It’s still September 9.   We got off the bullet train at the correct stop (thankfully) and went to look for our guide.   We stood in a courtyard for about half an hour until our guide showed up.   He is so kind and apologetic.   He said something about traffic or a different train station…I’m not really sure, but it doesn’t matter.   As we road to our hotel in Jinan, I asked him what time we would meet our children tomorrow (Monday).   He very calmly said, well you all will meet him about 4pm today!   What?!!!   That was in two hours!!!   What a surprise!   When we got to our hotel our rooms weren’t ready yet and we were told they would be ready in one hour.   So I started to get nervous because I”m about to meet my son and we don’t even have a room ready yet.   We finally got one room and then we discovered that the lock/door knob separating our adjoining rooms was broken!   So then we had a worker in o...

Sunday our friends from church gave Cooper a baby shower-a double shower for our new friend Sophie too! Yes our friends Christy and Chad had their precious little Sophie the Saturday before Cooper made his grand entrance. We had a fun cookout complete with hamburgers, hot-dogs, and chicken! The kids ran around and the adults got to talk...yes even I got to communicate with someone over the age of 1. Max even made up his own game by filling daddy's cup with ice from the drink bucket. Wow did he have fun making that mess. Our friends are wonderful! They gave us a wonderful party and special gifts for Cooper. He will be styling in all his new cloths this summer!
