You can't imagine how excited we are to get home. The last few days have been filled with fun and new things every day. Bing Bing is starting to say words, the only two that we are sure about has been "momma" & "dada", although it has only been a few times. She is also starting to walk while holding one of my hands. She used to hate to take baths, but since we went swimming the last two days she now enjoys a nice bath. She loves to take an afternoon siesta, so do I. Yesterday was official White Swan photo day as you can see by the pictures. All of the kids looked adorable in their little Chinese outfits. Bing Bing had a little trouble with the shoes. She has feet that are like flippers, it was hard to find dragon shoes that would fit her. Speaking of shoes, we decided that "squeaky shoes" although very cute, would probably drive us crazy after a few hours. After the pictures, all of the mommy's went for drinks and I took Bing Bing and Gracie to the play room for about an hour. No one cried but I was somewhat thankful that we didnt get twins. Two is a handful. One of her favorite things to do is going to feed the Coy at the indoor pond(which we are not supposed to do, but its fun for both of us). This morning it was off to another Temple that had a few Monks, then to the Pearl Market. There a Pearls everywhere..even found a few laying on the floor. This afternoon we go to the US Consulate to get her visa, then a small party to celebrate our last night here. We need to pack everything up tonight and we should be leaving for the airport at about 5:00 am. We land in Ohio at 6:30 pm on Thursday. We can hardly wait for everyone to meet her. See you soon.

Kim and Sean,
I'm pretty sure Cha Bing is the absolute cutest thing I've ever seen! I just showed everyone in my office the pic of her in her pink dress sitting on the couch. You must be absolutely thrilled to have her! I'm so happy for you two, and I wish that I could be there with my dad to see her this weekend. Take care!

We have loved keeping up with your blog. I couldn't wait to check everyday to see if you had any new pictures posted. You have a beautiful daughter who is very lucky to have you for parents. One day she will truly know just how lucky. Have a safe trip home. Taylor and I are coming along with Kathy, Carol and Stella this weekend. We are very anxious to meet Cha Bing, especially Taylor, who also loved to look at the pictures of her new cousin. Take care.

We'll look forward to seeing you guys around the holidays.

if you guys can read this GET THE SQUEAKY SHOES !!!! one in every size !!! The squeakers can be removed from the back heel, as they are the same little piece of plastic found in a dogs toy. PLUS, where else can you find shoes SO cheap ! Wren is sad to have finally out grown all of her stash of squeaky shoes. I will send you a pair she outgrew before they were destroyed !!!
love,
amanda
