Day 2

Today started off pretty good. Emma woke once during the night for a bottle. She has a hard time falling asleep she cries for a bit. I think she is missing her nanny. They must of had some kind of trick to put her to sleep. They told us to give her a blanket but that does not work for us. After a bit she finally fell asleep and slept till 7. She woke up cring but stopped as soon as we picked her up and put her on the bed. We got her laughing in no time. We skyped for a bit with Grandmom, grandpop, Babchi, Sally and Ben. She laughed and talked for them. After a bit she got fussy so we took her down to breakfast. She ate Congee and steamed egg and had some grape juice. She no a big eater but she did like everything we gave her. We then meet our guide Echo and did some sightseeing around Nanchung. We went to a Pavillion. It is suppose to big the biggest one in China. It was pretty neat. Nothing much on the inside but the gardens around it were beautiful. Emma just loved seeing all the flowers and trees. Every time we walked but a tree she would belly laugh like you wanted believe. We had a nice visit there. They had a show with people singing and playing instruments. She watched very intently. We then went shopping for some porcelain. Nanchung is known for their porcelain. We got some really great things and a present for Emma when she is older. I said for her wedding Ryan said she will never be getting married, so it will be for sometime in her adult hood, when daddy let her go, which may be never. We then headed back to the hotel for a meeting with an artist who made a scroll for Emma made of silk. It has her american name and chinese along with her birthday and where she was born. It was really neat to watch the lady make it. Emma then went down for a nap. She woke up and we have been playing. She is really tired today, I think she has a tooth coming in. She feels little warm no temperature and she is drooling a lot today. We were gonna go swimming but might wait until tomorrow. We are headed off to the zoo tomorrow to see the panda bear! We finally saw the sun today for a little bit. The weather is hot but not unbearable. Thanks again for all the comments! We love reading them.

  1. We only saw the sky once in three weeks in China. It rained heavily one night and blew the smog away, but a few hours later it was covering everything again.

    Sorry to hear that your little one is having trouble sleeping. I'm sure it's hard on all of you, but if she never had any trouble you'd have to wonder, right? This proves that she can love and miss those that care for her-hold onto that thought when you're walking the floor!
