Getting ready for Jasmine

Time to travel

Well the room is ready and the bags are packed. Cold in  Beijing but warmer in Nanchang, where Jasmine is living so we need to bring a variety of clothes for both places. Not sure how much she weighs so we also have to bring clothes for her in various sizes. All of a sudden everything is pink!

Introducing Jasmine Caiju Hickey

We are happy to say the stork finally arrived  on December 18, 2012 when we received a referral on our beautiful daughter Jasmine from Jiangxi,China. She is ten months old ,born on February 11, 2012 in the year of the dragon. We are hoping to travel to China on January 25 to bring her home!

Simon's 11th Birthday with cousin Lucky.

Simon passed away March 2011. He was with us for 13 years. We have lots of fun memories and stories about Simon to share with Jasmine. For those who knew Simon you will remember how he always seemed to get himself into trouble. We still miss him everyday.

Happy 9th Birthday Simon!

This is Simon, our precious doggy.
