Pictures from Guangzhou (second week)
The week in Changsha was very exciting and very challenging.
We got Hanna on Sunday night and spent the rest of the week doing paperwork, sight seeing and comforting a sad little girl
who was having a tough time adjusting to these strange new parents. But it had it's rewards and we caught a glimpse
of what Hanna would be like a week later in Guangzhao. For brief periods of time she would smile or speak or make eye
contact. She even played with the other babies one evening. Then we got on the plane at the end of the week and
landed in Guangzhou and we thought someone had switched babies with us during the flight. Click on the link to Guangzhou
and you can start to follow the change. It was like she decided to put the old life behind and stick with these crazy
new parents after all. Whew!
