Making memories in Guangzhou

Well we have had some unique moments we will never forget...some good and one BAD! Rhylan has had many fun first moments and is blossoming into the happy baby we were told she was. She smiles ALL the time, coos, and loves being the center of attention! She now enjoys playing with her 2 brothers and sister and visiting with grandpa and grandma with babbles. She did wonderful on the flight (ate practically the whole time) she loves to eat and will eat anything so far. She is officially a McDonalds girl and thoroughly enjoyed French fries and chicken nuggets. She had her medical appointment today with little tears. The weather is awesome here around 60 degrees and flowers everywhere. It will not  be fun coming home to winter weather after this!!
The bad moment was Bad!! We arrived in Guangzhou and were tired but hungry so we went to a little coffee shop close to our beautiful hotel. We had finished eating and dad came down and sat next to Rhylan to chat. All the sudden we heard 2 girls at next table yell, he took your bag at least twice before it registered. Chris and dad heard me say "oh no it has my wallet and baby stuff" and ran out the restaurant. Cameron immediately was frightened and started crying and then Rhylan followed suit. Mom and I paced by the door and I asked waiters to call police. Minutes passed and we worried about their safety and I kept remembering all the items I had in bag, phone, car keys, baby items and I worried maybe Rhylan's passport?? Meanwhile dad and Chris were racing after the thief in opposite directions. Chris had him in sight but he was a good block ahead. My husband was a hero and leaped the fence and this alarmed the thief and he dropped my bag in the middle of a 4 lane highway. Needless to say we have learned a valuable lesson!!! Chris is enjoying his popularity! Ha! Love to all from sunny Guangzhou!!
