We're Still Here

Well, I think Teddy is starting to feel like part of the family now. Anna is bossing him around, so I think he knows his place :)! She took her favorite book from him and cried when Dad said to give it back. He kept giving her books to make her stop crying! He is also starting to be a little naughty, so he is having to learn some discipline. It is hard when you can't speak each other's language, but he does understand a lot. No excuses :) OH! and he is hardly wetting his pants anymore!!! I guess it was just the adjustment. We are all very tired of getting up at 4:00 AM, thanks to Anna. So, we are all ready for bed by 8:00 PM. We watch the clock until breakfast at 6:30 in the morning! We have Wal-mart pics, but Chris is the funny one, so we'll save those for tomorrow. Thanks for all of the comments. Jadelin and Rebecca, Samuel loves you very much, too! We love hearing from all of you! Kristina

It looks like Teddy is bonding well! The hotel you are staying at looks like the lobby area of the hotel we were at in Nanchang together. Looks like a nice place to stay. Glad to see the two young ones bonding with not much jealosy yet. Be safe and enjoy the rest of the trip. I don't envy having to eat at Pizza Hut or KFC everyday! (:
