Addie Mei and I have had a crazy last couple of weeks. Our first order of excitment was for her to choke on a nickel she found in the car. I heard it clank on her teeth, I turn around to tell her to take it out of her mouth and I see she is not breathing. I was driving at the time and had to think fast, so I just hit her chest 3 times and she started to cry. Praise God! It took a few more minutes for her to quit actively choking on it. We got to the doctors and they sent us to the ER to try to have it removed as it was still pretty high in her throat on the x-ray. By the time we got to the ER, it had traveled to her stomach. I had to search for it on the other end for the next 4 days. She flushed once before I could search and it was in that one flush that the thing must have come out. I had her x-rayed again and it was gone!!
We went to Chicago with a group of friends from church to visit Chinatown. That was a lot of fun. I plan to bring her there for her 5th Gotcha Day Anniversary. I hope to have my family come, but that is a few years away yet. We had fun and I really enjoyed eating at a Chinese style restaurant. This was the first thing I missed when I returned home form China. It was nice to experience it again!!
We went to a corn maze with Aunt Debbie in Southern IN. It was 91 dgrees, but we still had fun. It was so nice to see Aunt Debbie down here. Addie Mei loves going into the spare room and waking anyone that is sleeping in there. Too cute.....
Our last fun was going to the Pumpkin Patch with our freinds. The kids all played so well and had a blast picking out pumpkins and rolling them at each other. We had a good time then we went to dinner together. Addie Mei has been blessed with so many wonderful people in her life. She is doing so great and maturing into a sweet little girl!
I am going to try to put some pictures on some of the posts from her Babysites entries. It may take me some time though. Have a great day!
