Consulate Appointment

We got up this morning at 5:30 AM,  got dressed, and headed down for breakfast.  We took a large bus to the consulate building for our  8:30 AM appointment. We finished up Jason's paperwork for his visa.  Joel held Jason as he swore that all of our documents were correct. Once our plane touches down on US soil, Jason will be a US citizen!  Woo Hoo!! It feels so good to be done with Jason's paperwork. Our CCAI reps will deliver Jason's passport tomorrow to us. We will then be headed to Hong Kong.

All of the families met in the lobby for group and individual pictures of the kiddos. The kids did a great job!  Joel had a meeting with the other families and CCAI reps to discuss departure. After pictures, Joel went to McDonald's and brought food back for us. Jason is eating a little better each time we have a meal.  

We decided to venture out and go to a place called One Link Plaza which was only 20 minutes from our hotel. There was a ton of vendors on at least six floors that sold bulk goods from toys to water fountains and home goods. It was definitely a unique adventure. 

Later at the hotel, we found out Jason absolutely LOVES hummus!  There is a wonderful Mediterranean Restaurant just down the street from the hotel that Joel got take out from. It's been a very long day. We are ready to go home with our little peanut!
