On December 3rd, 2007 our son, Michael, was placed in our arms. He was 14 months old and we were in Changsha, China. Three years and three days later, his sister, Kailey, joined our growing family in Guangzhou, China. Thanks to all of you that follow our journey.

We have the two greatest kids ever!


Enjoying the family time here on the Island. No work, little to do except be together. We play, eat, shop and sleep - together. Today we have no official business to attend to as we've already done the medical check. We met one of the families in our group. They are getting a six year old. Our first official group activity is tomorrow. We will be going to a temple and the pearl market. It'll be nice to get off of the island.













Had lunch at the Cow and Bridge because Ike likes thier lunch prices. (He likes to save us money.) Both kids feel asleep. Kailey feel asleep with her eyes open, which caused me to shove a spoon full of rice in the mouth of a sleeping child. Then I got the priviledge if digging it out with my fingers.












Michael has regressed some, as we were told he would. He is now willing to ride in a stroller and wants a highchair. Both are fine with me. We've been having stoller races, which both kids love. Most of the shops have stroller ramps and Kailey will yell happily going down them. Yesterday we were racing, when suddenly our friend from the plane came from behind and passed us both - very nice family. They are on our flights home, too.





Fun at the playground. They had a great time and mostly stuck together. Another kid gave Kailey a little push off the end of the slide and Michael yelled at him.

When Michael wanted to see saw and Kailey didn't, I suggested that Michael see saw with another girl. He replied that he only wanted to with Kailey.










Michael taught Kailey how to smile at the camera with a perfect smile














Breakfast at the White Swan (again) this morning
