Today, Grace had a medical at the Visa Office here in Beijing. She was the only babe from our group who had to have a medical due to the paperwork route we chose to take. One of the families in our group offered to keep the boys at the hotel while we were gone, which was so sweet of them. They had a great time at the hotel ... they would have found the medical long and boring.
It was nice to just be Murray, Diane & Grace for the morning. Grace didn't like being stripped, measured and weighed, but overall it went well. We met several families from the Vancouver area and their little ones. One of the families is adopting identical twin girls!
As yesterday was long and exhausting, we decided to take the day off from sightseeing. Instead we spend several hours shopping at a local market. We didn't come home with much, but the bartering experience was fun. (We're pretty sure we were well ripped off!) We spent the evening watching a movie and having some family time. We're really going to miss spending so much time together!
Grace continues to be the life of the party, and the light of our lives!

Just curious, which Citizenship route did you take? The old one or the new?
ReplyDeleteGrace looks so cute all ready for her medical. What a treat for you to have some time with just the 3 of you and for the boys to have some time with friends at the hotel.
Family time is the best!
