Our last day in Nanning...
Well we had our last day in Nanning and she is officially ours. We had meetings with the notary and with the CCAA and she is now ours. We had to pledge our oath to love, cherish and educate Mina. Like that was really ever an issue. The events took up most of the morning. We had a nice hot sunny day today in Nanning. I do believe it’s hotter and muggier than St. Louis. We took an afternoon trip to one of the malls. 7 stories tall and you can get just about anything. It was kind of overwhelming. All the signs were in Chinese and we didn’t know where anything was. We ended up bailing and going back to Wal-Mart. I know, its against everything I stand for but it is easy and most areas and items are marked in English. It is also cheap, just like in the US... Mina was a little fussy this evening. We are all getting use to each other and its challenging trying to figure out what she wants. I’m sure it will get easier as time goes one.
Baba is definitely the favorite right now. She will play with Susan but when she gets tired or fussy, she wants her Baba... She didn’t get a very proper nap today so thisafternoon was challenging. Like last night though we got her to sleep at 8:30 and she will probably sleep till around 6am.
Tomorrow we set out to Guilin. This town is about a 3 hour bus ride away. Yes that’s a 3 hour buss ride with 14 babies and families in tow. I’m sure it going to just be a blast. Guilin is one of the most picturesque places in china. It should be very exciting to go there and I’m sure i will have some great pictures.
Well ill leave it at that. Its getting late and I have to still take a shower so we are ready in the morning.
wan an... (Good night)

Can't imagine 7 stories of stores.
I barely make it through our 3 story malls. It used to seem a lot easier....I guess they make the floors longer now (ha ha) Oh yeah maybe I'm getting slower.
Congratulations again since it is now OFFICIAL. YEAH
WELCOME BABY MINA...WE LOVE YOU
SEE YOU SOON.
LOVE AUNT JUDIE
