A Very Happy Girl

She is asleep right now. Oh my, what a happy little girl. We have another little ham in the family. She is amazing!!!

It was nap time, so I brought her back to the room while William spoke with the Nannies. I just layed her on the bed, she starred into my eyes and just feel asleep. I just keep watching her.

Anyway, William has gone to get some congee now for when she wakes up. The doctor will come by this evening for a check up between 7:30 and 8:30, so I might be a little later on that skype call!

Here She Is

Still Up

It's only 8:30 here. I'm still up. William's been asleep for a while. I went down and had dinner with some others from our group. Then hit the grocery store for some Sprite. That was interesting. This place kinda has that Vegas atmosphere. And the way some of these young girls dress and act kinda makes me wonder. This is not anything like Beijing. If you stop walking, crowds will come all around you and we haven't even gotten our babies yet. It's a little unnerving to say the least.
It is smoggy here and the smell can really turn your stomach. To me it's like a stale Ash tray with water that has been sitting for days. The air is thick.
There are some really nice families here with us. Ten to be exact. Not all of the babies are coming from the same orphanage. Sophie, Savannah, Augustine, Lydia, and I believe one other are in the same orphanage and have a four hour train ride ahead of them tomorrow. I have also checked out that baby formula thing Daddy told me about. I have the brand name written down. We don't want any of that.
Well, guess I'll try to get some sleep. You guys have a nice day:)

Btw, thanks for all the comments. I look forward to them each day.

Chongqing

We have arrived in Chongqing! Tomorrow is the big day. It has kinda seemed like we've just been on vacation. You know, all this sightseeing. It's been wonderful, BUT to walk in this door and see that crib. It was just ...... well ....it made things seem real. I'm putting together a diaper bag and that just felt good!

It's a lot different here. Today is the Moon Festival and their are alot of people out and man are they starring. I guess we'll get used to it, but it's a little scary. At the Great Wall we had a few ask to take pictures with me, they were smiling, very friendly. I'm just not getting that same feeling here. Could be wrong, this is just the first day. This is a MAJOR shopping area. There is this underground mall, Sleepless Town, under the Hotel that feels like it goes forever. Then you come up the escalators to this world of shops, stores high, even McDonalds is two floors. Everything is in walking distance and it is crowded. I haven't taken any pictures of this YET. But I will. For now these will have to do.

Btw, HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHRISTOPHER!
