So, Another Relaxing Day

We had another pretty easy day.

Gracie slept fairly well last night (stirred a few times, one changing), and ate a lot at breakfast this morning.  The buffet here has oatmeal as well as congee, so we are starting to make the switch.  She also really likes apple juice.

We had an medial appointment this morning for the US visa.  We went to a clinic on the island, and it had a dedicated group / rooms for handling the adoptions as well as the normal medical clinic type services.

Gracie weighed in at 18.1 pounds, and is a little over 28 inches long if we read the chart right.  They did a few tests, and we were done in about ten minutes.

After that we did some more shopping to get things for the house, and also get Gracie some Gotcha Day gifts.  About half of the stores here take Visa; the rest just do Chinese money.  We also went to a tea store, and I bought some puer tea.  De brought in a pearl dealer to the hotel, and Angela got a bunch of items.

Angela is attempting to get Gracie to take a nap right now.  She won’t take a bottle, and is practicing squirming, giggling, biting, kicking, babbling, and gymnastics; none of these are terribly conducive to sleeping.

I am not totally sure of the rest of the events we have left.  We have to wait in our rooms tomorrow morning in case there are any questions about our paperwork.  We meet with De in the afternoon about something, and I think we do the visa interview on Wednesday.  All I am sure of is that we get the visa on Wednesday right before we leave for for Hong Kong.
