  9. Your son and my daughter are in the same place! I'm so excited. Our daughter was born on March 9th-I wonder how much contact they have had with each other? We too are looking to travel in 6-8 weeks.

  11. Congrats, my DD is also a Bo baby, home 2 years now! If you want info on the SWI and Yahoo group, email me on leahbonfili@dodo.com.au

    PS - no need to purchase the newspaper ad, you get given it in China and the sourvineer place next to the hotel also give you the original newspaper when you purchase from them.

  12. Congrats on your son. My Bo baby from Poyang was also born on March 2nd -- but in 2007. The Yahoo group contains lots of info (in the Databases) and pictures from Poyang. Plus I've just received some new Poyang photos that I'm planning to post in the next day or so (maybe your son is in some of the pictures).
