Let me just begin my apologize for the lateness in this post. This adoption trip has been soo different that when we came to China the first time. We are moving A LOT. Jeff counted that we have been on a 5 different Chinese trains. Yes you heard that 5! The longest that we have been at a hotel is 2 nights. So to say were are sooo looking forward to staying put for bit doesn't begin to cover it. We had a blast at the Summer Palace and the Zoo. To actually see the Panda's in person and to watch Ryan's face light up for the first time was breathtaking. He walked through the entire zoo and palace humming/singing a tune. He is begging to smile a lot and his personality it wonderful. He is very very curious and busy.He still doesn't prefer me but will let me bath,feed and touch him. That's progress. Him and Emma are still doing wonderfully, No major issues there just the typical sibling stuff from time to time. They are wonderful together. Lets just hope it is the same at home.(lol) We will get Ry ans passport today and head off to the white swan. I will be so grateful to see some other Americans but most of all Lucy's. Yes Debby tuna is getting old =0) Write again when we arrive and let you know how Ryan's plane ride went .

I have been checking your blog so often for pictures that I feel like a stalker LOL. I am happy to hear things are going well, I know you must be exhausted from all of the travel. The WS and Lucy's will feel like heaven on earth :)
Ryan is adorable and I cannot wait to meet him.
