Lizzy's Post




Hello everyone! So I guess I spoke too soon last night about Riley's sleeping....She went to bed around 9 last night and fell asleep fast. After 3 hours, she woke up on and off crying till about 3:30 A.M. She has a cold, so we think her coughing kept waking her up. Please pray for her sleeping habits! She seems to hate going to bed. It was a rough night on us all with little sleep, but we had a great day today! We basically shopped till we dropped. Looks like I won't be coming home with any money! We have gone to one store frequently, and a lady there loves Riley. She gave me a free bracelet yesterday and gave Riley a free outfit today! She is a very sweet woman and is a Christian, along with other store owners we have met! Everyone in Guangzhou is so nice, and we really do love it here! We all are already dreaming about coming here again in the future. We ate at another great Chinese restaurant tonight.

Tomorrow we are taking group pictures and then heading to the Consulate to take the oath. My parents have to make an oath to not ever abandon Riley and always take care of her. After tomorrow's appointment, she will officially be ours! It is our last step in this WHOLE adoption process of 4 agonizing years. Afterwards, we will probably get some food and then pack! Tomorrow is our LAST DAY!

Well, I am of course going to attach some pictures even though we didn't take as many today! Hope everyone is starting the week off good, and we all look forward to seeing everyone this Wednesday night. :)

Love and miss everyone,

Lizzy

P.S. Mrs. Grisham is having a GIRL!!!!!!!! I am sooooooooo excited for her and had to tell everyone. :)))))))))

And keeping our fingers crossed that Riley will sleep all night. ;)
