Medical Exam Day

Today we went to the clinic for the medical exams that are necessary to issue Emma her visa. Lucky for us, she did not have to have her blood drawn because she is less than 2. A win for us for sure!

We've been working on an arranged marriage between Emma and Elijah. We love his mama and daddy and think this would be a pretty perfect match!

Because our group is so large (9 families) we spent several hours getting everyone in with the doctors. The babies all were amazing but we were all thankful to leave that building!

She is LOVING her daddy!

She is seriously a fabulous baby. We are so thankful for her go with the flow attitude and happy little personality.

After lunch, a few of us went to the pearl market. It was an experience for sure as this was the first time we went out without a guide. I have never seen anything like the markets here...6 floors with hundreds of booths on each floor. It's seriously overwhelming and crazy.

Getting a taxi was a bit challenging as well, but we crammed in and made it back to the hotel in one piece.

We bought each of our girls a pearl necklace that we will give them on their wedding days.

Our hotel is pretty swanky but I'm not really sure why there is a large window between the bedroom and bathroom. I guess so you can watch tv while taking care of your business in the bathroom? 

Tomorrow we are going to the supermarket (which is like a Walmart but with multiple levels. It even has an escalator for your buggy) and we are also going to the zoo.  I love a zoo so I am pretty pumped!!!
