GOTCHA DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We FINALLY got our Mei Lin!!!!!

Ok, I'm soooo sorry that I didn't post last night....we were having technical dificulties and they didn't get fixed until late last, and after they were fixed, my mom had to get on and post on her blog. You might have already read her post...but I thought I should post here.

So Monday morning we left the hotel at 8:30 and it took about 25 - 30 minutes to get to the Adoption Bereau. We barely had enough time to get to put our stuff down and get our cameras out before they brought out Grace, (the other families baby that's traveling with us) and Mei Lin!! It was so exciting!

Mei Lin is so cute, sweet, and pretty!
She loves her daddy! She is a huge daddy's girl!! Yesterday dad had to do someting so she went over by mom, and she started making noises, and started whining and reached over for daddy!! She really wants nothing to do with her mommy!! Everytime she goes over to mom she starts squirming and trying to get her way out of her lap. She loves Miyah though!! Miyah got the first smile out of Mei Lin! She always makes her smile and laugh. Now me, I don't think she really cares about me.....she doesn't care if I hold her, but when dad is around she doesn't want to sit by anyone but him!! It's really quite funny!

Yesterday we had a looooong day!! From 8:30 to about 6:30 we were out of the hotel. We went back at lunch for about 15 minutes, and that was it. At 9 o'clock we met the babies and we had to spend 2 hours with them and then my parents did paperwork. Then we had lunch at a reseraunt that was really good. (surprisingly) Then we went to get Mei Lin's photos for her passport and applighed for it.

We went to a store called Carefour. We bought lots of baby stuff and we got food for in the hotel. The store was really interesting!

After we got home to the hotel we ate dinner and cleaned up. We had some problems with the internet then. Finally we got it working and my mom right away got on the computer. She was on it forever...so I went to bed. That's why I didn't post anything last night. Sorry!!

Today we were going to go to the zoo...but I really didn't want to go...zoo's are just too boring for me. I mean, you see one animal, you've seen them all! Intead though mom didn't want to go because she just wanted to shop and stuff. We haven't been able to go shopping this whole time we've been in China. Well, we did in Beijing, but just for a little bit because we were in a hurry to get on with our tour. So it'll be nice to relax for a little bit. I think every other day that we're here in Kunming we have something planned, so it should be nice to just do nothing but shop and stuff!

Well I have to get ready. We're going to go eat breakfast in about 30 min. So, I'll post tonight!! (hopefully!)

Oh, there are some photos that I posted (a slideshow) below this post if you want to check them out.

Till later,

China Girl
