Thursday July 29

It's 5:00 am on Thursday and I am having trouble sleeping so I thought I would share a little update. Levi is sleeping extremely well and is pretty compliant going to bed. He has been taking 2 hour naps each day and that is good because he has been through a lot.

We had our appointment at the police station yesterday and basically we went to appear before them, no questions and they took Levi's picture. When the lady tried to get him to look at the camera she called his name and Levi looked up gave a big cheese grin and held up two fingers on both hands. All of the police officials got a kick out of that and laughed with him. We have found that he is very compassionate toward others especially the younger children. One family has a 12 month old and he was crying while they were trying to make him a bottle. Levi walked over to the dad who was kneeling down and put his arm around the father's shoulder. After that he ran over to one of the other dads and gave him a huge hug. He has also been allowing the other kids to play with his cars.

We went to eat at Pizza Hut and Levi tends to get a little excited in restaurants. He did not want to be still or sit down. We finally figured out how to say "no" and "sit" in Chinese and he pouted! It was funny to see because he did not want to eat or turn around. We left him alone and when everyone else was eating he decided to join in. I have a feeling we will not be going out to eat much because now I have 2 three year olds who don't want to sit still.

We are looking forward to seeing Hope on Skype again this morning. That has been awesome to video chat with her and it is free. We are still not able to view our blog or any comments that folks are making on that. If you would like to email us we are using the following email: crystal.setzer@yahoo.com. We do not have access to the internet unless we go to a certain area of the hotel and sometimes our emails do not go out so we may or may not be able to respond. Will post more later.
