Life updates

We've already been here 7 weeks.  That's crazy to me but it's more crazy to think of how many things we have done and how fast it is all going.

We ate our first Ayi prepared dinner last night.  We decided to compromise and have some meals prepared by our Ayi and the others we will still go out for.  It was very nice to come home from work to a clean house with dinner all prepared and waiting.  Clothes were hung out to dry with the others all put neatly away.  Our change from grocery shopping as well as the receipt for our internet and electric bills were on the table.  That all sounds great but we also had to complete some our first housework because of this new addition to our lives.  We had to rinse the dishes and leave them in the sink for when she comes next and wrap up the leftovers for our lunch today.  It's obviously not as easy as we have made it seem!

We then took off to the metro and headed downtown to the Bund.  The Bund is on the west side of the river and looks across to a beautiful skyline on the east side.  We had an amazing view from the fancy seventh floor roof top bar.  The pictures are on facebook.

Our group was ready to move on after a few hours and we went down the street to another place that was a bit less fancy, not the same view, but much cheaper!  The night ended up being one of our favorites here so far.  We were in shock most of the night as we looked out at the view and kept saying, "I can't believe we live here!".  So Fun!!

I'll keep this one short.  Hope you all are well!  Keep contacting us as much as possible because we miss you all!
