Shopping Day

Well I don't have much to post today as we just shopped. I only took four photos today! Unbelievable!

We went to the the Pearl Market. What a place! It is 6 floors, pearl floor, clothing, shoe and purse floor, toy floor, electronic floor, Asian product floor, food court. You can bargain and haggle which is tons of fun. They chase you down the hall if you walk away. You can pretty much get everything for 50 to 70% below where the price started. I enjoy haggling! I like to see what I can get and I like walking away....they always agree on what you are willing to pay.

Tonight we went to the Acrobatic Show. WOW! First, though I have to say in Canada I would never think to take a 9 month old to a Show. But surprisingly the music and lights did grab her attention. She did great. I did have to stand at the end of the aisle for the last 10 minutes of the 90 minute show. Pretty good for 9 months!

We are getting very excited to come home. Only two more sleeps in China and we head home to start our life together as family in our home. We are excited to see everyone!!! and for you to meet our little girl. It is hard to believe our time in China is coming to an end. We will miss our travel group as we have all become very close. We have made some wonderful new friends.

Here is a photo of some of the moms and babies while we were in Nanchang. 7 Families were in Nanchang. There are 14 families total here in Beijing.


This is a photo from dinner last night. One of the other moms brought this chair which has certainly come in handy for her little girl as a lot of the restaurants have no high chairs. They were finished their dinner so passed it along to us. Well Mary Anne LOVED it. She loved being right at the table. It is so fun showing her all these new things!!!
