Registration and Notarization

We went to the Civil Affairs office again this morning (It's Wednesday the 15th here) for registration and notarization. First we had our family picture taken. Then we had a registration interview and a notarization interview (both basically the same): our age (they remarked how young we were :), marriage date, if we had any biological children, why we wanted to adopt from China, a promise to never mistreat or abandon Sadie, and if we were excited about the adoption and happy with our child. We passed and Sadie is officially ours!
