She's officially a Benson according to the state of Minnesota

Today, we went to the county courthouse and re-adopted Amanda. Since I (Beth) did not go to China, we needed to legally re-adopt her in Minnesota. Minnesota also requires that we wait three months, we just got it done today. So, officially today Xue Ru Dang became Amanda Grace Benson and has all the legal rights as a natural born child. Next, becoming an American citizen - then I have a personal party and shred adoption paperwork.



Also, a little cuteness. Her words are coming slowly but surely. Yesterday, I figured out what she was saying when the boys are arguing. She yells "guys!". Guess what I yell when they argue? So, she's in the tub and hears a fight outside the bathroom. She leans over the tub and yells "guys!". Like mother like daughter.
