Ethnic Park - Bed and Bath time






It is Thursday afternoon here in Nanning and we have already had a full day. For those of you who know Julie and how she normally functions in the morning you may be surprised to hear that she was up and dressed before 6:00am. That is exciting for me, but I am not sure if it will continue when we get home or not. For some reason even after being here for a week our bodies still have a difficult time adjusting. It seems like we sleep really well until about midnight and then it is restless sleep from then on. Either way it is a good way to get started early. When Hannah woke up this morning she just sat up and looked for us but without crying. It seems like she is getting more used to us each day. She is starting to put her arms out to show us when she wants to go to one or the other of us, and seems to be more playful and free to laugh more often. She is however still having some problems with her stomach. If you could be still praying for that we would appreciate it. Other that that she is a very pleasant and sweet little girl who likes to laugh out loud - Just like her sister. We had the pleasure of talking to Noah and Abbey on the phone today, it was a real joy to us to hear their voice and to know that they are having a great time with their grandparents. Hannah also enjoyed hearing their voices. Please be praying for Kaylee and Lydia - two of the little girls that were also adopted from Hannah's orphanage as they have been started on Antibiotics for Bronchitis. This morning we went to a local Museum and Ethnic park to learn about the minority people of China. It was really interesting to learn about their cultures and to see some of the ancient artifacts that have been collected. It was a very beautiful park , we had the opportunity to see several couples getting their wedding photos in the park. Tonight we are having a group dinner at 6:00 PM and then tomorrow we will be finishing up some paperwork and flying to Guangzhou in the evening. I just want to end by seeing if anyone noticed Hannah is already suporting her hometown team!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hannah Says Go Bucks. We may not being able to post tomorrow as we will be packing up and flying at around 6:00 tommorrow. We will post as soon as we are able to. Thanks for all of the prayers and encouragement through the emails. We miss and Love you all. May God Bless You.
