catching up













Today is Saturday, 9:ooam. It was a rougher couple days. Annaka started to get a cough 2 nights ago. Yesterday she coughed all day. We have given her cough medicine but with the flight etc she had a rough day, not to mention her parents. We finally arrived at the hotel around 7:30 last night. It was dark so we couldn't see much outside but it is way different than where we were. Much more geared for tourism. There is not the poverty we saw in Nanchang. I am so glad we got to see that area of China. To see where Annaka and Laney would have been risen had they not been given up.


Annaka was up a lot last night, which means we were up lot last night. She decided to start the day at 4:30am.


We went for breakfast. What a difference. The food is wonderful and more geared towards what Americans like, best of all the coffee was great!


Today we meet Kristine at 10:30 for an apt for the girls physicals. It should take about one hour for all of us, then we are off to SHOP! The shopping looks a lot different here. We saw some cute things in the windows of the stores coming in. Raina is dying to shop, I am to. Squeaky shoes here we come!


I will leave you with some pictures of this morning. We will get more today. Raina has mentioned 4 times already that we have to get her camera and take pictures of the boats for Grampa Lee.

We can see Mommy has been shopping for 2 1/2 years. Lots of pretty pink new clothes. She really looks cute in pink...love the barrets/ribbons in her hair. You and Raina have a good time shopping - this is your favorite past time 'SHOPPING'. Let the Scott and Michon parent sit and you two take off to get those squeaky shoes.Have fun, see you soon!

Love,
Pa-pa and Na-na

Hi What great pictures.
Read your column. It is too bad the baby isn't feeling well. Hope by the time you read this that you guys have caught up on your sleep alittle and the baby too.
What are squeaky shoes? The shoes you got are very cute and colorful.
Aly is sleeping in this a.m., but not Andrew. He got up about 7.
