Hello everyone! We are FINALLY in Beijing! We were on an airplane for approx 17-18 hrs and awake for around 30! We slept OK the first night, when we finally got to the hotel, we didn't care how hard the beds were! Of course, I had my memory foam (Thanks Jeff S!) Jeff didn't want any for his bed.
We went to the Temple of Heaven today and are going to an acrobatic show this evening. Tomorrow is the Forbidden City, Tiananmen square and Hutong Tour. We are also hoping to see the new Olympic Stadium.
Beijing is a very cool city, little crowded & smoggy for our taste! The smog just hangs in the air, creating a haze. The taxi rides today were very memorable.
We have a terrific group of families here with us so we are definitely not alone!
We hope everyone is doing well, we miss everyone! Especially our boys! Someone please give them hugs and kisses for us. We can't wait to bring Claire home to meet her brothers!
Please bear w/us also on the pictures. We are having issues w/our blog so we may or may not be able to post them. We'll try!

Thrilled to hear you made it safe and sound. Hopefully you can catch up on some sleep before you see Claire. Thanks for the pics, they were fun to see. Can't wait to see some of you with Claire. Before you know it she will be in your arms. Many prayers being sent your way.
