Our First Full Day with Brooklynn!!

Getting ready to go to Breakfast.

I love my book!


Smiling for Mommy

Playing with Daddy. Clint got her to laugh for the first time today and that was the best sound ever!

She likes to play. I can't say it enough she has a beautiful smile!

Today we went to the Civil Affairs Office to complete our paper work. Wow, what a relief that is to have that finished. Alot of answering questions I know we have completed in paper work leading up to this day. We signed our name to alot of paper work. Our guide was very helpful and was good to explain what we signing. Her name is Mary (that is what we call her anyway) and she explains the history of the city as we ride to where we are going. Shanxi province is the oldest in China's History. We drove down a street today that had alot of vendors on the side of the road. It reminds me of China Town in NYC except they lay their food on the ground to sell. Brooklynn seemed nervous as we entered the Civil Affairs Building today, and did not want to let go of me. Once we left she seemed at ease and more peaceful, almost as if she knew that we were her new family. Words can not explain the emotions we felt as they told us that everything was done. Tommorrow 9-5-07 we will be going to the park with our guide Mary.
