Consulate Appointment Day

Every time we get on the elevator, Jonas can hear the music and bobs his head up and down accordingly.  

Kyle has the magic touch for bedtime with little man, so he's currently working on that.  He has definitely begun crying at bedtime steadily, unlike when we first met!  I think he thinks I'm all about the playing and will quiet down better for Daddy who means business.  Kyle says he is playing me.  Willow has always done best for me at bedtime, so it works out!

You can't take phones or anything into the U.S. Consulate, so these are after shots.  We took an oath promising to always love and take care of our son.  (Actually, I helped Willow through multiple fits while Kyle and Jonas were over there!  Today was super hard for her.)

It's done; he's ours and will be a US citizen once he sets foot on US soil!!!

Grabbed some groceries after our appointment.  This little guy goes through diapers at lightning speed!

Jonas was so proud he figured out how to turn the TV on.  We found out today when seeing a cartoon in mandarin that Jonas and the TV will get along just fine.

After naps... Play time!!!  Thank God for swings!

He doesn't know what to think of her, because sometimes she loves on him and other times screams in his face or tries to hit.  I was telling her today that brothers and sisters are best friends forever.  She will get there; first we have to at least get home!

Slides with help are fun!  Jonas also sits by Willow on a swing while she swings.  Today for the first time he stepped into a play house area; he got brave.

Throwing leaves into the fountain is SO cool!

Bath time fun (and bonding)!
