There is a tradition among adoptive families that stay at the White Swan Hotel on Shamian Island, Guangzhou, to have a photo taken of all the adopted children on this big red couch in one of the lobbies of the White Swan Hotel. Our turn came today. All of the girls were decked out in their traditional Chinese clothes for the photo. Some of them wore dresses, some of them wore shirts and pants, but all of them looked very beautiful! I don't know where this tradition came from, but it is a lovely one! Oh, and check out the photo of Gracie trying out walking in her squeaky shoes! When we first got her last week, so wasn't able to put much weight on her legs for any length of time. Now she's trying to walk! What a difference a week makes.

i think itis funny she is the only baby looking in every picture
Oh my goodness I LOVE THESE PICTURES!! Gracie looks gorgeous in her beautiful dress. That is so cute with all the babies. I think I like this tradition and so happy that you all participated in it. Later on Gracie will love all these pictures. I'm so happy that your Dad went with you all so that he could take pics of both you and your husband with Gracie.
Take care, Chrissie
They are beautiful babies.
