MATCHED!!!

I know this posting is way late..   more and more people are asking about our Blog (which I set up in May...) so we are going to be more diligent about updating it.

On August 23rd (Kerri's Birthday) we got "the call" from our agency that they had a file to share with us.  One look and it was done.  This amazing little boy would be our son.  
Meet JianJia!

His birthday is 9/19/2011

His surname (last name) is Zheng.   This name actually comes from the orphanage/city where he has been cared for from the beginning.
 

Then we learned (from the very friendly people at our agency) that that name is actually pronounced with a hard "J" sound for the "Zh".  and "eng" is pronounced more like our "ung" sound.   Um.  That means it is pronounced like we pronounce "Junge".   (For those that don't know us, our last name is Junge, which is a German name and is normally pronounced more like "Younga".   Of course,  we don't pronounce it that way.  We don't sound out the 'e' so we actually pronounce it more like "Jung".)   All a long way of saying,

Our little guy already has our last name!!  No coincidence, no irony, but God's plan from the beginning.

His Chinese First name is Jian,  and middle name is Jia.   We have seen his name on some of the documentation as "Jianjia".  

We are going to call him Michael :)   I'll save the explanation for another post.

More to come soon!
