new home for the screaming squirrel

welcome to the new home for the screaming squirrel. i had to relocate to a new blog, since china was so kind to block xanga. i thought it was temporary thing, kinda like the whole "beanie baby" phase in the late 90s, just a passing phase. but i guess i was wrong. although this good old blogspot place seems to be blocked every now and then too, but at least on a good day, i can still get to it.

a lot has happened since my last screaming squirrel post. we've celebrated easter, gone to beijing, ate some pie, i turned 31, had some parties, and went to beijing some more. our last trip to beijing was for a "birthing class". oh my goodness!!!! the whole time i just thanked the man upstairs for making me a boy. sorry ladies! the whole birth thing looks more painful than getting kicked in the boys a billion times. i told rach she should get a c-section and avoid all that pain.

rach moves to beijing this weekend to live until the baby gets here. my sister, the famous mavis davis, will be coming to beijing to be with rach while i'm still in siping teaching. the first week of may i will move to beijing and we will wait for "lilo" to enter the world :)

so that's the update on the new home for the screaming squirrel!


here's a picture of brooke and rach on our last stop in beijing. brooke is due about 3 weeks before rach.


























and here are the taxis at the train station in beijing. i just want to note that's its not even the olympics yet and look at all the cars, at least they are in lines (must have been the 11th-queuing day).
