hi friends and family!

Typhoon in China! Lots of rain here today! Don't worry, they have these all summer aparently! We met up with some friends for dinner and ate at a really nice Italian restaurant. They both have also adopted children, and one happens to be one of Shawn's fraternity brothers from Mercer! They haven't seen eachother since graduation! Crazy isn't it, small world!

Our guide took us into downtown Guangzhou to a grocery store today, and all of the workers followed us and stood in the isles staring at Baylor and Tanner! The guide says that the people are facinated with their hair! It was really funny!

Also, a funny observation: My immediate family and I always joke that people in Georgia will haul just about anything on a trailer! Well the city of Guangzhou gives that a whole new meaning! There are people on bikes everywhere weaving in and out of traffic carrying all sorts of things. One guy yesterday had a door on his, one had a grill! Today topped them all when we saw a guy cutting in and out of traffic holding a HUGE sheet of glass up under his arm! But I suppose if you want to get somewhere fast in the city, a bike is the way to go. You just have to be ok with the fact that you might get squished by a car before you get to your destination!

Hope you enjoy the pics! MJ is doing great, and we have realized that she is already fully potty trained at 2 1/2! She is precious.

When I saw the latest pics of Carson, the tears really started flowing! We cannot wait to see him! Regardless, keep them coming Kathryn, we look forward to each post! You are definately getting a good taste of the daily trials (and joys) of Motherhood! xoxo
