Hello today was our first full day in Guanghou and it rained off and on all day so really didnt get out much. Our guide wanted to do our medical visit and visa photos today so we were up early to get started. Mia doesnt like to be touched by strangers so she had a rought morning, she was the only baby who cried for the visa photo what should have taken 5min took almost 30min. She gives the meanest looks to people when they get to close then she looks up at us and smiles she something special. As you can see all that crying wore her out she took a really good nap. Then we also filled out our visa papers so our guide will take them Tuesday to the U.S. Consulate for us and make sure everything alright so we can get Mia's visa and head home. The trip is starting to get alittle long and we are missing our family at home.


We bought a stroller today for 50bucks and Mia loves it everytime we stop she gets mad she wont even sit in a high chair to eat she stays in the stroller.


What a smile!!!!
Mia is feeling better but now Michael and I have colds, I think its the same as she had. We started our antibiotic today Mom I gave Michael the three day stuff from the black market and I took the real stuff from my doctor so we will see if it works faster. Did I mention its Shannons birthday and she is the best sister ever and I can only hope to parent my children as well as she does in fact she is in the process of writing a book on parenting is called "Front Porch".
Abby Im so sorry to hear about Hannah ear I hope she is feeling better.
Hopefully the rain will let up and we can get out of the hotel room it seems to get smaller as the days go by. Thanks for the comments it fun to read them and we appreciate your prayers alot they must be working Micheal and I are still speaking.(ha ha) Cant wait to see everyone when we get home and see how Mia enjoys her new family. Good Night...

Sherry,
mom needs to know where your sprinkler system is because your plants are welting and she's not carrying the hose all over. She said nobody knows anything around here! No rain in site so your plants will die email dad and tell him or call mom. She'd love to hear from you anyway.

Love, Shannon
