We had Lia's physical exam today. Everything looks fine, her cough is nothing more than a cold, but they gave me some cold medicine and it has really helped. The surprising thing is that she is actually 19.1 pounds!! She is 30.5 inches long. So she has grown a good amount since her last medical exam. I suspect that she has gained a pound or two in the last two days:) She really is eating non-stop, though today we've tried to limit her feedings to only one bottle at a time, because yesterday she was polishing off a bottle and a half and I think she was getting uncomfortably full. She loves to look at herself in the mirror, and still loves to be outside. She is still doing pretty well, though today she seemed a bit nervous and gets very upset if the words "bye, bye" are uttered, or if anybody leaves the room. She also is becoming less agreeable when getting her diaper changed, but LOVES wearing shoes and gets upset when we take off her shoes. This is a bit of a change from yesterday.
This afternoon, we went to apply for her passport. Tomorrow we are going to the Guangzhou Department store. On Friday, we have a tour of a Buddist Temple and an Arts Market. We might change hotels on Saturday as there is much more for the kids to do in the other hotel. They are doing great, but are getting a bit restless as there is not much to do on the island. We are thinking of seeing if Garrett can shadow one of the hotel maintenance employees, hee hee, if you know Garrett- he loves to do work. In fact as we speak, he is pushing a stroller. pretending he is mowing...
I have no pictures to load today. I am tired, but will try to load new pictures tomorrow.

Wow... Lia has definitely grown!!! Glad to hear she just has a cold... poor thing! Hope you all are able to find more to do when you switch hotels. I think we'll still stay at the Victory since we won't be there that long. Got our first conference call today with the travel department... woohoo!!!!

(Bob and Meghan, I'm not sure if this has been sent. This has been very educational as I'm "Clueless in G.R.")
