We had another great day here in Nanchang. We took a nice walk to what they call "City Mall". We also got to walk around some of the side streets and alleyways and got a glimpse of life here in Nanchang. LuLu came out of her shell a bit more today. She even scolded us a few times when we didn't get things just right. It's great to see her little personality more and more each day. She is eating great and seems to be getting stronger each day. She is now trying to roll over. Also, when she is sitting on the floor she walk her hands out and stares at the floor like she knows if she get her arms and legs going in the right direction, she could go places.
We are heading further south tomorrow to Guangzhou. That is where we will complete the US immigration part of this process. Jon and I are both a little sad about leaving out little cocoon we have established here in our hotel room. To be honest with you, this hotel room would not have impressed me if if I had walked into it back home. However, to us it has been absolute paradise for the last 4 days. It is this room where we first met this amazing little person that we are blessed to share our lives with. This is where we heard her giggle for the first time and where we get to see that big gummy smile several times a day.

Make sure you take pictures of the room! Odd as it may sound, that is a very important part of your whole experience, and just looking at those pictures will bring back the wonderful memories of your first meetings, first smiles and first giggles and kisses! Enjoy this last leg of your overseas adventure, before you come home:)
Hello...I have recently stumbled across your blog and want to congratulate you on your beautiful daughter! My husband and I were in Nanchang holding our daughter for the first time just two years ago. (Our daughter is from the Ling SWI in Jiangxi.) Seeing your photos and reading about your Nanchang adventures is all bringing back such wonderful memories. Yes, it may sound crazy to most to feel sadness about leaving a hotel room but it is where you first became a family and will always hold a dear place in your heart. Safe travels to Guangzhou...the first of many plane rides with your new daughter!
