Today we took all the babies for their medical check up. We walked from the hotel to the clinic, about 8 blocks. The stroller really came in handy. The clinic was full of people, practically standing room only. They took us down a hallway to the adoption area. I took a photo ofcourse as I have looked at this sign in this hallway a thousand times over the years. Its so funny to see  so many familiar things in a place I have never been before. Katie did not like the checkup. It was real fast, three stations and she cried at each one of them. They checked her ears first and she really didn't like it so it was down hill after that. She even cried hard when they weighed her. Her weight was 15lbs, with clothes and diaper on. Tomorrow is our consulate appt, we have given our guide all our paperwork and the rest of the fees.  We have to wait in the room while she goes to the consulate in case their is a question. In the afternoon we are getting all the girls together for the famous red couch photo in their silk dresses. We bought some of those today for both girls along with several pairs of squeaky shoes. We also bought a suit case today, just  a carry on. They are cheap and we need some space for the stuff we have bought. We will start to think about packing tomorrow.I forgot to mention it yesterday but we got the adoption barbie.  She is kinda funny, she has a long blonde braid and ofcourse if holding a chinese baby. The White Swan hotel is full of adoption families. We have met people from all over the US. A couple walked through breakfast wearing Auburn T-shirts yesterday. We have also met a couple from Mississippi that I got to know online while we waited. She and I had spoken on the phone several times but she is not with our agency. Anyway, they  where in the same province as us and are now here at the hotel. Super nice people. Well I know I am forgetting something. We have walked all day long today and Katie continues to be a real sweetie. Better go for now, only a few days left.
