Out and About Part II.....

Yesterday we had the privilege to visit the Hubei museum. They had a great display showing a Tibet exibit. We also watched a traditional performance using bells and chimes. After visiting the museum, we rode around the East lake and took a little stroll. Joshua looked as if he wanted to go swimming. He also took his brother and sister for a little jog. We may have a future track star on our hands. We finished the night with traditional American food (Pizza Hut). Unfortunately, the bandwidth is pretty bad here today and it takes forever to upload pictures. We will try to post pictures a little later!

Out and About

They are so spicy, they numb!
Dinner anyone?

Attack of the Mongolian Death Worm!

Love my Sister.

This morning we headed down to breakfast at around 7:15 am. Then enjoyed our daily talk with Andrew, Joy, Grandma and Lisa via Skype. What an amazing thing to be half a world apart but able to chat easily. We then set out for the grocery to get more water, Joshua's favorite sweet milk drink and of course saw a few other items one might enjoy while in China.

Tub Time

Yes that is laundry! We have been washing every day in our tub. Thank goodness for travel size tide and the built in retractable clothes line.

Joshua is doing wonderfully! He is eating well and his favorite foods so far are watermelon and noodles. Our guide took us out to dine last night at a authentic Chinese restaurant. Folks, the states Chinese take-out is a no go from now on. The food she ordered for us included duck (skin which you wrap in a rice wrap with sauce, cucumber and cabbage), pork meatballs with sticky rice on the outside, mushrooms, fried dumplings, salad with a soy sauce, garlic dressing, and of course noodles in a soup. We all ate like pigs!! We were so busy eating and conversing with Kathy our guide that we forgot to take pictures. Once, returning to our hotel room. Joshua and Daddy enjoyed some fun at bath time. He loves the bath and sits quietly and plays with his toys.

Officially an Ivey!!!

We completed our paperwork this morning! He is legally an Ivey! He was so excited that he threw up all over Mom. (He truly is an Ivey). Seriously, we are so blessed and very excited about our newest family member. All we can do is thank God for the blessings he has given us.

We are getting tons of smiles and laughs!

More to come.....
