Gotcha Day for AnnaBelle


Yesterday we flew from Beijing to Zhengzhou as a group. Love our group. Nice
families each one. Met a couple at baggage claim adopting from here. They live in
Nebraska. We are so outnumbered. The locals whisper to each other about us because
Katherine and I are blonde. Flight instructions were in Mandarin. :) short flight
but bumpy.
Today we met in lobby to load the bus for Civic affairs offc. To get our kids! There
were families from other agencies there. A family from Spain I met. AnnaBelle came
late. The Nanny she had, she had a long time. AnnaBelle was dressed wearing pjs mom
got her. She had three layers on and was sweaty. She is beautiful and so tiny. She
ate a lot when we got to hotel. She has cried a lot and is waking crying.love to
all. Pictures to follow! We got a picture scrapbook of her! XOXO
Strange things about China
1.they don't sell DEO. Period.
2. They serve noodles and sticky rice for breakfast. Always. 
3. They sell pork sausage in mini wiener size that taste like nothing, says Milton. 
4. I had to buy a mini round brush because I or got mine. It's a size for a
baby. Only option.
5. The traffic is insane..you just honk when someone is in your way or to alert them
of you. This means bicycles/pinkish, pediatricians have to fun for themselves.
Traffic is bad!

Please pray for AnnaBelles transition and her health. She has a wet cough. We will
see what it does overnight.
