Korea-3rd Day-Checking into Eastern
We took a bus ride over to Eastern and then a 30min. taxi ride, which should have only taken 5 minutes! The first 2 days were very confusing and time consuming for us. Everything we tried to do took forever!! We were happy to get settled in at Eastern. Our social worker said we have the best room at Eastern with an awesome view of the city! We had just enough time to set our luggage down and head to the Luncheon with the Director, Mrs. Kim. We got to meet and have lunch with two other adopting families and had our 1st taste of Korean food. Very different but yummy! We got to see one the families leave with their little boy, very emotional.
Our social worker gave us a whole bag of stuff with his formula, bottles, a carrier, and some updated info on him! We got to learn a lot more about him, his favorite food(pumpkin), how many teeth he has(4top,3bottom), he is crawling and walks around while holding on to stuff. He has just recently developed a fear of strangers, uh-oh! He weighs about 23lbs, big boy!
We are sooo looking forward to meeting with him again in about 3hrs! This time we get to spend an hour with him! The last visit was only 15min. Keep all of us in your prayers. Hopefully he is in a good mood and warms up to us:) We’ll post more pics and videos after we meet with him!
Hugs,
Christine
