Addiction!

It's clementine season in Beijing and Benji is addicted! If Benji spots a clementine, he yells "bo", which means peel in Chinese. Yesterday, our little boy had about 10 of these things! At least its a good dose of vitamin C and fiber. ;) Sophia and Benji will race to see who can eat them faster.

Josh's parents arrived last Wednesday and the kids and the grandparents and we have had a great time! Today, they moved into their own apartment, which is about 10 minutes away from our place. Already, they have taken Sophia to school and been directed by Sophia in all sorts of games and songs. Benji has won their hearts over even more with his talking, giggling and general fun disposition and the fact that he runs up to them and says, "bao bao" or hold me or screams ,"yeh yeh, or grandpa at the top of his lungs.

Benji also loves to walk around with our US phone and yell, "po po" (grandmother) into the phone hoping to catch my mom on the other end. It's very cute!

A busy couple of weeks of traveling for me and Josh coming up, but we are getting excited for our Thanksgiving feast planned for the Saturday following Thanksgiving, since it's not a holiday in China.
