Hello

Izabella say "Ni Hao (said nee-how)" -Hello!

Well today we had a bit better day. We have gone from getting better from an ear infection and upper respiratory infection to teething!! Sweet thing just went to bed and she is still sniffling in her sleep once and a while. This parenting thing is hard when your babies feel bad!! But is so great!! She is so precious that she melts my heart every time I look at her!

Today we got to go to the Panda Zoo of Chongqing - it was great! I was dying to see some Panda bears and we got to see those and Tigers...

It was one of the most beautiful zoo's I have ever been to. The bamboo trees and palm trees were everywhere and it was plopped right in the middle of of the city all around. Of course it is not the same without Jack, Palmer and Katelyn!!

These pictures were from the silk factory we went to visit. They had some beautiful items. We decided to save our money for later in Guangzhou!

This was our lunch today! It was some kind of chicken - bone and all and the red things are some type of red peppers. Allison kept telling us that it was very spicy. So far I have not had anything too spicy!! Lunch was way better today!! They even served corn - with peas and carrots of course! They put peas and carrots in everything!

Izabella crashed at the restaurant after the zoo!! She downed 2 bottles in a row! She had hardly eaten in two days so I let her have it. Would not have normally but her wanting to eat is a good sign of her feeling better!

This was one of our groups at lunch! The restaurant was very beautiful! It started out sweltering hot in there and they must have had to mop the floors from our sweat because they turned the air on for us!! Yea!!

This was a beautiful fan that I bought from a lady at the zoo today!! I just love it!!

This is the Panda Purse that mommie just had to buy for Izabella!!

Another bath today!! We love the water!!

Look Granny - I have a bow in my hair - of course it won't stay in long because my hair is too short!!

Each day seems to get better!! We actually had good food tonight at the restaurant in the hotel! It was Tex Mex night - believe it or not, it was really good - spicy but I like it!! That is what this area is know for, its spicy food - Sichuan!! Going to bed now!!
