A day shopping with Ann

Today was a productive and good day. We hired Ann from RedThread China to take us shopping. Wow she is a bargin hunter! Well worth the money ($40). Henry was so good! Right after I send this note we are going swimming and then for ice cream. Emma and Molly learned some chinese too. Emma was just a little shorter then Ann LOL

We shopped for Chinese clothing, linens, lacquer boxes & jade. She even took us on the subway. The girls loved it. She was really good with Henry Dabo too.

We came back to the hotel and needed a luggage cart to haul up our purchases.

On the adoption front...Henry's consulate appointent went great and we should pick up his visa tomorrow!

Oh a funny note, at the jade market we ran into a family that Laurie knows! They are all here to help their daughter Nikki & her hubby adopt their first child. Their new daughter Gracie is beautiful and seems so peaceful.

I thought only Kathy new people everywhere!

Off to the pool!
