What we are up to.....

Greetings from Zhengzhou! I'm posting pictures for you all to see our little family in action.  To give you all an update on Shawn, the tears have almost completely stopped.  He's still crying while getting a diaper changed and he HATES bathtime.  He is waking up once or twice during the night, but not for long.  He is also in love with his daddy.  Him and I had a great Monday afternoon and Tuesday; on Wednesday he decided to completely reject mommy.  He would start crying when I looked at him and would NOT come near me.  This is typical attachment behavior, but it's tough to deal with.  Hence the lack of updates on blogger and facebook.  If he's willing to spend time playing with me, everything stops and he gets 100% of my attention.  Today has already been better; Brian was able to shower and I only had a few tears to deal with. To give you all an update on Bella, she's been a champ.  She's handled the trip and getting a baby brother like a true princess.  That's not to say she hasn't had moments, but it's all understandable and typical.  Like she said earlier to us, "You would think it's easy to be a princess, but it's not".  For real...that's what she told us.  Without further ado, here's the pictures:
I don't see us going out to eat a lot with the kiddos....

 Brian's face says it all.....
 Double trouble.....

Jie Jie loves pushing Di Di in his stroller....
 Looking at the photo album we sent him.  Trust me, he doesn't sit for long.
 Our princess and super hero...
 Our own version of the Chinese acrobats....
 Enough! I'm sick and tired of having my picture made!
