Which one is that?

We had a long day, we left the hotel at 6:30am, but we were up at 4am to finish packing and getting ready. we ate breakfast on the bus and we arrived at the airport to check in.
We had a 2 hour flight to Nanchang and a50 min bus ride to hotel. We arrived around 1pm and had to meet for paperwork at 2.

We got the phone call at 3:30 to come down to the lobby to get the girls. Other families were already with their babies when we arrived. Our two were lying on the couch with their caretaker waiting. She handed P Paige first, who he handed to me, then he got Phoebe.
They are much smaller than I expected, maybe fitting into 6-9 mo clothes with room to spare. At times they look identical and other times completely different, P keeps asking me, which one is that? I think phoebe is a bit larger and fussier and seems to be a little more vocal to get what she wants. Paige is more quiet and content and sucks her fingers. Both seem to have a crouppy cough and stuffed up nose.

Prayer needs:
The girls stay healthy and bond with us.

Nate has an easy transition to big brother, yesterday was hard for him.

It warms up a bit, expecting snow tomorrow for our sightseeing day.uggh.

These are a few pictures from my phone of us receiving the girls. I will post more later, we have another busy day of paperwork and buying supplies. Paige is on the left in both.
Love
