Goodbye Kunming

July 14th Goodbye Kunming!
Today we flew from Kunming to Guangzhou. The plane ride was two hours long and we were so unsure about how Sophie would do. Come to find out - we have a world traveler with us. She did so well. She took a bottle and was asleep withing 10 minutes of the flight!!! What a GREAT baby! We checked in at about 2pm at the White Swan and got our much anticipated Adoption Barbie. We shopped a bit - this city totally caters to Americans. There are many Americans with their adopted little girls here at the White Swan and it is fun to see all the sweet babies with new, loving families. People are so happy! We shopped around with our friends, Stacy, Paul and baby Cana. It is really hot and humid here - very difficult to be outside for any length of time - we are continually going into little shops - the ladies are so cute, the follow you around in the shops - fanning you as you browse around. Tomorrow we go to the pearl factory and the Buddhist temple. Sophie is sleeping so well. She sleeps through the night and wakes up around 8am in the morning. She wakes up so sweetly and smiles at us and babbles. We love giving her, her morning bottle. She gazes into our eyes and smiles at us. We are so amazed at how far she has come!!!! She knows who daddy and mommy are and cries when anyone else picks her up or talks to her! She has definitely bonded with us. We are blessed!
