We talk about pee
We talk about poo
We talk about every
little thing they do
(with apologies to Toby Keith's I want to talk about me!)
But that pretty much sums up our days right now, we should probably have a scoreboard for who's child has done what! Miaya passed her final milestone of the "necessities", it was a memorable one - and it was quickly hustled out of the hotel room. The topic of conversation when our group meets for meals or in the hallway, etc usually involves the bodily functions of our children.
Today was a light one, a late start, then a trip to WalMart here in Nanning. This Supercenter is a lot smaller than one in the States, and the selection of many things is much more limited. It is located on the second and third floors of a building near downtown. The shopping carts steer on all four wheels, and brake automatically when you ride the conveyor between floors. We were able to find several things we wanted, although it was a bit of a treasure hunt interpreting/guessing at the labels on some packages. We had lunch at a KFC downtown before heading back to the hotel and a free afternoon,mostly spent resting, a heavy rainstorm postponed till tomorrow a visit to the Peoples Park a few minutes from our hotel, a beautiful park where people gather for all kinds of activities.
Miaya is coming out more all the time, she recognizes both of us, and wants us both near whenever she has her nap. I did not know it was possible to feel so much love for someone so fast.

The People's Park is a must visit...we spent a lot of time there last November when we adopted our DD Natalie. Its beautiful and a really short walk from the Majestic.
You seem to notice all the same things we noticed on our "gotcha" trips to China. It's really fun for me to see through your eyes as it reminds me of what we saw through our own eyes when we brought our girls home. Thanks for the reminder.
It sounds as though you're settling in pretty well as a family. Good for you!
Cheers!
