The big day arrived! We sad in a somewhat sad looking city council type office, and 5 minutes into the paperwork they brought him in. Cameras and Video not ready!
He cried right away, and then warmed up. His picture of us was in and out of his booklet. Daddy made the mistake of biting on the corner, so that's what he liked doing too.
We also have a problem with his passport (takes 5 days minimum) but eventually we got that smoothed out and should have it in a day.
Gotta run, someone wants to be held!

YAY,thanks for the picture! I know you're busy but I've been checking your blog every hour or so waiting to see your pictures. He is on your lap, I'm so excited. He is such a handsome little guy. You guys look so happy! He looks just the right size to be Josie's best bud.

Oh my goodness! I am tearing up over here. He is the CUTEST boy I have ever seen. And he seems quite taken with mom and dad! Heather, you look absolutely beautiful. Motherhood favors you. Tell Dustin not to hog Mason!
We are so happy for you guys. It is an unbelievable feeling the first time you see your child. He is so cute and the family photos are awesome. We are all very exited for you so please keep the updates coming.
BTW - Chandler was our guide from the Beijing airport to the hotel and then Ty handled our tours within China. Both of them were excellent guides.
