Red Couch Photo
This morning we had our red couch photos. Went pretty well considering our big group. We have our oath this afternoon, so Lily is down for a nap now.
Yesterday we took Lily to the clinic here in the hotel. She has ear infections and a sore throat, cough, & cold. We brought an antiboitic with us, so we have her taking that along with something they gave us for a cough and ear drops. Hopefully she will start feeling better soon. She is such a good girl even though she is not feeling quite herself. Who knows how long she has had the ear infection. Not sure how often they are checked in foster home.
We went to a great French restaurant last night. It was the best food since we have been here.
We will be home soon. We can't wait. Here are some photos from this morning.

Visa Appointment Day
Today was our visa appointment day. We did not have to go...our reps went for us and then called when they were done to say everything was okay. Nothing else on the agenda for today.
Yesterday we went to the zoo. It was VERY hot outside. We were all drenched by the time we got back to the bus. Meishaung met us there and then rode back on the bus with us to the hotel. We went and ate lunch together and then I put Lily down for a nap and Dawn and I went shopping with Meishaung. It was nice to catch up with her. She bought gifts for the kids. She is a sweet girl. I can't believe she is getting ready to turn 21 in August.
3 more days....I am sure the time will fly by and we will be home. I am really dreading the flight home. Lily likes to be on the go, so not sure how she is going to sit for so long with our crying and being really agitated.
Tomorrow we have our traditonal "Red Couch Photo". That is were the travel group gets together and gets a photo of all the adopted kids together in there traditional chinese clothing and takes a picture. Should be interesting to get a photo of 15 children under the age of 2 1/2 to sit together nicely for a picture. It will probably be chaous. THen in the afternoon we will go to the US consulate to take our oath. Then we are offially DONE!!!
Friday we will get Lily's visa in the afternoon and then we leave on Saturday morning.
