Sunday July 29th

this is abby's favorite place in the hotel, siting on the safe, she will not let anyone take her off or sit with her. She is definately a mover and climber. If she is not moving, she is not happy, even in her sleep. The plane ride home should be interesting.

Sarah fell asleep this afternoon, it looks very uncomfortable but every time we moved her, she went back to this possition

Abby feeling much better this evening

Sarah is not feeling very good

We had another lazy day. The girls are not feeling well, we had a rough night so we took it easy today. Hopefully tonight will be better. Matt and I are tired.

I think this evening they were feeling a little better. They decided to unload the closet shelves where we have the clothes and played dress up. They put the clothes on themselves. Matt and I were quite entertained.

We did venture out for meals and a little stroll after dinner. It wasn't quite as hot or humid today. Abby decided today at dinner that table food is good. When we picked her up from the orphanage 2 weeks ago she had not had solids and was only on the bottle. She ate rice today and really liked it. We have tried since we got her but she would only eat a bit or two but today she really ate.

I forgot to mention how big the girls are. During there medical exams, they were very healthy. Sarah is a little small, but healthy, she weights 24.2 pounds. She wears 2t tops and 18 months pants are still a little big. Abby is very heathy and is big for a 17 month old as of asian standards, she weights 22.6 pounds. She wears 18 month tops and 12 month pants but these will not fit her for long.

I decided this morning that we all will be coming home on Friday, so I started to pack and get things organized. We have complete faith that Heavenly Father is in control and that we will be able to return home on friday all together and be reunited as a family.

Hoping for good news tomorrow from the embassy.
