China

China was great!!! Aside from getting Maizie I don't know what my favorite part was. The Great Wall, Forbidden City, Summer Palace, Xi'an, Terracotta Warriors, Wild Goose Pagoda, Guangzhou. The worst part was getting sick while we were in Guangzhou. I mean really sick. We all had the flu and were out for a few days. Tracy still has a bad cough and Maizie has an ear infection and some congestion but other then that she is doing so well. We really are so lucky. She is such an easy girl. On the way home she slept most of the 13 hour plane ride. The plane from Newark to Boston was another story. She was wide awake and wanted to hit the guy in front of us on the head. We arrived in Boston at about 10:30pm. I thought there is no way she is going to sleep tonight but she went to bed at around 1am and slept until i had to wake her up (we had a doctor appointment) at 10 the next morning! Her favorite place to sit is in my lap. When she sees me sitting on the floor she will come over and scoot her little butt into my lap. She isn't walking unassisted yet but she will pull herself up and walk holding on to something. She really is just so so cute. She is still a little peanut and weights in at a whopping 18 pounds. Ok so I know you only came here to see the pictures so here you go. I will post pictures of China this weekend.

This is one of the first smiles we saw.

Playing with Daddy on the bed.

Bath time! Maizie LOVES the water. Bath time is one of her favorite times. She loves splashing.

At Starbucks in Guangzhou. Such a little lady.

Hanging out with Daddy.

At home with her new favorite toy. Thanks Grandma!

Maizie really is such an easy child. She rarely gets fussy. The most I have heard her cry was when she had blood drawn and that was only for about 5 minutes while they were getting blood. As soon as it was over she stopped crying. She loves to just sit and play with us. We really are so lucky.
