This morning I had to go and check more paperwork, most of which I had already filled out. Then we headed out for our first day of shopping in Guangzhou. We borrowed a stroller from the Holt office at the Swan and Jaden did OK in it, except that she hated it when we stopped moving. She dozed for a while so we explored several shops before heading back to get ready for her medical exam. We were amazed how cheap everything was. We bought Jaden her first pair of squeaky shoes (red with a white butterfly) OH and we actually found some Dr Pepper today in a little grocery store! We bought 4 and had to pay nearly a buck each for them, but we would've paid MUCH more! On to the medical exam, the office was close so we walked there as a group. Then Jaden had to go to 3 different rooms for a very basic medical exam. They weighed and measured her in one room, looked at her ears, nose and throat in another, and then checked her temperature in the 3rd. She handled it all very well and only cried a little. They said she was 25 inches long and weighed 7.5kg or about 16.5 lbs. This was done with her fully clothed, so we figure she's actually a bit less than that. Not too sure about the length either as she was very squirmy. Derek took a cute pic of her today with a Cheerio stuck on her face. :)
