BABY UPDATE


Doesn't Jason look like he's having fun in this picture, must be the baby medicine he took .
It is now Wednesday Nov 23 @ 8pm. We have had our baby since Sunday Nov 20 @ 930pm which was just after landing from our flight from Beijing to Guiyang. What a trip it is to be parents. We got lucky, Ashley sleeps an average of 10-12 hrs, we get up at 7am and eat breakfast. Ashley has Jason's appetite she eats like a horse and doesn't gain any weight. Ashley naps at 10am and 2pm, she loves to get baths and is very attached to us. We are here in Guiyang until Sunday Nov 27 then we will be flying to Guangzhou to visit the US Consulate to finalize our paperwork and do our swearing in. After we visit the US Consulate. Ashley will be an official US Citizen. Hopefully by now some of you have received an email with the pictures, I am posting a picture with this update.

Here is an updated list of the couples traveling with us and their babies names.

Today we went to the Jiaixou Tower (an island Tower where the Emporer lived while during the Ming Dynasty the Tower celebrated its 400th anniversary in 1998). Now there is a school on the island where they teach Chinese & English.
