Pre-approval

We got pre-approval today!!! 

Announcing our little girl, Caitlyn Noel. 

 

Caitlyn is a name we have had for about 12 years now.  We were just waiting for a girl and we had to negotiate a bit on the spelling, but this goes with our current "C" theme.  Noel is special because it is David's gradfather's name, Leon, backwards.  Leon never seemed to fit anywhere, but Noel fits perfectly and it will always mean something special to us.

 

We will also be working part of her current Chinese name into her name but are not supposed to post her Chinese name and are waiting to see what part of it she is called by. Unlike a lot of names assigned by orphanages, hers actually has a sweet meaning and we are excited to figure out how to honor where she is coming from in some way. 

 

So without further delay, Meet our Caitlyn!
