Happy Canada Day!

Happy Canada Day everyone...we had a great time at the cottage this weekend. Matt and Mairi came to visit...Parker loves them so much...he really takes to them. There is something about adults that take a genuine interest in kids that they can smell...
We got an update about Logan last Friday....that she is doing well in the orphanage and is growing...but she still is pretty tiny. She is now 6.5 kg which is 14.3 pounds...and she will be 9 months old tomorrow. Glad I bought lots of 9 month and 1 year old clothes...12 months usually fits 22 pounds so we are a ways away from that! Her head is 42 cm, chest 41 cm, and her little feet are 10cm. Deborah mentioned she has the littlest feet of them all...I'm just reading a book called Snowflower and the Secret Fan about 19th century girls in China and they are currently going through foot binding...unbelievably painful! Thank goodness children don't go through that anymore...horrible! Oh, and Logan doesn't have any teeth yet...poor little thing is going to get them sooner or later and it's not fun. Good thing I'm bringing her some teethers to China.
We won't know for another couple of weeks when can travel...really frustrating but there you go...nothing much we can do about it but hope the time flies by.
