Brett got back from China this afternoon and the kids and I were so happy to see him. The kids were also happy to see all the fun things Brett got them in China. I think the kids were really expecting toys because they have been talking with friends about all the things that are made in China and they thought he'd bring all the toys like Webkinz that are made in factories in China. You should have seen Cade's face when he found his first gift was Chinese silk pajamas. Not exactly what he was hoping for, but I think it will be hilarious to see Mr. Cade in silk pjs!
Maddi actually was happy about her silk pjs. I got some silk pjs and robe too and like mine. I guess only girls appreciate some nice silky pjs!
Another fun gift were necklaces with the animal of their birth. Cade is a horse and Maddi is a dragon. The kids are looking forward to taking some of the gifts to school to share about China.
Now this is what Cade was really hoping for...a Chinese fan! He has been making paper fans and airplanes like crazy. Now he has a REAL fan and you can see from his face how cool he thinks it is.
Had to laugh at Maddi with her tongue sticking out while she concentrates on closing her fan. Why does my family stick their tongue out to concentrate????? There were other fun gifts from China, but the best gift was having Brett back home!
After China gifts and baths we let Maddi open her birthday gift from us early. Her birthday is in one week. We are taking a road trip to Iowa this weekend to watch the Aggie football game so we wanted Maddi to have her Nintendo DS (her gift) for the 5 hour drive. Cocoa was joining in the birthday celebration in her favorite spot on the end of Maddi's bed.
Maddi was very excited to finally have a DS. Too bad it was bedtime and she only got to play for a few minutes. She'll have plenty of time to play on our drive.
