Guangzhou

We have made it to the last stop before coming home.  Because of the Moon Festival, things are closed down for the next two days.  Just hanging out and trying to keep FuXing busy.  He wrote things on his translator that said, "nothing to think about" and another funny one.  I finally caught on, and typed in "bored" and he said, "YES!"

He did great on the plane ride yesterday.  He was a little anxious when we started landing and actually let me cuddle him for quite a while.  We took video of us boarding the plane, taking off and when we landed.  Such a huge "first" for him.  Only three more flights until we land in Springfield.

He is 100% boy, and loves being silly and having fun.  Kevin is getting worn out :)  He loves to play army and is always shooting something and throwing  bombs.  They are now shooting from behind the pillows at each other :)

He is excited to see his Linda Nai Nai.  He asked about 10 times yesterday about the timing of it, but he does know that it is in 5 more days when she arrives for a short visit before heading to Jiaozuo.

Can't believe how much we already love him.  We are able to communicate most things, but the hard things have not come out yet.  Maybe best until we are home and can be in a normal setting (for us anyway). 

We have the option of going on several tours here, which we have not done previously on our trips because we were here for a short time and last year Gavin had the chicken pox ;)


Hoping the time here goes faster than it seems it will...we are excited to get home and see the rest of our kiddos.  I know Anna and Grant are doing a great job, but I'm sure they are ready for us to come home, too!
