We are in China!

Well, it took five trips to China to figure out how to get on my blog and other sites while in China. I'm happy I will be able to keep everyone posted on our trip!

Thank you, everyone, for praying! We had great flights, and Daniel--who had screamed almost the entire two flights home from China--did GREAT on the flights going back!!!!

Cherish and Andrew both suffer from motion sickness, and poor Cherish suffered the most. Even with motion-sickness salts put under her tongue, Pepto-Bismol, chewing and sucking on Ginger Snap cookies, trying to drink Ginger Ale, etc., the poor girl couldn't handle it. Thankfully, She had food in her stomach. Enough said (wink).

This time, to my complete surprise, we have a washing machine in the hotel room!!! We'll have to find some detergent and find a way to hang up the wet clothes (because there is no dryer and no hanging line), but we are SO THANKFUL!!!!

In addition, we have a kitchenette(!!!!!), so we are looking forward to finding some food to bring back to the hotel to make meals.

We are so happy to be back to the sea of Chinese faces. How beautiful everyone is!

From our layover in Newark, NJ:

And, when we hit our hotel room:

When your little one has been transitioned out of a crib, but is not ready to sleep in a bed without rails, and you're too tired to do much of anything, you quickly empty a bag and create a bed for your little one.

More later....
