Day #2 with Tatum
Today, Tatum has had moments of smiles and grieving. She is not fully used to us yet. She is still clingy to Daddy, but had let me feed her and give her water. She still pushes Colin away, although, he is not easily deterred.
Breakfast went very well this morning. It is amazing how she eats! She had eggs, potatoes and some croissant. Colin, of course, ate everything they had! After breakfast, we headed out for some sightseeing. We saw a park with a lake. It had some lotus flowers and beautiful willow trees. There was a pagoda in the background that we will go see tomorrow. It was sooo hot! We were all sweating within minutes of getting off the bus. Colin was happy to run around and drew quite a crowd of locals who thought he was cute.
After that, we went to Wal-Mart. That was an adventure in itself! Let me tell you that it is a big, crazy, hectic place! Plus, we couldn't read any signs and people just cut you off or bump into you. We were able to get more milk, water and some shoes for Tatum. (the ones I brought are way too big for her. Her feet are tiny)
Tonight, we are having dinner in a local restaurant with our group. We hope to head over to Tiffanie's to order Tatum's baptismal dress later as well.
