4am bagel call...

So I think that I forgot to mention that Kylie fell asleep promptly upon our return to the bus (at the Great Wall) last night. She was out cold in my arms in under four minutes! We hit some heavy traffic on the way back into town and the ride took about 1 1/2 hours. She slept the entire way and could only open her eyes at supper to eat a few bites of rice ~ wish you had seen her using her chopsticks! Then she was back out and slept soundly, until 4:21 am...

I heard her little voice say, "Mommy, my beddy hungy!" So I turned on the bathroom light, was thankful that I had brought a bag of mini bagels, the Jif "to go" cups and some jelly packets from the airport. She giggled as we feasted on peanut butter and jelly bagel in the semi darkness. Then she really got giggly when I let her stick her finger in the peanut butter to finish it up!

After we ate, I gave her an early morning bath. When we were done, we just sat whispering in the dark. I was tired, but I realized that it won't be much longer that it is just the two of us, so I decided to savor the moment. After a while she wanted to watch her DVD player and selected Adam and Traci's wedding video. She was totally amazed that her beloved CiCi and Unca Adahm were in a movie! Just had to share a picture I caught of she and her daddy snuggling while she watched (Ian was sorta sleeping) around 5:30.


We head out for the day shortly, hopefully I'll get to post tonight but I'm not sure of internet connection in our next hotel. So did I mention that there is now only ONE sleep until Caleb? How excited are we?
