Nap time!


Its been a long morning, we finished all of our paperwork and will get Payton's passport on Friday.We seen Payton's nannies and orphanage director at breakfast this morning and he would not even make eye contact with them. During the paperwork this morning the nannies tried to get Payton to let them hold him and he kept pushing them away. I am amazed at how quick he has bonded with Mark and I. We went to Walmat to pick up a few things and it was very different than our walmart. It has 3 stories with magnetic escelators so that the grocery cart won't move! Payton is down for his nap and it has been raining very hard all day. We will be going on a tour tomorrow around 11:00 to a monesary with our guide. She is great and fun to be with.

Nancy if you read this post, I gave the photo album to the director and the 2 nannies. They were very happy to see Adelie's sweet little face. They talked alot about it, but have no idea what they were saying! But seems so very pleased to have it.

Nothing like the face of a sleeping child! It is truly amazing that he has already become so attached to you. Although I am sure he feels in his little heart that you love him and want to take care of him....you also have all the animal crackers!!! Enjoy this special time and I can't wait for you to get home so the rest of us can love up on him! Mom is coming over today....I know she will cry when she sees all the beautiful pictures!

Thanks so much Peggy for passing along Adelie's pictures to the nannies. I enjoyed doing that for another family from Jinjiang when I was there. It sounds like things are going well for you all - I'm SO glad!! :-)

For others who are reading this, Adelie is our daughter from Payton's same orphanage. We brought Adelie home almost 6 months ago. Here is Adelie's blog: http://china.usbornefairies.com
You're welcome to see her travel journal there and pictures since she's been home.
