About Us
- Dawn and Steve Pitz
- Juneau, WI, United States
- We began this adoption journey in January of 2005. We worked with Pauquette Adoption Services of Portage. After a few months of "paperchasing" we had our homestudy sent to China and it was logged in on October 21, 2005. We finally received our referral March 6, 2007. We then flew to China on May 11, returning home with our new daughter on May 26, 2007. Since then Olivia has brought nothing but joy and happiness to our family. Each day is a new adventure and it is thrilling to watch her grow and learn. We can't wait to see what the coming years will bring.

Thanks for the update & pix from Tuesday/Wed. She is sooo cute & we're so happy that she is bonding with all of you. Does Kyle like holding her or feeding her? I can only imagine how hard it had to be to go back to the orphanage & then watch as they put her back in her own bed - so glad she "velcroed" to you!! She is so cute & has a wonderful smile. Some day she will want to know every detail you know of her past & the area she was born in - now you have it along with the video & pictures to jog the brain in years to come.
I laughed when you said you ordered burgers - We do that on vacations too - can only take so much "local" or "healthy" foods & the ol' body asks for the dose of grease & beef!! I had heard that the major cities have been "westernized" & you can find much of the same foods we have here - the outlying areas are probably another story. I hope Jenny is feeling better - no fun being sick when there is so much to see & do!!
It sounds like you are kept busy all day - from getting all 5 of you ready for the day, eating & being ready for the next tour. I would love to see a live panda bear - they look so cuddly.
This week will fly back & you will be back in the USA - savor the moments left in China & keep up with the journal, video & pix - everyone will want to know EVERY detail about the trip.
See you next weekend!!
Love to all of you
Bob & Cindie
