Today, we went to get baby’s visa photo and medical check done. She made the decision from the moment the medical checkup began, that she did not like that place or the nurses or the doctors. She cried and cried and cried. Bless her heart! We did find out that she was, as of now, 19.5 lbs. with clothes on and 71cm. long. What a little bitty precious petite darling she is. She checked out A-OK! Praise the Lord! We thank everyone for their prayers.
After the medical exam, we all went to a tea house where they taught us the history of Chinese tea, and explained how to tell a quality teapot from a cheap one! Interestingly, a teapot from China that is a quality one is made from clay, and the more it is used, the darker the teapot gets. Our guide said that a person can actually make money in China by drinking tea because the more he uses a teapot, the higher its value goes up! A teapot is an investment similar in China to a good antique! Just a bit of Chinese trivia there!
After that, we went home and ordered in delivery from Danny’s Bagel, a great restaurant that only delivers. It is located here in Guangzhou and is owned by an American man. The food is a taste of home and is a comfort to people like us who have been away from the USA for a short while! We ordered Mac and Cheese and Chicken Quesadillas and a Grilled Ham & Cheese Sandwich! Becca loved the Mac and Cheese! This kid can eat! For the first time in Becca’s history with us, she actually refused food this morning at breakfast! This was a first! We wondered when she would get full, and today, for the first time she did! She is such a joy to have as a child, and is a very happy baby and a healthy eater! Thank God for this!
