Lia is doing very well. She is fun to be around. She's babbling and teething more and more. She is a very sweet and content baby. Her newest milestone is that she is eating with a spoon. Ice cream didn't work, but mango pudding did. She loves it! (By the way, the water bottle has become her favorite toy).
On Sunday we went to a Chinese folk art museum. The architecture was beautiful! Lia did great on the bus ride and walking around.
Today (Tuesday) we had our USA consulate appointment. Everything went well. In the afternoon we visited Shamian Island. There was a beautiful park, beautiful old buildings and lots of shopping. This Island is also where the "White Swan Hotel" is located. We had a cup of Jasmine green tea and dessert in the White Swan, over looking the Pearl River. Of course we had to take the classic red sofa photo of Lia. In the evening, we went out for dinner and ended up at 1001 Nights Restaurant (Arabic food) with another couple from our group.
Tomorrow we go to the US Consulate for the Oath Ceremony, no cameras allowed! (pray that Amy won't get me in any trouble)
Great pictures!

ReplyDeleteHi Amy! Finally figured out how to log in and comment.
ReplyDeleteLia looks beautiful, and you both look incredibly happy and relieved that the long wait is finally over.
I found the box from the engraved picture that we had done of the girls at a shop near the White Swan on Annie's trip in 2003, but the card with the store name is missing. Jennifer's Place, maybe?
See you home soon!
Steve
