Day 14...

Eeeek....if all goes as planned, this is our last day in China!  Tomorrow morning we will wake up ridiculously early and take a van to Hong Kong to catch our flight to San Fran.  It will be bittersweet to leave China, but I think we are all ready to get back to our normal lives.

We started the day with breakfast, and the playroom.

 A little castle dodge ball!

We did have to run to the store because little man is out of clothes and we needed plane snacks because our guy being hungry is not one you want to be on a plane with.  Jeter wanted in the shopping cart car today, which he wanted nothing to do with last time we were there. He had a blast "driving" it around and did not want to leave it! (It had to stay on the children's floor).  I may have actually looked into buying one (knowing that it would have to stay at the hotel) just because I knew how bad getting him out of it was going to be!  

 Here I am trying to coax him out...he is slamming the door in my face! ha!

can you find the stubborn little cutie?!

After about 10 minutes of trying to coax him out, Jeremy just grabbed him and went. He screamed his head off until we got to the 1st floor (we were on the 3rd but groceries were on the 1st) and tore open some chips. Then he was okay again!

He fell asleep on the walk back (like usual!) so Jeremy just ran and picked up lunch (McDs again!) and we hung out until little man woke up.

Then it was pool time!  Helen came by the hotel to bring us Jeter's Visa...we are now good to go home!  yay!  He was gone about 30 minutes and it got a little crazy.  Jeter wanted in the little pool, then decided on the big pool.  So, I made the girls get out of the small and go to the big.  Then he wanted in the small, so we switch again.  Then he wanted to go to the play area, so again the girls had to get out and follow.  Then he wanted back in the pool.  Then he was just done and wanted to leave.  Thankfully Jeremy got back and went to help grab stuff (room key and diaper bag), but got hung up talking with people.  During this time Jeter lost it.  You could probably hear him from all corners of the pool!  That boy has some serious lungs on him!  ha!

  

 I took Jeter up to the room while Jeremy and the girls swam a little longer.  Once the girls got back, it was bath time while Jeremy picked up pizza.  Jeter went down pretty easy, so Ryne and I snuck out to Starbucks! We enjoyed some alone time even if it was late at night. And we didn't even get 

lost so I think it was a total success!

 Ryne has been such a huge help!  She plays with Jeter and is always available for Reese.  I adore this big sister!

Now we are all packed up and ready to load onto a van at 6am to travel 2 hours to Hong Kong and then fly for 13 hours to San Fran, 4 hour layover, then on to Houston. We would appreciate all good thoughts and so many prayers for a good trip!  We are going home!
