Welcome to the Nichols' homepage. We are Shirley and Kelly and we are very excited to be going to China to get our baby girl. Our son, Gregory, is excited, too; at least most of the time (we are definitely going to have some jealousy issues).

After careful consideration, we chose China's program because it was established, efficient, and did not appear to have any problems. Of course, the most compelling factor was that there were many beautiful baby girls available for adoption. The paperwork was no picnic and there were many times that I thought we would never have a dossier in China. In all, it took approximately 7-8 months to get the paperwork complete and off to China where it was logged in May 20, 2005.

Please join us on our journey to China to get Sophia.
