Julianne learned how to wave Bye Bye. We taught her how to do that the other day and she used it last night with Jacky's Aunties and Uncles. She's so smart!

Today was another hectic day as well. We went to the local temple of 2000+ years to have all the babies blessed by the monk inside the temple. But because today was the 15th of the month and Chinese Holiday (Moon Festival), there were a gozillion people at the temple - and everywhere else we went for that matter. As you can tell by the pictures, it was a crazy busy day in Guangzhou.

There are alot of picutres today because I've decided not to edit them and only show Julianne pictures. There are some pictures of the temple and pictures of the other children we are traveling with. There are some pictures with Jacky's and Joanne's aunts and uncles as well! Julianne was the star of the show, of course. She kept them all entertained!

Enjoy the pictures!

Tummy time!

This was our first day in Guangzhou and it was a LONG day! We got up around 7am (which is our usual wake up time with Julianne as our alarm clock). Finished breakfast around 8:30am and headed out for our LONG journey to Shenzhen to visit Kit's 80 year old aunt. We had to take the hotel shuttle to the train station (30 min ride); then 1 hour train ride from GZ to Shenzhen; then 1.5 hour taxi ride from train station to his aunt's place! The whole time, the taxi driver was complaining about how far he had to drive to bring us there and to return to the city with an empty cab - I feared for life! That was just the beginning - on hour way home, Kit's cousin told us it would be so much faster to take the bus from their rural town back to Guangzhou. Again, I fear for our lives. The bus driver was driving like a maniac; I almost got sick from it! The girl next to us did get sick and they actually have vomit bags hanging from the top rack of the bus! (Scary). Once we got off, we had to wait 30 minutes for a taxi to make it back to the White Swan. Just riding on train and car was about 6 hours today. Julianne is such a trooper. She only got figity a few times, and sleep most of the way there and most of the way back.

This is not of Julianne crying - she's barely done that - but of her taking care of her business. There's no mistaking when she does - and it happens in her high chair of all places. As soon as we sit down for dinner, she will put her feet up and take care of business.... It's the funniest thing!

I'm not sure if this is going to work but I took this video today and thought I would put it up for you to hear and see Mun Mun play!
