Emma's first St. Patrick's Day Parade

Today, we went downtown to see the St. Patrick's Day Parade. Emma enjoyed it a lot. It is wonderful to get to celebrate so many firsts with her! We are looking forward to celebrating her first Easter with her next weekend too!

We had sent off for Emma's passport about 2 weeks ago, and it came in the mail yesterday. Now, we are all ready to go back to China to pick up her sister, Allie. We should receive our LID (log in date) sometime next week, then the count to LOA (letter of approval) begins. Lately, they've been running right at 2 - 2.5 months, then TA, or travel approval has been coming 2-3 weeks after that! We should be traveling sometime in June.

Enjoy the pictures...
