First Day Back

Up at 7:15.  Todd left for work, Cameron was watching tv so I started unpacking our bags.  By 9:00 I was ready for the day, had everything put away, laundry was done, Alfredo was up playing, and I had one happy boy.

I got a hold of Neil and Amor Britt who are in the Quad Cities for work.  They live by us in China so I asked if they would bring Cameron's USB plug to us.  Of course they said yes.  I got a hold of my parents and they ran the plug to their hotel.  Thank goodness this all worked out.  Cameron might of had a stroke. 

Cameron and Alfredo played for a couple hours and then decided to go outside.  It had quit raining.  They were outside awhile and when they came back they had Manuel with them.  All 3 boys played in the apartment and then wanted lunch.  I fed them all Kro pizza.  At 2:00 Manuel had to go home but the others continued to play.

No idea while he was playing wii in the box.

All the boys enjoying pizza for lunch.

3:00 I sent the boys to Carrasco's so I could go to the vegetable market and the grocery store.  I walked into the market and instantly remembered the grossness and the bad smell.  As I picked out my vegetables and fruits I had a bunch of people staring at me.  Yep, I was instantly reminded I am back in China.  I need to get myself retrained to live here.

After the store I called Todd to see if he was ready to be picked up.  He was so we headed to the factory.  We sat there for 20 minutes waiting for him to come out.  He was wrapping up a meeting.  Back home Todd got a much needed haircut and then we prepped dinner and cut up all the veggies and fruits. 

Todd and Cameron grilled pork chops, polish sausage, and some mystery meat.  After tasting it Todd was pretty sure it was duck.  But then Cameron through out it could be pigeon.  Luckily I had already tasted it and thought it was good before he said that. 

After dinner we settled in to watch a couple episodes of the Simpson's and skype my parents at 8:00.  However, after 5 minutes into the Simpson's Cameron was almost asleep on the couch.  Todd asked if he wanted to go to bed and he said "Yes, please".  It was 7:35.  Brushed teeth and he went to bed.  I went in 5 minutes later and he was out like a light.  I went to bed at 8:00.  Needless to say we didn't skype with my parents.
