I wasn't able to post or access any blogspots for a few hours today. Not sure what happened. I've read China blocks blogspots once in a while (???). I am not sure if that was the reason, or something else is going on.

Karen took Jiaqing for her medical examination this morning. She weighs 6.8 Kg (15 lbs). Not surprisingly, she has an upper respiratory infection. We started her antibiotic medication today (azithromycin).

It was an interesting day. Several children approached us because they wanted to practice English. These children were with their teachers. They had a list of questions for us to ask them. Most of them did very well. They gave Assen some gifts. We all took pictures. They were very friendly and shook hands with us!

We were unable to access blogger in Jiangxi, but had some access in GZ.

Love the photo of Sophia in the outfit with the cupcake on it!
