Today we went to a temple local to Nanchang - built from the Ming dynasty. It was a nice day and it was nice to be tourists for the day. It was hot and tiring but was only a 1/2 day event so it was nice.
She's definitely a handful but we're so blessed to have her!

Day 4 with Ms. Mun-Mun
More Pictures - Day 3 with Mun-Mun
So it's now 8:52pm and she's sound asleep for the night. The afternoon was fun for Ms. Mun-Mun (we're trying to stick to calling her by her Chinese name for now) - there's a Children's Fun Land so we got to go and hang out there for a while. Tomorrow we're having play dates with the other girls and Kai (18 month old adopted boy from our group) after our trip to the temple so that all the babies can be blessed.
Here are some pictures from this afternoon and evening.
Enjoy!
Day 3 with Julianne
Today was a mellow day. We had the opportunity to go to the orphanage (3 hour drive there and back) but we decided that it was not a good idea for the family to go. So we stayed behind to spend some quality time with Julianne.
She did great last night. She slept from 9pm and woke up once at 4am to take a bottle. Went back to sleep until about 7am. We did not hear a peep from her when she woke up... only when daddy got up to go to the bathroom did he see that she was awake and playing with the toys in her crib!
That's my sweetie!
It's 3:15pm and Julianne is napping. She just loves to play and will not sleep today! She finally feel asleep in daddy's arm and I am able to break away to write a few words and upload a few pictures for you early risers - I want to make sure that there's fresh stuff every day for you guys :)
She's such an angel when she's sleeping!
Can't wait to see everyone!
Jen, Kit, Julianne

I'm am exhausted and will give a more detailed post tomorrow but I wanted to give you a sneak preview of pictures to come..............
WE'RE HERE - in Nanchang
Kit and I arriving at the airport in Hong Kong to fly to Nanchang.
After a short flight, we've made it into Nanchang. When we arrived, they set up Julianne's crib - and it just totally hit me that this is all real! I almost cried!
Here's a picture of our view from Nanchang's room:
We're told that we should meet Julianne around 10:30 a.m. tomorrow. Stay tuned........
Love,
Jen & Kit
Good Morning from Hong Kong! It's 6:50 A.M.
Kit and I made it into HK last night around 6:37 P.M. (which was Saturday morning your you guys in the US). We had a very busy night last night.... after we got our 4 gigantic pieces of luggage, we checked into the hotel (which they upgraded us because, I think, they saw how many pieces of suitcase we had! :)), then we went to Sum Gang to get BBQ Goose (very famous place for goose), and finally we went to visit Kit's Auntie. By the time we made it back to our hotel room it was around midnight.
You would think after a 15 hour flight and 20+ hours of travel, Kit and I would have a great night sleep....and to make sure we get some sleep before we pick up Julianne.... WRONG! The both of us couldn't sleep last night - I think it's a combo of jet lag and excitement...............13 hours to Julianne!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
More posts and pictures to come....
