Gracie Turns 1





















Grace is one of the babies in her group..today was her first birthday her mother Maria is from Salt Lake City and traveled to China with Auntie Danea. Gracie's dad is anxiously waiting their return to the states. Grace previously loved to put her tongue out above her lips when she encountered the whole group, but as the days have past the tongue has been replaced with smiles and laughter. She has great teeth and pretty hair!

We all celebrated her birthday at a Thai restaurant. The food was great..the service horrendous, Claudia did not get her food until we were almost done and cried and cried..she fell out of the high chair because she is really too small for it..not up to US standards clearly, however she managed to stop crying in time for the cake which she really enjoyed.
After dinner we all strolled back to the hotel doing some window shopping. they sell everything you can think of here and I can't wait to shop for real tomorrow.

Tomorrow we will head to the doctors for a medical exam which she must pass in order to leave the country..should be no problem...then the plan is to shop and enjoy the benfits of this lovely hotel...more photos of today posted below.

Lisa,

I am a good friend of Kim and Sean Robinson (Cha Bing's New Mom and Dad). Your Blog is linked to theirs and it is absolutley WONDERFUL! You have gotten some fantastic photographs along your journey. I hope you don't mind me taking a look at your terrific photos. Congratulations on your beautiful new baby girl.

Please say hello to Kim and Sean. And tell Sean that you are "putting him to shame" with your photos and daily write ups! : ) We have an office of people that check their blog multiple times a day eagerly awaiting updates.

I wish you much happiness in the future. Again, thanks for sharing...
