Home Update

Wow! It has been almost a week since we have been home. Time sure does fly!! Anna Li is doing great:) and adjusting very well. She loves her family, her home, her room, the top bunk, and especially Pebbles the cat. I think she is a little bored staying at home. We took Bethany to her first day of school on Monday and Anna Li really wanted to stay. Next week she will be tested and we will have a better idea of what grade to start her in. She is such a people person and I really think she will be much happier in school vs. staying home with mom and/or dad. I am not sure how the language barrier will go over but I know people do it everyday. It will all work out! As far as food goes, she is definitely a meat eater. She loves my cheese stuffed meatloaf, hot dogs (without the bun), and fish. She is not crazy about casseroles but will give everything a try. She LOVES noodles but we try to limit the amount she eats because it is so high in sodium. She also loves to snack on slim jims (beef sticks), raisins, and LOVES Doritos (chips)!!

FAMILY FUN!!
We took the kids to Chucky Cheese last night and Anna Li had a blast. For those that do not know, Chucky Cheese is a pizza place that gives the kids tokens to play games, win tickets, and get prizes. When we were done each of the kids got to pick out a prize and Anna Li picked out a pair of glasses that had a funny nose and mustache attached. It totally suited her. She loves to be silly and laugh:) I am sorry to say I left my camera at home:( I promise I will get better and post some pictures soon.

We went to Bethany's school the same day and talked to the class about our trip. Anna Li loved to be in the classroom!! She didn't have a problem standing up in front of everyone and teaching the class some Chinese (hello, thank you, and good bye). I think all the kids enjoyed it and they loved the chopsticks we gave them.

I will post again next week and let everyone know how our doctor visit went. I promise I will post some pictures then too:)
