Sorry For Not Posting Sooner

Well it's about 9pm, we are now in Guilin in Giangxi province, a mere 6 hour drive in a bumpy van from Nanning.  Renee did really well considering.  She's what I call a "wiggly worm", she likes to be moving at all times.  She's inquisitive, reaches for everything and loves anything that makes sounds.  It's weird sometimes watching the other babies so quiet, an John and I on our toes with our "mover and shaker". Renee can roll over by her self, and tries to pull her self up to a standing position.  She can't do it just yet, but when we help her, she can stand holding onto the bed for some time before her legs give way and I help her gently to the floor.  Not that I want to be graphic or provide "TMI" but I'm happy to report that Renee has had 3 "poopies" so far, which is a good thing.  She drinks her formula pretty well but it's hysterical when we try to feed her anything, she usually projectile spits at us and gives us the rasberries.  We'll have to work on that. 
Above all, we are so blessed at how she has taken to us already, she love sJohn and cuddles up to us both and gives us lots of smiles and belly laughs.  I get tears in my eyes just thinking about it.  We love her so much and can't believe in just a few days time how our life has changed forever. Well sorry for the ramble, here's some pictures you've probably been waiting for!

I too was waiting with great anticipation to see more photos of sweet Renee. Don't worry about the food, if she is taking the formula that is really fine. Rebecca hated solid food at 8 months and stayed on formula til 14 months. She also disliked being fed with a spoon, once she was able to pick food up she was much happier. Have you introduced her to cheerios? Enjoy her!
