We survived Joli's medical appointment. Since she is over 2 she had to have her blood drawn which I was dreading in a big way. There were tears but the nurses were efficient and she recovered with a sucker in no time. This wing is for adoptive families only. CCAI stays full of families so it was also only our agency. Makes for a long morning, but we were happy to check it off our list. Tomorrow morning we have our US consulate appointment! Last step to bringing our Chinese American home...after her visa arrives we are free to head home!
We finished our day with a pizza party on the Pearl River Cruise. The grand finale is the 3rd tallest tower in the world. It's nice to get out with the other families. Good for morale...laughter is good medicine!
When Joli smiles her whole face lights up. She's the sweetest teeny girl!
Gunnar got roped into the entertainment. The clown really didn't give anyone a choice and demanded we take our child's pictures lol. Gunnar was happy to be included. Kai and Joli not so much!
Traveling with toddlers is just as taxing as it sounds. We are ready to be back together as a family of 7!!!! Miss our big girls more then words can express. But the journey is worth all the miles and lack of sleep. In just a small amount of time we've watched our little girl bloom. Slowly but surely. It is a wonder what love can do!
