Well today we went for a visit to the orphanage where Madalyn has spent all her life at , It is also a childrens hospital and it is where madalyn had surgery. when we got there we didn`t know how she would react to being there but she kinda surprised us . the asst. director came out to meet us and then we went right in with the children, Madalyn went right to her special nanny and felt right at home they gave her a bottle and answered lots of questions that we had ,some we figured out for ourselves and some were a great help to us as there seems to be a lanquage barrier between us and her . She seems to have a very protective boyfriend there as well she got kisses and hugs and I think he bought her dinner because they fed her( he went all out rice with tree fungus and shredded pork ) It wasn`t hard for us to see the nannies really cared for her as they were very excited to see her they showed us where she slept and where she played and ate.It was very cold inside as they have no heat so all the children were bunddled up very warm and as you can see by the pics how many blankets the kids have. After she got her bottle from the nanny the nanny gave her back to Deanna and She seemed to be content with every thing so I guess if her nanny says were ok then we must be .We showed the nannies and Asst. Director where she would live and grow up and they wanted to come home with us and they where quite pleased that she is allready booked to see the doctors. When we went to leave she didn`t kick up a fuss she just went to Deanna and the nannies and the children said good-bye and invited us back to visit in a few years when she gets a little older and we said we would be back . We then went to Old town Chongqing an older authentic Chinese street with lots of venders trying to sell their wares but they weren`t pushy and it was nice to see. Tommorrow we get all our paperwork and head back to Beijing so we won`t be posting tommorow . Hope you enjoyed the pics.

Great pictures! Sounds like you had a very positive experience going back to the orphanage. Those memories and pictures will be priceless as Madalyn grows up and you share them with her.
Looking so forward to seeing you on the 12th!
