthday!  Both he and Mia are very excited to meet their new little sister!!  Here are a couple of the most recent pictures we've received of Juliet.  However, these are from July so we expect her to be much bigger!

    She is such a cutie and I love how you have combined her Western name Juliet with her Chinese name Song. Wishing you safe and happy travels.
