Jia's foster sisters

I found the family adopting one of Jia's foster sisters!  How cool is that?!  I love the world wide web.  They live in Shanghai.  Hopefully we'll be able to stay in contact and maybe have the girls meet one day.  We'd love a trip to Shanghai :)  What a nice way to start the day.

We took Jia to the health clinic today.  They weighed her and apparently she's only gained 2oz. since her medical in Beijing.  Impossible.  She's got a new giant budha belly and a new double chin.  One of the scales was clearly wrong.  Anyways, she's 19.8lbs. now.

We've had Jia for one month today!  Time is flying by.  There are moments of total normallacy and then I realize 'my gosh, we went to China and brought back a baby! and life just carries on'.  Wow.

Hey, apparently there is a surprise baby shower being held for us on Nov. 20th.  If anyone wants to come, let my Mom know :)  And on that note, if I told you about the big open house at our place on Dec. 28th, cancel that. 

Oh, and the get together with Fei's SWI sister Olivia went great.  They hadn't seen each other in a while and they got along famously.  It was a whirlwind visit, they came for dinner, spent the night and left by 11 the next day.  We have plans to get together for a few days in the summer and we'll see them this winter at their house.  Abigail didn't make it, so it was just two of them.  Maybe next time we'll finally get those three together again.  I didn't ask Susan if she minded me posting a picture of the girls.  Will do that later if she doesn't mind.
