DC interview weekend

Last weekend we flew out to DC together for Sam's interview at Maryland Medical School. We stayed with Chase and Caitlin for the weekend. I got to see the white house for the first time and some other monuments.

We got to DC late at night last Friday, when we finally went to bed it was almost midnight DC time. Saturday we went to see the Mall. It was a really tiring walk but I'm glad that I got to see a lot of stuff. It's funny to see Chinese tourists everywhere.

This is one of the pictures we took in the Mall:



Sam took this one, I think it's really sweet:

Hannah, Neal and Cali, Josh came over for dinner Sat night. We ate pizza and played a game together. Can you believe that it was my first time meeting Neal? I totally thought we've already met because of reading Hannah's blog. Cali and Josh asked me to translate a Chinese story which turned out to be really sad. Sometimes I don't understand why they make baby stories so sad...
(I totally don't know why this paragraph got lost... Sorry guys!)

Sunday we went to church together and of course we had to go see the temple. It's so beautiful!!!

Then we had dinner with Caitlin's family. That was when I had baked squash the first time! Delicious! I would definitely buy squash next time when I go grocery shopping now that I know it actually tastes great.
Caitlin put Traci's head band on Enoch and they played with bubbles:

It was a short but fun weekend at DC. Thanks to Chase and Cait for letting us stay. I think we would be happy living there if Sam gets accepted.

Flying back on Monday wasn't fun at all. Poor Enoch couldn't find a comfortable position to sleep. It would be much easier if there was a seat for him. I'm glad that the trip didn't mess up Enoch's schedule, he went back to normal schedule right away!! I'm so grateful for this! Also, this Wed we officially weaned Enoch from the breasts.... I'm pumping in the morning when I have the most milk supply and feed him formula in the afternoon. He's doing great!

Sam flew out again yesterday morning for Wisconsin's interview. This will be the end of the interview period for a while until he gets more interviews (CA schools are so slow!!!).
