Second day with Indigo - over easy

An easy day in Chongqing – Indigo slept well last night and ate a good breakfast this morning – she enjoys congee and steamed egg. Many of the babies have colds some even needing antibiotics – Indigo is doing well but definitely has a cold but it doesn’t seem to bother her too much – except when we want to wipe her nose. After breakfast most of the families went to a local department store that is walking distance from the hotel. We got a few necessities; stroller, shoes, (did we mention yesterday that Indigo came with one shoe off and one shoe on) a warmer coat for Indigo and some more formula and bottled water. It was fun shopping and our guides were a tremendous help. After we finished shopping we went outside to wait for the rest of our group and we couldn’t stand still or rather we wanted to stand still but a crowd would gather around us anytime we even paused – so we kept moving until we saw the rest of our group then we all headed back for a quiet afternoon at the hotel. Indigo is enjoying lots of tummy time as we are hoping to help strengthen her legs which are not nearly as strong as her upper body. She eats (and eats, and eats, and eats, and eats) and sleeps almost like clockwork according to the schedule they gave us. so we are sticking to that the best we can. This evening we have a group dinner somewhere in walking distance to the hotel.

Quinn – Thanks for posting the beautiful artwork you did. We love it! It sounds like you are having tons of fun at the White Pony and with Gma and PaPa. We love you and can’t wait to bring your mei mei, Indigo, home to play with you.
