This post is a couple of days late, Day 8 was December 23, 2010. Today we walked to a clinic to have Maggie’s medical exam. When we arrived it was FULL of people seeking medical attention. We were relieved to be taken to an empty room in the back just for adoptive families. The kids took turns seeing 3 different doctors. Each one examined Maggie for about 30 seconds. That was it! We were free to go. She weighs 19.5 lbs with all her cloths on and a toy in her hand! She is tiny. 12 mo clothes fit, 12-18mo clothes are a little big.
Keeping Maggie happy required snacks. She is a messy eater.
Later we went to Guangzhou Botanical Gardens.

Maggie loves swinging from our arms!
A teapot is traditionally passed to a couple on their wedding day symbolizing ongoing generations.
Daddy and Maggie watch the fish.
At dinner JM holds the pigeon head. They serve their roast fowl with the head!
That sweet girl's happy face is the best Christmas gift of all!!
