We were so lucky to have one of our favorite aunts to come visit!
Cash ran up and gave her a big hug, and she is first family member to meet Griffi!
The week went way too fast, and this morning Cash was asking for Aunt emma to do his spikes (in his hair)! We already miss u emma - but thanks for playing with us and a super fun week!!!
We hit all the best markets, visited The Great Wall, Tienneman Square, The Forbidden City, The Birds Nest, Water Cube, The best parks, got massages, saw an acrobat show, went to good dinners, saw her mission companions and did kareoke, lots more shopping, and picked out a new tv series to get hooked on together (you will always be my favorite tv show friend emmy!)
Overall we had a very packed, tiring, awesome memory building week!!!
Thanks emma for taking time to come see us!!!

We had a pic just like this with cash at same age at thomas jeffersons home, so decided we needed one at Great Wall with Griffin
Great Wall fun
Ash and Tate met us there and we all had fun
Getting ready to go slide down mountain
They would not let me slide down with Griff in front pack - said it was too dangerous
Instead i had to take him on these - totally more safe...NOT!!! We were terrified a bit riding these up w/ Cash to the top - would never pass safety regulations in the US
View of slide from lifts
Griffin is a great traveller!!!
He enjoyed great wall in baby bjorn
After we got back he ad a nice bath - all clean
happy baby
growing every day
when he is awake - he is very squirmy - but also very cuddly!
