Toy Market

Yesterday we went to the Toy Market. I felt like I was in the middle of an Oriental Trading catalog! Abby was like a kid in a candy store. That place is a bit overwhelming! We had a great time picking out little things to bring home for all the girls and for our little friends.


For the rest of the day we just wandered around Shamian Island. After dinner at Lucy's I took the girls down to the Swan Room to play. It is so satifying to see Ruby having fun there. The first time we went she didn't even get off my lap. Now she runs all over the place. She loves to bring me the big Lego blocks one at a time. Back and forth, back and forth across the room.


We are in the home stretch now. Our oath ceremony is at the US Consulate this afternoon and we leave for the airport very early tomorrow morning. We are definitely ready!


Abby's favorite food here --french fries at Lucy's

After dinner stroll in the park

Go get the Legos . . .

. . . and bring them to Mom

Our favorite at Lucy's was the plate of broccoli. We had to divide it up evenly between all family members. We finally got smart and ordered 2 plates. Yup...lots of meals at Lucy's.
