Today's our last day in Guangzhou. It's the day the baby pictures are taken on the red couch and we go to the U.S. Consulate for Talia's swearing in as a U.S. citizen. We shopped yesterday and saw the Chen family museum and the Folk Art Center. We had chops made for each of our girls, rubber stamps with their Chinese names. We also bought art for at home. Lydia got some much needed playground time again. Talia played in the baby room at the hotel and had her first bath without tears, thanks to the stacking cups and the fact that only her toes were actally in the water, as she was on mama's lap. We ate at a Thai restaurant last night, and Lydia wanted to show the orchids we put in her hair, and the fancy mango and banana drinks we ordered. There are also pictures of Lydia kneeling at a Buddhist Temple and throwing a coin in a Buddhist wishing well. The whole family kneeled together at the temple and were blessed by a Buddhist monk as well--we can use all the blessing we can get! (Art probably wished for Villanova to beat UNC-CH).
