Wife talking here...Is that man ever going to put a bow in that child's hair? I sent a bag full of hair accessories, cute, precious ones, but has anyone seen one??? I've also noticed that Geordyn doesn't look happy in a lot of her pictures, one especially made me cry. Houston said today she was fussy, irritable, even cried during her bath. Houston had noticed she had a little runny nose. So decided to give her some Tylenol. Well, her true personality started to come out. Apparently she wasn't feeling well and the Tylenol really perked her up. At breakfast the restaurant fixed the babies some egg soufflé, which Houston could not feed her fast enough. Might need the recipe for that stuff!
The touring involved the Hunan University, over 1000 years old. Houston especially enjoyed looking at the boats on the river near, except the smog was so bad, you couldn't see what was on the other side. The guide Richard helped everyone fill out File folder 3 that could not be done until you got to China.
Houston told me everywhere they go, people want to touch the babies and comment on pretty they are. I guess it is not everyday in China you see a big group of true Southerns from the United States walking around with 5 Chinese babies. The waitress at the restaurant tonight wanted to hold Geordyn and play with her. She commented on how rare curly hair is in China and that her eyes were very big and beautiful. Things we already knew! Sorry, the proud mommy coming out.

Houston decided to take Geordyn to the hotel doctor since she still had a runny nose. The doctor said everything sounded and looked okay. Houston gave her more Tylenol and she was able to sleep more today.
The group visited the embroidery factory today. The ladies apparently do beautiful work on all sorts of items. Sounds like my husband bought a little of everything. (I'm so proud of his newly developed shopping skills.) He purchased pictures, sunglass cases, lipstick cases, fold out fans, matching vests for Hannah and Geordyn, fold out screens where the embroidery can be seen through the screen, and pillowcases. I had told him not to bring any money home when he thought he would not what to buy. I think he thought I was serious!
The ladies doing the work were thrilled when Houston asked to take their picture. It will be so special to see the actual Chinese ladies that made our keepsakes.
Geordyn is not sick sitting on the couch with Rebecca Grace. She is mad. Apparently this little bully baby with her took my baby's pacifier out of her mouth! This is especially funny because Rebeccca Gace's mom, Lynn and I grew up together and work at the same school now. When we first got our referral pictures of the babies, we and everyone else thought they were twins since they looked so much alike. Lynn and I had even talked about DNA testing. The resemblance is not as strong now as they have gotten older. But it seems they are going to act like sisters and we can tell which is going to be the bad twin!
Anyway you can see her daddy made her feel better later.

Rebecca Grace is soooo happy to be a new Sargent. Say hey to everybody.
