We have arrived in Janae's home province!! It was a very short flight from Beijing. We had wonderful guides in Beijing they did an excellent job showing us around Beijing but it is so nice to be here we are ready to get Janae!! Regina said last night I just want to get my sister! So once again Regina and Nick are at the pool swimming and I'm nesting!! The crib just arrived....don't know if she will use it but it's here. The hotel were we are staying at is really really nice!! We receive our new daughter at 10 am tomorrow!! OMG Nick and I have already been crying.....please keep us in your thoughts. Of course we will post pictures asap!!

day 4

We have been dreaming of going to The Great Wall of China since we started this adoption journey and today we got to climb it!! Regina did awesome she kept up with the grown ups and the other older kids! We were in complete awe it was a surreal experience that none of us will ever forget. At night I was so tired but Regina and Nick talked me into going to the night market downtown Beijing. What an interesting adventure that was! I promise to post pictures as soon as Nick down loads them.
Regina has made some great friends on this trip Anna and Allie they love hanging out together.
Anna is my cyber friends daughter from Florida and we think Janae and her new daughter Lilly are good friends also!
(this post is actually from Henan but wanted to keep the posts in some order!)
