Sadly Chris still wasn't feeling well today and wasn't up to going to the Great Wall today. Madi wasn't feeling well either so we layed low. Chris is feeling a bit better, he actually went down at lunch for a bite to eat and Madi is doing great now too - thanks to Sheri for giving us some meds to make things flowing again...lol!
Sheri, Shayna (Sheri's daughter), Madi and I went for a walk this morning as it was beautiful and we went to the market to pick up a few things. I got Madi some baby food as she isn't eating much solids yet. So far she loves the carrots. There wasn't a big selection to choose from unfortunately. After lunch Chris and Madi went down for a nap while I washed laundry...NOT FUN!!!! Madi is still sleeping but she'll be up soon for supper. She didn't sleep much today so she was very tired.
Tomorrow we take the babies to the Doctor's to get a check up and then have the rest of the day to relax. Tomorrow night we are going to see the acrobats - I'm really looking forward to it. If Chris is feeling better on Tuesday we may look into hiring a car to take us to the Great Wall and Jade Factory as the schedule just has us down as shopping and going to the silk market. If we go to the wall on Tuesday then we'll go to the silk market on Thursday morning and then fly home in the afternoon. So we still may be able to get all the site seeing done that we want. (sorry Dad - so far we haven't come across any watches...but I'm still on the look out!)
I don't have any new pictures to share with you so here are just a few we've taken over the last week. It's hard to believe that tomorrow will be 1 week since we received Madi. It seems like she's been with us forever. She is so comfortable with us as we are with her. Parenthood is AWESOME! Miss you all and can't wait to see you in 5 days!!!!!YEAH!!!!
This picture is just like her autie Tina - my parents have a picture of my sister sleeping in almost the same pose - leg up to the side...hmmm....do we have another gymnastic on our hands?
Here's Madi and Daddy having a snuggle after their nap.

Did you say watches!!! LOL...OMG you should have some people just hanging outside the hotel selling them...we would get 2 for 50 yuan i think, danny came home with at least 12 watches....sorry to hear everyone is feeling bla, but most times that is expected...hope you all feel well and are able to at least make the trip to the Great Wall...it is amazing!!! Ask your guide to find some vendor on the street who sells watches, she will know where to find some...hugs from the Legers...
We skipped the great wall on our first trip too. We figured it would be there when we returned. :) Hope everyone is feeling better soon!
Hello Tracy, Chris & Madi,
So sorry that you missed the Great Wall...but hopefully everyone will be feeling better and you can go later. If you don't make it there, we will go when we take the girls back when they are older :) It will still be there!
How are you feeling Tracy?
Love the picture of Madi in the crib and the one with Daddy and Madi :) she looks sooooo happy!!
hugs and love,
Angela & Bryan
the shopping market that FOI takes you to has lots of watches!!
Sorry to hear Chris isn't feeling well. I am sure by now you all just want to be home. Rest and take care of yourselves. We are so looking forward to meeting Madi and seeing you all get off that plane!!!

Tracy,Chris & Madi
Pictures are beautiful.First time on the blog. Yet we communicate very good on the computer and the web cam. You have really educated me on the ways of communication
via the computer. I see your friends have given you good advice on the watches. The only movements and jewels I want to see is Madi.
So forget about the watches.
Don't forget Tracy you are still riding that XL 200 Trail bike back to Moncton. Yes my computer board is clean from all the teardrops.Enjoy the rest of your journey and hope everyone is well soon.
Love Dad and Mum ( my advisor sitting next to me )
xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo to Madi
Wow is RED Madi's color or what! She shines in that red t-shirt! Our thoughts are with you and Chris and Madi to have a safe and healthy journey as you begin to head home! Can't imagine the excitement you must be feeling to finally be on your way to see your famiy in Moncton!
We love all the pics! We are so glad that this has all come together.Congrat's to you three. And we hope we can get to meet her soon.
luv Darren and Deb and kids
oh I hope that everyone feels better soon
Well said.
