That's right, folks... We have a SON! We got the referral of a baby boy on 2/5!! His name is JoonSeong Lee. Joon means excellent and Seong means achieve. We are still deciding on his American name, but planning to keep a portion of his Korean name. Mr. and Mrs. Choi are his foster parents and they are 64 years old!! They have two grown kids of their own and have been fostering babies for over 20 years!! Here are pics of him at his 5 month check-up.
He is about 16 lbs . His Birthday is August 20. In his medical reports, amoungst other things, the doctor described him as "Cute and Alert".
Joon and Mrs. Choi
According to Mrs. Choi, he loves baths, is babbling a lot, and laughs often. Could it get any better than this?!
So, for those wondering what's next: We continue to work with the Immigration office while the agency works with the Korean government to start the process of bringing him home. We recieved his birth certificate last week and are still in a whirlwind of paperwork and notaries... All in all, it is another 3-6 months until we travel to Seoul to get him. June would be a lovely time to travel...cross your fingers!
