Pictures from the 18th!

She's hilarious... I set the blanket on the floor with her doll and wanted her to come sit on it... well, she laid down. and held her dolly! She loves that baby. She didn't get her doll back that i sent her at the orphanage, so i am SOOOO glad i went ahead and bought these to bring!
Spending time with daddy... she isn't too sure about her... he doesn't mind... he loves her anyways!

Our view from the hotel window. The view from the bathroom was over the street and a construction site... that worked all night long... excavating and hammer drilling! haha! How appropriate!

This building was next to our hotel too... our room was 906 so on the ninth floor... you can see how tall this building was!!!

On the drive to our appointments. Some cool buildings with the sunrise in the background... It was foggy today, accentuated by the smog from 12 million people!



A quick shot of something we received at the first appointment... not really sure what it was. :)

Sign at the notary... so i would remember at least what office it was!

Back in the room... with wet pants... although that is how she normally stands! ha!

Definitely disgusted...

All clean and cute and relaxing...



Waiting for mommy to be ready to go eat... She loves this photo book.

Walking to lunch...


Waiting for the elevator...

In her chair... no high chairs here... so we put her against the wall so she couldn't fall off. She is sometimes happy and most of the time stoic right now... but for some reason this time when i got the camera out, she got all pose-y! I thought it was hilarious! and so cute! Her lip looks terrible i know... but she is constantly licking it, so it stays wet a lot... I hope it goes away soon. She looked at her photo book while we waited... then i say her trying to figure out how to get the pictures out... i told her no... she thought it was funny... (this is where i know she is almost 2) a few minutes later i look and she has the family picture out of there and she is grinning like the cat that got the canary!!! I couldn't believe it... like haha mama... i did it anyways! I took it away, said no sternly and put a unhappy face on me... Jerry did the same. She could tell she was in trouble and the naughty smile disappeared quickly. It was good. I put the photos in my bag for a little while. after a little bit i brought it back out and she didn't try to take it apart again. YAY!!! she's learning...

After her nap... ready to go to the acrobat show. You can tell i had to get her up before she was ready. She was pretty low key the rest of the evening... She scratched her nose... must be with her fingernail or something! good grief!

Jerry has been taking some photos with his camera on his phone, too, so sometime i will get those... i think he has some from the show tonight.

Next photos... the Great Wall!!! yay!!!
