Guangzhou

We finally made it to our hotel at midnight last night! Our flight was delayed and we were stuck on the plane for several hours. Anna Grace did great though. She fell asleep as we were going towards the runway and then slept the entire flight, through the airport, and all the way to the hotel. She did not wake up until this morning. This girl can sleep!! Right now she is napping before we go for our medical exam.

Our hotel is very nice. There are tons of adoptive families here in the hotel and there are lots of shops close by. The hotel even gave us a Barbie doll called the "Going Home Barbie" with an American mommy and a Chinese baby. The streets here are not nearly as busy as in Zhengzhou. We feel much safer walking down the streets by our hotel and looking in the little shops. We already bought Anna Grace a little bracelet, a Chinese baby doll, and a pair of squeeky shoes this morning.

On the home front, Cole broke a piece of his tooth off at Alex's end of season soccer party, and Uncle Kevin had to take him to get a crown yesterday! I feel bad that we were not there for him, but Kevin did a great job. Of course we now have a dentist bill sitting on the kitchen counter at home. We had hoped to replace our broken camera here in Guangzhou where prices are a lot cheaper, but now that might not happen. Still, we are so thankful that we have such great family members looking afer our boys while we are away.

I have to go pack up our papers for our medical appointment. I will post again soon!
