Full day of travel

Good evening I mean morning to you!

We just arrived at our hotel in Guangzhou and man is it awesome!!! We are in the executive suite which is nicer then anywhere I've ever stayed. Tall ceilings, beautifully decorated and right in the middle of nothing! We have not had a chance to look around since we got in so late.

We knew our plane was going to be delayed, but no one knew exactly how long it was going to be, so we headed to the airport to wait. We only had to wait for 1 1/2 hours for the "fog" aka pollution to clear up.

It was then up in the air for Kate's first plane ride. She was awesome, not one single cry. Now the flight was only an hour, but she still was awesome. Kate got the most improved baby of the day award. She is night and day from a couple of days ago. She smiles and laughs all the time now. She even cried for Brian when he left the room. Great improvement!

At the new hotel the carpet is clean and new so we are letting her crawl around, but it won't be long till she is walking. She loves to hold your fingers and walk the hallways.

Love you all

What's just amazing to me is the difference in the pictures. Look at the first sets...Kate looks a little suspicious and a little reserved.

Look at today's. She's a happy, outgoing, secure, and well-loved kid.

Great job you guys!

I love the fact that I can talk to you. I was afraid that I missed my opportunity today, so glad I was at the store at the right time. Kate gets cuter, happier and more content looking everyday! It is obvious that she is happy with her new family. Wait until she meets the rest of us!!
