Solution!

Ok, so I went out shopping with the Trotter family this morning and left Chris with the girls.  I found a stroller that she can sit in if she wants.  The thing is as soon as I came in with it she yelled NO.  She said, xiao mei mei and pointed to kennedy.  So, what we did was put kennedy in the stroller and then she pushed with our assistance.  This gave her something to lean on and use to stabilize and Kennedy got to be the princess.  It was perfect.  Now, if we can just solve the stair problem.  That is a tough one here in Chongqing.  In guangzhou and the states not so bad.  We went all over the zoo and she was fine and VERY happy to push xiao mei mei around. 
 
We did hear "no" at a couple of points today but I think that it was because of a misunderstanding more than anything.  She is doing good picking up English words.  Our guide is actually her English teacher (for the last month or so) so she is pleased to hear her words too.  She is going to do great!
 
We picked up some videos at the bookstore for her.  She is watching one now while Kennedy watches a movie on dad's ipod.  It was another big day.  We are off to dinner in about 45 minutes with Marie.  Another good meal I hope.  Tomorrow we are off to the old city shopping.  There we can bargain and pick up lots of gift items.
