Pictures






These are some random pictures I have taken. One of them is the famous red couch picture. The red couch picture is a tradition for adoptive families who stay at the White Swan Hotel. This picture was destined to be a disaster from the beginning...first, it was scheduled for 3:00 p.m....nap time for all the babies. Then we had 13 babies to attempt to get to cooperate. You can tell from the picture it didn't go well (but I have to admit it was funny to see it). Hannah is the baby next to the baby that fell over. As soon as this baby fell over and started crying, Hannah started crying. I captured the whole event on video, so it will be good for many laughs in the future.

The picture of Hannah with the headphones is her talking to Tara on the telephone. We put the headphones on her and she listens to Alex and Tara talk to her. As you can see from the picture they can make her smile just by talking to her. I know she is going to love her big brother and big sister.

The picture of the little boy is our friends' son...Ben. They live in Naples and we got to come to China at the exact same time to get our babies. Their son is from a different province, so we didn't see them the first week, but we met them once we got to Guangzhou. Ben is a cute little boy and he is full of energy! He is almost 3 years old. He also has a big sister, Mary, who is adopted from China. We are looking forward to seeing them again in Naples.

The last picture is Hannah chilling in the high chair. Sitting back, kicking up her feet after a big meal.
