Wonderful Wenesday!!
Today started out to be a great Day!We all went down to breakfast. The kids were really tired because we had to wake them up two hours earlier than usual but we had our consolate appt. so we had to be on time! So all legal things are done and were ready to come home!!!! We have Aubrey's visa and passport. Everything went well at the consolate!Very quick! Our guide is great!We were there a bit early and we were first! WOOOHOOO all done with legal things. So afterwards we decided to go to a great shopping area we had briefly visited before. I wanted to get Aubrey a pair of tennis shoes that fit her feet. One of her little feet is hard to get certain shoes to fit on until it's corrected so I wanted to make sure we got a pair that fit right. She can wear her boots but there very hard to get on.She can't do it without baba's help. After we did some shopping there we decided to head to Shamian Island and do some walking and looking around there. There was also a nice playground for the kids. This is so terrible but we have tryed to avoid this playground because I didn't know how Aubrey would do climbing and was afraid she would fall!NEVER DOUBT THIS GIRL!! SHE IS AMAZING! She has learned to do everything the other children do and no she didnt fall.She did great!!I felt bad we hadn't taken here there since she did so well. She is still doing great!But she doesn't like NO to much! That has nothing to do with adoption.That's just a nine year old little girl! We had bought her several things today when she ask for something else I can't even remember now what it was but when I didn't buy it she got upset and acted mad at me. I stoped her got down to her level and I told her mama loves you but I can't buy everything you see. I gave her a kiss.She wiped it off Gene said when I turned my head but she was ok and didnt act mad at me anymore. She will learn it will just take some time. I guess when you don't have anything of your own and then you start getting you just get overwhelmed by it all. The only other issue we have had at all which hasn't really been a problem but I'm stopping it now is her telling me NO!! I just explained to her that it wasn't nice to tell me no when I ask her to do something and it did not make me feel happy. She really acted like she understood so i ask her to brush her teeth again and she said ok mama!She is doing great and I feel as long as we start from the beginning she'll continue to learn and flourish. She is very thoughful and kind.She's not a bit selfish. I had the guide expalin to her we would be going to Hong Kong tomorrow and home Friday!She seemed excited and was just amazed we all had our own bedrooms. She will love her room and her new bed.The super small bed she had at the foster home felt like you was laying on a concrete floor.NO JOKE!! We stopped by Subway to grab a quick lunch.Then took a taxi to the hotel!!BIG MISTAKE!!Putting Aubrey in a taxi after she has ate!It was like a volcano erupting!!!!HORRIBLE!! And it was so not funny but the look on Noah's face when Aubrey puked all over him was absolutely PRICELESS!! I had to laugh.If you know Noah he gags over anything!She soaked him and his new bubble gun.He was absolutely mortified!! But after we got them both out of the taxi he actually was laughing also. He said mama why did Aubrey throw up all over me.I was trying to go get towels to clean them both and while I was some wonderfully nice lady at the hotel came over and was cleaning Noah and Aubrey off with kleenex.She was so kind!I do terrible with puke so it's all I could do not to throw up myself. THANK GOD FOR THE HELP!!He so knew I really needed it.So we went to the room and both showered and changed.Now all is well again and there playing with there new bubble guns.BOY DO THEY SMELL BETTER!!Everyone PLEASE PRAY for Aubrey's travel home! That she will rest and not be sick the whole 16 hour flight.I'm a bit nervous.But God will take care of us.He always does!! But PRAY ,PRAY PRAY THE MORE PRAYERS THE BETTER!! Not sure what we will get into the rest of the evening.I think were having dinner with another great family we met at the Chicago Airport!There new parents!!So excited for them and there little Olivia! Blessings Everyone
