July 13th and returning on July 28th a new son :-) We are not taking our daughters with as the in country travel is just going to be exhausting. We will end up in 3 different cities in China and doing doing tours while we are there and trying to get 6 tickets on flights with 2 weeks notice was a nightmare so it will just be dh and I. We are dissapointed that we won't get to do this as a family but this way Simon will get our full attention for almost 2 weeks.

Simon just turned 2 1/2. We received some new pictures of him today from June 9th. It looks so good and happy in them. I am going to try and take them to a Kodak machine and scan them and put them on disk so I can post them. He is a cutie (and I'm not just saying that because I am his mama)
