It's A Girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Introducing the newest addition to the C family.... the most precious and beautiful little girl in the world.... Xiu Hua Mei.






She is 8 months old and is currently in Chongqing City, China.
Here are more pictures of her:







This has been a totally surreal morning. I sat by the phone with my palms sweating and my heart racing like crazy. Then "the call" came from my agency... and then the email with these amazing pictures. Words cannot describe what this feels like. I am happy, elated, overjoyed, humbled, thankful, grateful, and mostly blessed.

Congratulations! Your daughter is very beautiful! What made me laugh was the lip curl, combined with the hair cut it reminded me a little of Elvis! Love me tender indeed!

Pretty soon she'll be in her highchair demanding more Cheerios making those cute little faces!

As someone who has BTDT twice, let me say that the "surreal" part never wears off. I still look at them and think, "Wow... really??"
