Sunday Morning

It's 6:30 here and everyone except Zeke and I are still asleep!! We all got a good night's sleep--the most uninterrupted sleep any of us have gotten. We're all sharing one room now so it's a little more difficult if one person wakes up we all wake up(i.e. Lillie Mei) but she did great last night. We decided to go with one room b/c there were no adjoining rooms and we didn't want the boys to be separated from us. The beds are tiny. I slept with Harrisons knees in my back all night.


Lillie Mei loved her bath last night. I think she's going to be a swimmer. She's also started imitating the cow sound. We brought some markers shaped like animals (thanks Donna). When you put the lid on them they make the animal sound. When we do the cow she makes this grunting sound back--too cute. I'll try to get a video of it for you. She has changed so much. She already calls the boys gu gu--the Chinese word for big brother. They love it. She babbles da da da da. She says
"ama" when she wants me to pick her up--it works everytime. Before we had to really work to get her to smile or laugh now it comes much more easily. What a blessing she is! We're so thankful God lead us to her so quickly.


Today we're visiting a park and I'm not sure what else. The boys are dying to go swimming. It's supposed to be around 80 degrees here so we might swim in the outdoor pool.

Please pray for Zeke. He has a strange rash on his legs--hoping we can clear it up with the pharmacy I brought with us. The boys also fought a lot yesterday. They're tired of being together. It's safe enough here that one of us take one shopping or walking around while the other goes somewhere else. Hopefully that will help but we could use prayers for that also. Everyone is just ready to come home!

Love you all!
