Now We're Movie Stars!

Last night we managed to get some full belly laughs  out of his little one, she has the cutest dimples. She laughed full out when a balloon popped ...well it went pfft!  She went to bed much easier than I anticipated. We sat in front of the big window and watched the cars and busses and I hummed some songs and after awhile I heard her snores. It took two tries to get her to bed. She didn't want to sleep with me. This morning after breakfast... more surprises there, she can use a spoon very well to shovel her mixture of congee and noodles. the spoons they use here are serving spoons to us, but she knew just how to get the food in there and we only had a napkin for a bib! She ate a whole hard boiled egg, noodles, congee, and of course water melon and hami-gua. Then we were off to the Civil Affairs office, she fell asleep on the way must have been the full belly and the fact that her GI system is staying on schedule- I was informed that she has a BM after breakfast- she was right on time! Guess who has potty training on her mind?
Anyway we walked into the same office where we met her on Monday, as we walked in there were a bunch of people with cameras in there and  they told our guid to take us out to the elevator again and have us walk in again. They are filming something for the CCCWA. We were to come in and have a seat and 'relax' and act like we would normally with 2 movie cameras aimed at us!  Well Miss QuanQuan rose to the occasion, feeding mama bits of cracker, laughing and acting generally very sweet. The lady that brought her to us yesterday was there and Shekinah didn't even give her a second glance. Mrs. Wei tried to pick her up and she wanted nothing to do with her. Sort of insulted the lady. Anyway, somewhere out there, there is a bit of film   -half hours worth of our adoption registration proceedings...another family was adopting a little boy today too, but we didn't get to talk.

Now it is time for a nap for little 'un  Oh, and the pic of her laughing was just taken a minute ago!  Thanks again for all your prayers.
