Today, we visited a buddhist temple. The babies received a blessing from one of the monks. Unfortunately, our videotape ran out right as he started the blessing and, by the time Nik put a new tape in it was over. It was a very serene place and very calming. As I bowed my head to receive the blessing from the monk, I noticed that he was wearing Nike socks. Quite funny! I have posted some photos of a few other babies and parents in our group today so that their friends and family can see them too. The 1st baby is Lian, the 2nd is Bob and Marnie's baby, Hailee, the 3rd photo is of Alisa and Ivan and their baby JuJu, the 4th is of France and Marc-Andre and their baby Yasmine-Li and the 5th is Nana and Lian. It was a very humid day today and we had a storm in the afternoon. Lian is asleep in her crib right now. She held out as long as she could but is finally down for a nap. She is starting to get upset when she loses sight of mommy or daddy and cries when strangers talk to her. This is a good thing as far as attachment and bonding go. She can crawl and she walks when daddy holds her hands. She gets more and more talkative each day. We can't wait to get home to introduce her to everyone.
