Consulate Appt. Tomorrow

Sorry for no post the last few days..we have been taking it easy and just having a great time with our little Lexi.  She is sooo funny, she is laughing so much these days and is just a joyful little creature.  When Lexi first came to us she really did not know how to eat anything solid.  We tried to give her Cheerios and she really did not know what to do with them.  Now she is eating them like a champ, and forget congee and rice cereal, as soon as she sees us eating our food she wants some of that.  Her palate does not seem to be giving her much trouble as far as eating and swallowing which is great for her.  She continue to get stronger each day, she is crawling now and can sit up very well. 
We have been taking more movies than photos for the last few days so I only have a couple to post..
Tomorrow is our consulate appt. and then just three more days to go!!!! We are so excited to be getting home to Alison.  We miss her so much, it has been such a relief to be able to talk to her twice a day with Skype.  She and Lexi are already bonding...Lexi smiles and laughs as soon as she sees Alison, it so much fun to watch.

  2. Wow! She is making so much progress in just a few days! That's a great sign! Love the purple dress on her. Just beautiful. Glad you are already seeing the girls interacting. That is amazing. Hope the rest of your trip goes just as smoothly! Sarah (another Xuzhou mom)

  4. We loved skyping with Allison when we were in China too- but still, the meeting at the airport- by far the BEST moment! I can't wait for you to have yours. Lexi is absolutely precious, and Aaron was the same way with food. Like- GIVE IT TO ME! :)
