About Emily Grace Mei

We have already nicknamed Emily "Our Asian Tiger" as she definitey has spirit. She is very independent and inquisitive and has quite the temper when she is hungry or tired. Every day gets better, but the "tiger" still roars occasionaly! Emily is the tiniest baby in our group and weighed approximately 16.5 lbs. when we got her. We expect that to change very soon as she has never met a piece of food that she does not like! She eats more than we do at a sitting. Although she is the tiniest baby in our group, her feet and toes are very big. She is in 9 month clothing, but wears a size 03 infant shoe. We think she is going to be tall just like her mom. We know that God has blessed us with the perfect baby and could not be more pleased! She is attaching well and every day gets even better. Recently, we went for a walk in Nanchang which was really cool! Many of the people came up to us and told us in broken English that they had never seen a westerner before. They all were very nice and friendly. They call America the "Beautiful Country" and all wish that some day they could travel to America. The children all followed us around town and talked to us. It was a wonderful experience.
