Monday the 16th in Guangzhou and Misc photos

It's early Monday morning in Guangzhou and only a few more days until we head back home.   We're both missing our little man so much but have been Skyping with him and my family regularly so we get a quick Wyatt fix about once a day or so! :)  Can't wait to get home and love on him!!  Little does he know we are bringing him quite the special souvenir!! :)

We had Hadley's Medical exam and vaccines on Saturday and all went very well.  Her fever remained down and they were able to vaccinate her.  Our poor baby has been stuck so many times since we've arrived in China that I couldn't hold her for this round.  I asked Brandon to be the bad guy.  Now that the Medical portion of our exam is over, we're feeling a huge sigh of relief.  Today is our Consulate appt and after that we're going to go do shopping and walking around.  

We've had a camera debacle....Actually the debacle is called, no more camera....We've lost it.  We'll just add that to the list!  I haven't included all of the things that have happened since we've arrived because we've been so focused on Hadley but lets just say when we realized it was gone we both were unphased and not at all surprised.  The good news is I still have my camera phone, so I wanted to show the prettiest smiling face I've seen this entire trip!!! :)

Missing everyone very much!! Sending love and hugs....
Robin, Brandon and Hadley

Also, I've been meaning to share....The reason you haven't seen any video from Gotcha day is because we set our video camera up to record and hit record but the second the door opened to our hotel room, the camera shut off and we never knew until we tried to play it back and had a quick 1 minute shot of the door :,-(  Another one of the those "moments" I was mentioning above. It broke our hearts because it's such a precious moment and we can't ever get it back but the good news is that B took a few pics from my camera phone, so I'll include them below.  We knew pretty quickly she was a sick lil peanut...

  1. When it comes to weddings and grand adventures, the best memories are of all the things that didn't go quite as they were supposed to. They make for great stories later in life, when the kids ask, "When you were....?" or when the two of you sit around and say, "Do you remember when...?"
