Early morning tomorrow
Today we didn't do too much again. Olivia was very fussy today, and she cried for about an hour straight one time. She really enjoyed watching an Elmo's World dvd, and she'd just laugh and laugh and try to push buttons on the laptop.
We got Olivia's Chinese passport and our red book, which is another official adoption document. While we were in the department store across the street, several people gathered around us, as usual. Two men who looked to be in their late 50s were thrilled to see Olivia, and they tried asking us about her teeth by holding up four fingers and pointing to her mouth. Christine, ever the gracious mommy, got Olivia to open her mouth good and wide, and showed them that she's got two more teeth that will be coming in very soon. That made the men happy. Olivia sure does make a lot of people happy.
We just noticed that the outfit that Olivia was wearing when she came to us from the orphanage has a rooster on the front of it. She (and all of our babies) were born in the Year of the Rooster. It says "farm friends" on the shirt, so it's not a Year of the Rooster shirt, but hey, we thought it was cute.
Tomorrow morning, we need to muster down in the lobby at 6:00 a.m. to make our flight to Guangzhou at 8:10 a.m. When we get to Guangzhou, we go straight to our medical appointment, and we'll have one more stop before we check in to The White Swan. We're really looking forward to a change of scenery. There's been a lot of lightning tonight, and a breeze has picked up. Also, that nice scent of dog mess is in the air again, so a good heavy rain can't be too far away. I have some new pictures to put up, but I'll probably wait until tomorrow to do it.
Have a nice weekend, all!
Michael, Christine and Olivia
