Doctor's visit went well. Of course Sophie was NOT thrilled to be undressed twice in 20 minutes. The doctor who examined Sophie was French and she was screaming bloody murder. Hey, I think that is a good thing for Pop as he moved up on the Sophie like-a-bility meter today! :-)
After the checks we walked to the Somerset Grand and had lunch at Highlands. Sophie had some spaghetti as a reward for being brave at the doctor. We tried to order just buttered noodles, but twice it came out with sauce, so we just said what the heck.
Tomorrow at 2pm we go to the US Embassy for Sophie's I-600 interview which should be a simple in and out procedure of a few questions and answers. Mommy and Sophie are both taking power naps right now. Two new foods in Sophie's arsenal are raisins and shrimp flavored rice poofy things. Sounds nasty but they are actually really good! Well that is all from the north of Viet Nam! Hope everyone back home has a great day!

Yeah Sophie, She eats spagetti like those other Smith's grandkids, have pictures of Nikki, and Megan to prove. Missing all three. Love Aunt Tam
Congratulations on getting the passport and surviving the medical exam! I love the photo with all three moms.
We're counting down the days until you guys make it home! Mason's so excited to meet Sophie. He loves looking at your pictures that "talk" on the blog! Hugs to all three of you!!! Monday morning can't get here soon enough!!!
I like that she's not afraid to get dirty! That spaghetti sure is fun to play with ;) It sure seems like you guys have been gone forever. Only a few more days! Not missing much here. The weather is cold and the Blues lost again last night! -Ann
Sounds like your physical with the French doctor went about like ours did! :) You are two steps closer to getting on the plane! Enjoy the rest of your time in Hanoi! T, C, and E
loving watching Sophie become more and more comfortable-the book was precious.
Oh, and, because of one-way streets, it often DOES cost twice as much to get home from places at the Westlake. We kept thinking the same thing and wondering why it was always so much more to come home, then a taxi driver showed us the map and he was right! Esp. if going towards certain directions. Not saying some cabbies aren't taking advantage but that explains some of it :-)
Enjoy your time and give Sophie more spaghetti!

The countdown is on. You are so close to coming home! we have enjoyed following your journey. Can't wait to see her at home in a few days! You then get to begin a new adventure as she discovers her new environment. Get a camera ready with meeting the animals, we missed Sam's reaction to the cats since the camera was not out and it could have won America's Funniest Videos.
