Shopping! Shopping! Shopping! Yes, I admit it. There is
such a thing as too much shopping. First we went to
Shamian Island where they have lots of tiny stores set up
along the streets and you have to haggle for all their
wares. I like price tags better. We did have lunch at the
famous Lucy’s. It’s really only famous to adoptive parents
looking for a cheeseburger. Afterwards, we went to the 5th
largest mall in the world. We found the cutest clothes for
Lucy. And they were amazingly inexpensive. Lucy is doing
better everyday. If I say kiss and pucker my lips, she
will lean her forehead into me for her kiss. She is saying
mama and dada more and she is starting to reach out for
us. In the beginning, she didn’t want to be touched. You
will notice in the pic that she still doesn’t want to be
held when we feed her. We just put a hand behind her so
she doesn’t fall back while drinking. Jeff leaves tomorrow
for home and back to our boys. The other families here
have all been so wonderful in offering to help out in any
way they can while he is gone. We really did luck out and
have made what I hope to be lifelong friends.
Cade and
Coby,
Yep, I was thinking about the kangaroo. Have you seen
a pic of me with Lucy in the front carrier? I feel
just like a kangaroo with a baby in my pocket. Lucy
thinks it’s very funny when I hop up and down. And
don’t worry, daddy and I found some cool stuff for you
boys today too while we were shopping. We think about
you all the time and we tell Lucy all about her big
brothers. Today I am thinking about an animal that
rhymes with cat and has a skinny tail. Love you! |
