Last day in Shenyang...

Well their last evening in Shenyang and guess what is happening with the weather...SNOW is supposed to fall again in Shenyang..let's hope he gets out on his plane before it starts to fall. The flight to Beijing is only 1 hour and 40 miinutes so hopefully by lunchtime tomorrow(China time) they will be in Beijing and on their way to the XiYuan hotel.

As you can see in the picture in downtown Shenyang there is lots of snow. Appears that the sidewalks are cleared pretty good and I guess it is not that cold as people are not wearing hats and mitts.

James said if the airport is closed he won't be taking the train from hell again. LOL

Presley spent a few hours in the room with James in the afternoon as they were packing to get ready to move onto the week in Beijing. I just noticed in the pixture that she is coloring with her left hand. I never asked James about that as I just received the pics. I will have to ask as she would be our first leftie in the family other than my niece Lia.

Hmmm I see the coloring was more fun on her face than on the coloring book. James says she has such a great charachter and she is so much fun!

She gets herself into a lot of trouble and her latest thing is she likes to go the bathroom every 5 minutes. I think she like flushing the toilet. Ahhh no more pit toilets for our little one. Actually James said it is getting very old that they have to run to the washroom every 5 minutes so she can check out the toilet in every place they visit.

Sounds just like her sister Jaden when she came home.

We packed an inflatable beach ball and she has been playing with it. When James meets up with Brian and Noah..Noah is 3 years old as well..I am sure Presley and him will be playing ball a lot. It will be nice for James to have some company and Presley to have a little playmate as well.

After a fun filled morning a little girl needs to take a nap. James says she falls asleep without notice. One minute she is talking away and the next she is sound asleep. When I was on the phone with him this morning he said she got up into the bed..put her fingers in her mouth, she motioned him to tuck her into bed and she fell asleep within seconds. A lot going on everyday for a little one. She is a real trooper and is doing extremely well. Much better than we had hoped for. I thought being in a foster family the greiving would or could have been very difficult.

Sleep tight my little princess..you are soon one step closer to your Mama and your sisters and brothers. She looks at the photo album many times during the day and sits with Daddy and tells him who everyone is. I can't wait for them to all meet one another next Friday.

Hugs,
