We visited the pearl market this morning and purchased a pendant, something we have in mind for a future daughter-in-law. (If we don't like her, it will be for Mommy!) We then spent much of the day playing in the play room and walking around the island. This afternoon we had Brett's TB test checked. Luckily, his results were negative but a couple other families in our travel group were not so fortunate and had to stay for x-rays to clear their children. We then headed to the pool, where Brett had a blast splashing Mommy and Daddy.
Here are a few things we've learned about our son:
-He loves his Mommy and Daddy, but does not like if Mommy leaves the room. He has been giving kisses freely to Mommy for some time, but Daddy even rates a few now.
-His head turns for any pretty woman.
-He loves to eat tomatoes, yogurt drinks, Dim Sum, french fries, and chicken nuggets.
-He sucks his pointer finger when he sleeps.
-He can now say, "Excuse me," when he belches louder than any adult man.
-He is the most curious kid, always asking questions and wanting to share his new knowledge with anyone who will listen.
-He is amazingly sweet and loving. We just finished putting hydrocortisone on some bug bites when he noticed a freckle on Mommy's back. He insisted on putting medicine on Mommy too and kissing it better.
-He can sweet talk anyone out of something. He leaves every store with "free" gifts and has talked several waitresses into bringing him something special at restaurants.
-Best of all, he is perfect for our family. We love his mischievous smile and sweet little voice.

I just got caught up on your last few days... Brett seems to be all smiles! I hope you enjoy your last few days in China, though I imagine you guys are ready to get home and see your girls. I'm so thankful Brett has fit so seamlessly into your family -- that's the Father's grace. :)
Glad to hear Brett's TB test was OK and happy to see him in the pool. I've completely fallen in love with Brett, he's darling!
Love it!
Hahaha Brett is certainly the ladies' man and a good story teller! I can only imagine how many people he charms on your outings. I'm so happy to hear that he is fitting in with the family so well!
What a cutie you have there. The US cannot wait for this new citizen to join our family.
Hee, hee, aren't boys great??!! :D The other day David farted twice, smiled at me, and uttered, "Mama, wah, ooh!", holding up first one, then two fingers. I yelled, "HE'S COUNTING!!" I'm so proud, sniff!
Brett has already fit in here, and he's not even here yet!! I'd better get the FAC families back together soon! Enjoy Guangzhou. That Cantonese restaurant on the second floor of the White Swan is inexpensive and yummy!!
Aw...he sounds just adorable! Glad to hear his tests went well!
