Forget the Bottle...

...we've discovered bacon!
Yeah, who needs powdered formula when you can have pork?!?

Today we went to the Xi'an city wall and the local market.  Ready to go!
 The city wall, the most complete city wall in China.

 We tried the Ergo today...success!

 At the market.
 Wonder how much corn a guy could plant in here?
 Dumpling designs for the dumpling festival.
 Drum tower in the background
Anything you could possibly want at the market
 I've never been a fan of tea, especially the flower teas, but the wheat tea in this province is awesome!
 Drum tower
Give me a hand...er, a hoof
 Fish.  
Khloie continues to blossom.  Today she played with her toys and walked around the room.  She's now decided Mama is ok.  Girlfriend has a stubborn streak!  When we try to put her in the stroller, a high chair or down on the floor, if it's not what she wants at the moment, she protests by either turning into a noodle or getting stiff as a board.  Yep, she's 2!

Tomorrow afternoon we get her passport and fly to Guangzhou!  We won't land until 9 pm, but we are so ready for GZ!  This will be Khloie's first flight and many more changes for her.

Until then...

Loving all your pictures, but especially the one where she's staring up at Mama's face! Precious.

I'll be praying for your safe and uneventful travel to Guangzhou!

Oh, I Love,Love,love the picture where Khloie is looking up at you!! ... and I love the smiles! Looks like the beautiful flower is beginning to blossom.
Are you guys staying at the Garden hotel? If so, you gotta try a few of the restaurants down the street... Fish and Chips at the Irish Pub and Tacos and green salsa at Tequila's (wonderful Mexican food!!...it is owned by someone from Mexico).
Everything is going well here! I know the kids are missing you and the way "momma does it". Praying for your safe travels to GZ.

So glad she's doing so good! Also, very weird that Conner was there just a few days ago :). Glad she's liking her momma, too because momma is a pretty cool person!

Enjoying reading your blog. We leave for Guangzhou today too from Hubei province. So happy things are going well with your cutie. Our five year old is pulling the same limp noodle/stiff as a board stuff too!! We are loving our newest daughter! Have a great time in Guangzhou!
