After an amazing and exhausting Saturday touring Tian'anmen Square, The Forbidden City, and The Great Wall (blog entry coming soon), we got up on Sunday and flew to Nanchang. Liam was pretty much wiped out by the time we got to the hotel, so he stayed with Britt and Aunt Suzi while Dianne and I went to meet Ellie. And because I know you're really not checking out this blog for my brilliant prose, no more waiting -- here she is!
She is such a sweetie! Poor baby cried and cried at first, like all of the others, but before long she had latched on tight to me and I was able to sing her to sleep. A real Daddy's girl, huh? :) She slept all the way back to the hotel, and for quite a while after. Had to get her up for a diaper change and some dinner, and some playtime with big sister Britt, but she's slept through since then.
More appointments this morning, but nothing on the schedule for this afternoon other than naptime, and maybe another blog entry. Tune in again . . .

We are so happy for you guys! She is absolutely beautiful. We can't wait to spoil her rotten!
Liam, happy late birthday! We have much to celebrate when you come home...that is, once everyone has rested and acclimated.
Be safe and know that we love you all. You are in our thoughts every second.
Just wanted you to know that John's sister Paige's referral came through today! The baby's name is Bo Nien and she is a little over 7 months old. She was found on 1/23/07 and abandoned on 1/22/07, which they think is when she was born. She was left with a birth note. They will be getting the referral photos of her tomorrow (Wednesday).
