Apparently there was a devastating earthquake here yesterday. Although we are closer to the epicenter than Beijing is, we didn't feel a thing. We're all safe and sound, and looks like the other folks in our travel group who are in different provinces are also fine (and were equally oblivious).
No shrinking violet, our Kate is feeling quite comfortable with us. Her favorite activity is bouncing the beach ball off of Dad's head and then quickly ducking down behind the bed and laughing. She also enjoys chasing big brother down the hallway of the hotel to and from the elevator. And this morning she and I looked through one of her new books, pointing to the different objects and saying the names (me in English, Kate in Chinese). She also went through the alphabet with me, repeating most of the letters.

Fabulous news all the way around! Sounds like Kate is fitting right in with the Magnificent MacKenzies!!!
Huzzah! You guys are doing GREAT! Huge smiles all around.
Hooray! That is wonderful that Kate is settling right in. Glad you are safe, and even unrattled by the event.

Darling Alex,
Nana needs news from you! Whilst all are involved with Kate, how are you doing? Write Nana with your thoughts.
Love Nana
Sounds like Kate is the perfect fit for the crazy McKenzie crew. Alex, it sounds like you have the big brother roll down quite well already. I'll make sure Jake and Sam don't teach you any of their tricks.
Kate sounds so sweet and charming, we can't wait to see photos of all of you together. Your running commentary has kept me enthralled, and I think of you and that sweet little girl all the time. Came down at 2 am this morning, just to see whether there had been a new posting from you.
Relieved that all are well and not affected by the earthquake. Keep us posted, and continue to enjoy the happiness of a family of four.
Love, Dad
Wonderful news! We are just so happy for your entire family! Glad all is going well.
Glad things are going so well Yvette.
