Hello Everyone,

We just packed our bags and we are off to our final stop of the trip, Guangzhou. This is where the American Consulate is and we do all of the paperwork for the American Government. We will be there for five days (American Govt. paperwork taking five days, hard to believe)

Zoe is doing just great. Our favorite thing is getting her out of her crib in the morning when she wakes up. She is always so happy in the morning that we get the biggest smile! We have to take turns getting her out of her crib because it is so much fun. I also have to tell Tom that we actually have to let her wake up on her own (we both can’t wait until she wakes up)

My other favorite thing is to feed her. She is a champion eater. She can drink her bottle faster than any other baby (we are thinking of entering her in a contest). She gets so excited when she sees her bottle! Then, she stares into my eyes as she drinks it.

She still isn’t eating any of the solid foods like Rice and Noodles like her report said she would. However she loves Cheerios! She smiles when she sees the Cheerios come out. We have noticed that she drinks her bottles much slower after she has some Cheerios. We are really looking forward to introducing her to more solid foods when we get home.

We are getting a new camera when we get to the next stop so I promise there will be pictures (other families were having a hard time here with pictures as well) Stay tuned, I promise that we haven’t made this whole thing up (some people are asking me for proof that I actually got Zoe)

I may write more if I’m not too tired after our flight. It will be Zoe’s first time flying, so it might be exhausting for Mom and Dad.
