Brian and his morning cup of coffee

It's really hot chocolate!

What you really want to see - Pictures!

Here are some photos

Checking In

Well I think I left off with going to W@almart which we did yesterday. We got some supplies and got the kids Mickey D's for lunch - so they were pleased! The weather has not been good it's been very cold and rainy all week so that's been hard for them. There is however a bowling alley right in our hotel - The Dolton Hotel if I hadn't mentioned it so Brian has been taking Paxton and Brian bowling with his mom most afternoons. This morning we visited the Hunan Embroidery Factory. The province in China that both Paxton and Gracyn are from is known for their extraordinary embroidery. So we went to see that this morning and helped the economy a bit. Sorry not pictures right now, we still have to upload them. I'll try and update pictures tonight.

It's Official

Well all the provincial paperwork is done, now we just wait for Gracyn's passport and on Saturday we fly to Guangzhou. She's doing really well and is a chunk a munk! I think she outweighs my nephew! The nine month clothes I bought are barely fitting but we are managing I guess I'll have to go shopping ! We are going to a W@lmart tomorrow. She's not loving the new formula - we couldn't get the formula she had been on - but she's eating a good amount of solids so we're doing well... More tomorrow and hopefully some more pics!

Got Her!

She's here... She's very cute and happy she quickly gave Paxton her first smile......
She does have a cold and we were told she was on IV antibiotics last week, poor baby, here are a few photos....more tomorrow...

Getting Gracyn

Tomorrow is Gotcha Day. It's 8pm on Sunday Feb. 22nd so in less than 20 hours we should have our little girl in our arms. We are supposed to receive the babies at 3pm tomorrow! Until then.......

Cool

It worked...
Ok where was I - Right we got to open Hong Kong Disney - how cool is that!
After enjoying the park for the day, we checked into our new hotel in Hong Kong where the rest of our group is also staying. They all took a tour on Saturday - sorry no pictures of that because we went back to Disney for more of the Mouse. This morning we flew to Changsha. There are 11 families in our group. I'd love to say the kids are still doing as amazingly well as they did on the 16 hour airplane ride, but I'd be lying. We're all still struggling with the time change and hoping for a better day tomorrow! More on that in a minute.
