We have a boy




We just got back from the adoption agency and Makayla is now Andrew. In our paperwork it asked for a girl. Our home study and paperwork from the INS says girl.Which our agency has to notify INS and ask if that is going to be a problem. However we got a wonderful healthy boy.

god must of wanted us to have a boy. So I am posting his pictures .

So many things to do and change. His clothes are all pink and purple dresses. His room is all pink and diva decor. His baby scrapbook is all pink and has Makayla all over it. This blog has Makayla and is written for a girl.

For all those from Rumor queen web site that are still waiting I am going to suggest when buying things wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This could happen to you. Laughing!!!!

Ok this is the info that I have on our son . There is lots more that needs to be converted to english still which we should get back on Tuesday.

His name is: Yi Yang Feng
He is from: Jianxi Province / Fencheng SWI China
He is: Healthy
He is : So cute. I fell in love with him the moment I saw his face.
( and yes I cried)
He was born: Oct 27th, 2008
He is : In foster care (which I was really hoping for)

He sleeps til 9 am ( works for me)
moderate to light sleeper
Loves music
very active
impatient sometimes
plays with toys
laughs aloud
has quick reaction time


Everytime I would buy something in the girls department, everyone would say what "If it is a boy" and he Is !!!!!!!!!!

here are the pictures that everyone has been waiting for

Our SON ANDREW SMETAK


so sometime this week I have to update the blog to Say ANDREW!!!!!!


I should of listened to the hubby about not buying till the referral . lol


Now we have to wait 6-8 weeks then we go over to China and get him..... It gives me a little time to box up his room and buy boy things.

When we were in China we learned that pink is not a feminine-exclusive color there. We would be out with our pink-clad daughter and were repeatedly asked "boy or girl?" by Chinese people.

Your son is stunning. Many congratulations! He looks delicious enough to eat!

Found you though RQ - he is beautiful! I have a closet full of girl clothes waiting for our daughter(?). We have a 21 month son (an interim adoption) that I keep packing up his clothes to give away - my Mom has talked me into keeping them, just in case! Congratulations on your referral - boys are so much fun!

Karyn said...

Congratulations! A friend sent me over, we had the same experience, (though had decorated in a neutral color scheme) in November 2006. Our son is the light and joy of our lives.

He is adorable!! I to adopted a boy from China 2 years ago. He was special needs (cleft lip and palate) so I knew that I was having a boy. He is wonderful and he will be a hit at all the Chinese outings since there are mostly girls. So I tell eveyrone I will have to buy Mattie a Tux because he will have LOTS of prom dates. Have fun shopping!!!!!!

Debbie said...

How exciting. Our Darci is from Fengcheng SWI. We just got back from China on June 14. She was adopted on June 14. She was in fostercare and only spent the very first night after being found in the orphanage, the rest of her life she spent with her foster family. Congratulations, please feel free to contact me with any questions you might have about the orphanage or the town of Nanchang. my3gals@sbcglobal.net

Congratulations on your beautiful boy! We too have a 3/22/06 LID and have been referred a girl from the SAME orphanage! E-mail me, as I'm sure we'll be in the same room receiving our babies at the same time! I followed your link from RQ.

Congratulations! We also started out in 2005 expecting a girl from China, and ended up with a boy...we chose a waiting child, but I had a pink crib blanket, dresses and pink clothes! We can not be happier with our SON. Your son is adorable and I am sure that you will have fun shopping for him.

Congrats- he is adorable!
I am a FengCheng mom, too.
My daughter, Madalyn Jing-E, was born 7-26-07 and our Gothca day was 5-21-08. Like the other FengCheng moms that commented, it is a great SWI, with a super Foster mom program. I hope you have a great trip, with a speedy TA, and cannot wait to follow your journey.
