Gotcha moment ... well this was the craziest one ever. The room was SOOO loud! First, we showed up at the Civil Affairs building and the girls were outside walking in with us. No one had their cameras ready. They showed us to them and I hugged them and kissed their little heads. Then they made us go upstairs alone ... so we could meet again there. TONS of families were there. It was loud! One family was crying ... we found out the orphanage director forgot their baby. (what???) So they will have their gotcha moment tomorrow.
The girls seem well ... no colds etc. They love food! Lily loves spicy food while Kaitlyn loves every kind of food. Boy, she is a handful. More later!
The girls don't prefer one of us over the other ... they'll take either. Lily is working hard on her English already. She keeps bringing me her book with card pictures in it and asking me to tell her the name of them.
Daddy playing with Kaitlyn.
The glasses and clothes were a hit for Lily. The shoes .. not so much. We will have to go shopping. Black converse are not her style, maybe pink converse will be. So far everything that she has picked has been pink. She loved this outfit.
Kaitlyn and her new shades ... she also liked her panda outfit.
Guangzhou restaurant ... the girls loved everything.





Happy and HUGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
