Finally we are on the Internet!

Sorry everyone but we could not get back on the internet yesterday and today in Beijing.  We were trying everthing and it would not work.  It has been very frustrating.  Yesterday we toured Tian Na Men Square, the Forbidden City and the Great Wall.  They were all incredible to see and the history behind them is amazing.  We have some pictures that we are going to try to put on our blog.   I woke up at about 3:40 AM this morning and Greg was up long before that.  We are very tired but we can't seem to get on China time.  China is an amazing country and the people are very nice.  They love Americans.  Greg is wearing a UT cap and has gotten his picture taken with so many Chinese people.  It is quite funny!  We are getting ready to go and meet Celia for the first time.  They moved our time up to 3:00 PM.  Veronica gave us some information about her that she received 10 days ago.  It included her height, weight, personality traits, favorite foods, favorite toys and other things.  We are so excited.  We still cannot believe that we are here and that we are getting ready to meet our daughter.  We have also found out that she has been living with a foster family and not in the orphanage.  She has also been sleeping in the family bed so that will be an adjustment.  She was taken away from the foster family this morning and is being brought here to meet us at the hotel.  Veronica said that the babies know that something is going on because when they were taken away the foster family is very sad and they tend to pick up on the fact that something is wrong or different.  They will take a 2 hour bus ride to our hotel and that's when we will get them.  Whenever we get back to our room I will try to post again and let you know how things went.
