LOTS TO TALK ABOUT!!!

Well first and foremost, we are posting a few pics of our sweet Molly. She has been so fantastic on this trip and such a wonderful big sister to Maggie and so we wanted to post some photos of Molly enjoying herself. She is sending a big hello to all of her friends at Miss Helen's and misses school very much. Hello, Miss Pam and Miss Christi, Molly sends a big hug to both of you.

Yesterday, we had to do some paperwork and we went to Shamian Island and did some shopping. Last night, we took a dinner cruise along the pearl river which was really nice. Today Paul and Molly went to the zoo and had lots of fun inspite of the heat. Unfortunately, I had to stay home with our sick little girl, Maggie. She awakened this morning with a fever and she was not her normal smiley self. We tried all day to get her fever under control and nothing was working. By late afternoon, her fever was pretty high and we decided to take her to the doctor.

One of the families in our group had gotten the name of an American doctor off another adoption website so we called him and he could see Maggie. Well, let me tell you that our little peanut is a fighter - she was so so so mad at that doctor and was not going to give in. After some tests, it was decided that she had an inner ear infection so we have started her on antibiotics.

She was much better tonight and is currently curled up sleeping with her blanket. Did I say how IN LOVE we are with this sweet little precious gift? Tomorrow, poor Molly has to get an immigration physical, boy is she going to be happy about that considering her day today and then more shopping. We are counting down the days until we start our journey home - 6 days to go and 7 until we arrive in Tulsa.

We are trying to upload a video of Maggie, walking, so once we get it done, we will upload it. Stay tuned. Love, Steph.
