Adorable little girl, I'm so happy for you :)
Congratulations on your beautiful baby girl! We got back Mar. 15th from China, same orphanage, with our sweet little Jiang Ai Wan from DJ SWI. All babies with Ai as middle name were born in the same year. It is a wonderful orphanage, we had a large group adopting from there, all healthy and happy babies. The ayis [nannies] are great; we were able to visit the orphanage as a group and I hope you are able to do so also!
email if you have any questions, there is also a yahoo group for DJ kids/families!

Ok, I know I already gushed about Briana, but I showed AB and he gushed too! So it's not just you - she really is a beauty!
Meanwhile, I tagged you for a meme on my site. Check it out when you're able to come off cloud nine (can't blame you one bit!)
Hugs,
