Silly Lily







Lily is feeling very comfortable with her new family, she has become SILY Lily, she is your average three year old with a big laugh, lots of funny faces, silly behavior and very busy.   She loves her sunglasses and likes to wear them upside down most of the time like two other Lange sisters, Ava and Luci they just seem to fit better that way.

We had our American Consulate appointment today and took our Oath to love and protect and that all the info was correct so now tomorrow we just wait for our exit visa for Lily and we are ready to go.  The bad thing is our plane tickets back home are not till Sunday, that was all we could get using our miles so we will just have to wait it out.   It has been a long day we were up at 5:30 am left at 7:50 am for our consulate appointment,  hunted and gathered our lunch and dinner.  In between we had play time here at the hotel and shopping at a very upscale mall.  Stores like Dior, Prada, Dunhill, etc...we couldn't afford a thing except a really cool iPhone case from the Apple store with the Beijing Opera on it, and it was pricey but just to cool to pass up.  We ate at Danny's Bagels for all the friends who have been to China.   They no longer deliver, no mac and cheese no chicken but they did have pizza.  Danny the original owner passed away last year suddenly and the business moved, their business has changed since the White Swan is closed for renovations and adoptions have slowed down so they are just a restruant no delivery.  It was good and we went with another family.
Keep the prayers coming!!!!!!!!   We have to stay very busy so we don't miss home too much we have lots of down time here.  We are tired at night, so good night.

  1. I know the wait to come home must be so hard! Focus on the fact that you will soon be reunited and together as a whole family! Cherish your one-on-one time with Lily as best you can. You are creating strong bonds and she will then be ready to bond with her sisters. Can't wait for you all to be back in the U.S. and to meet Lily soon!
