As you can see, our day did not start off well. Teagan had a restless night and was running a fever this morning. Probably from the vaccinations - I don't think she is really sick. As long as someone was actually holding her, she would stop crying.
Here is Jason with Catherine and Teagan - in matching outfits from my mom.
And me with the girls.
This is Catherine eating her favorite breakfast here - dumplings and noodles.
Teagan loves scrambled eggs, tater tots, watermelon, bananas, and noodles. She actually ate my pesto pasta last night at dinner. Here she is pointing to food she wants.
I think she is feeling better after the power breakfast and baby motrin.
We sat by Bailey and her family in our travel group this morning. Bailey and Catherine have become good friends and are both: turning 7 soon, have younger siblings now named Teagan and Keenan (a boy), both of whom have the same special need, mom's named Michelle, and dad's whose names start with a J (Jason and Jim), one "Irish" parent each, and one "French" parent each, and each have a parent who turned 40 crossing the international timeline! This is their "model pose" after breakfast.
And on the way to..........
....YES - STARBUCKS!
There used to be an independent coffee store right here when we here for Catherine. Jason, Cat, and I spent one great rainy afternoon in there, playing, listening to music and talking to the owner. It's a bit sad he is gone (although a latte was great). Another favorite of our's -the noodle shop- was also gone. In it's place is a gift store with laundry service. The most amazing laundry service.
If the battery was not out of the camera, I would photograph our laundry as it came back beautifully folded and sealed in bags. Amazing! And cheap. I am half tempted to have it all done before we leave for home and just throw the beautiful bags in our luggage.
We did a little more shopping on the way home. Not a lot as it was HOT, and both girls were starting to feel overheated. We have spent a great afternoon in the pool. I am really disappointed for the grandparents that I cannot take photos there. Catherine and Natalie swam all afternoon and Teagan loved the kiddy pool. She got progressively more brave and even got in up to her shoulders and also laid her head back in the water, on her own and laughed. A lot.
Tonight is the travel group's Thai dinner. I am looking forward to that! We were there last time, too. The food on this trip, after Shangahi, is a little disappointing - more "western chinese' food or just Western food than we had last time.
