Our trip to China was good. It was really hot and humid. Picture getting dressed, and then going and standing in the shower. Yes, that hot. Man did I sweat in places that I didn't know a human being could sweat in!
Now I know what it feel like to wet ones self and then sit down- squish. The only comfort I had was knowing that everyone else was experiencing the very same thing. So that wet butt of mine was in a sea of wet butted poeple. Thank goodness it dried fast.
Gotcha day was a flurry of emotions for both Scott and myself. We flew in the wee hours of Sunday August 5th to Chongqing China. When we arrived, our guide told us that our babies were on their way to our hotel and we should be seeing them in a few short hours. So off to the hotel to unpack, wrap gifts, and get prepared for Grace. We sat in our hotel room waiting and trying to remain calm. The call came an hour after we expected. We were the first family sown in the lobby and had the fist glimps of those 8 little angels. All of them were sitting on couches in the lobby. Grace was just hanging out watching everyone go by. We were afraid we wouldn't know which baby she was- but those cheeks and lips gave her away! None of the babies cried when they were handed to their parents. It was perfect.
