I joined the November Nightingale hair bow swap, but also signed up to Nancys one off swap as well. So this month I bought and will swap four sets of hairbows for baby Wong. This pretty blue and white hair bow came from Nancy.

Baby Wong will have so many pretty things when we finally get her. Hopefully she wont have one of the really short orphanage hair cuts or if she does, I hope the hair grows quickly!

November Nightingale February bib swap





This was my final month for the bib swap as I only wanted to join for 6 months. I have received some beautiful bibs from my swap partners.

This months partner was Cyndi James, who not only sent me three beautiful pink bibs, which can be wiped ( so practical!), but a lovely outfit for baby Wong. A striped pair of leggings and a pretty white T shirt. I was shocked when I opened the parcel by Cyndis generosity! Thanks for the beautiful clothes and for making my last bib swap so special.

WWF 2006 yahoo group Chinese New Year swap


These gifts for baby Wong arrived yesterday from the Anderson family. The poor things have had me for the last two swaps and the extra postage to the UK.

The theme was Chinese New Year to celebrate the year of the rat. Sherri sent me a pink outfit, baby booties and a changing mat. I havent even thought of getting a changing mat as yet and as its quite compact will be great to pack and take to China with us. Part of the CNY tradition is for children to have a new outfit of clothes to wear. Thanks Sherri, I cant wait to start dressing baby Wong in some of the gifts that I have got for from the swaps.
