Chinese Church, Lucy's, and SHOPPING......






Hey Everyone. Hannah slept pretty good last night. She had one hour of crying at about 10:00. We are thinking she is still having stomach issues, and her nose started running as well. The breakfast at this hotel is amazing! We have definately eaten very well here. Jason even ate squid or octopus the other night. I wouldn't touch it! We went to a chinese church service this morning. It was so neat to be singing Matt Redman's"The Heart of Worship"in China.During the week I have been thinking about all Hannah's first things, first plane ride, first french fries......, but it really special thinking it was her first church service. She was enjoying the music and eating her snacks. The pastor spoke in chinese and another lady interpreted. Next, we went to Lucy's bar, where an american menu was served. I ordered a hamburger, and Jason ordered chicken enchilatas. His meal was soooooo spicy hot, it set both our mouths on fire. Hannah napped at Lucy's. We then had a few hours to shop. The shops were very neat and we were able to get Hannah some tradtional outfits and squeaky shoes. You can try and offer a lower price and the store workers will go back and forth with you. It was very interesting. I let Jason do all that. We got some really great deals. We are back at the hotel now and Jason and Hannah are taking a walk. She really like being out of the room where she can see all the people. That little munchkin is showing some of her true colors now and she has quite the temper. We are also learning that she likes being in her crib at naptime better than us carrying her! She is crawling and scooting all over the hotel room floor now. She will take a few steps for us and we think she will be walking on her own soon. In one of the pictures, she is wearing a hat her Uncle Michael and Aunt MiMi gave her. We also wanted to wish Dad and Mom Pierce a Happy Anniversary. We are sorry we can't be there to celebrate with you, but are so thankful for your many years together! Thanks for the prayer everyone. Tomorrow we get to go on a river boat cruise. Hope Hannah likes it! We love you Noah and Abbey!
