Steiners Abound

Our lovely baby in our lovely elevator.


Story and cuddle time.

"Oh, hi Peter! What are you doing? Oh, I'm fine, thanks."

Grandma and Grandpa are coming! Get the hot chocolate mix made!

Grandma teaching Madeleine how to sew.

Riding around the Xi'an city wall.


They're really here!!

Grandpa doing whatever Maddie wants.

Peter in person.

Tent life under Maddie's new bed.


Dora the Explorer from head to toe.


A very big backpack on a very happy little girl.

My, what big eyes you have.

World's smallest urinal.

Sheryl shows off for the camera.


We celebrated the Mid-Autumn Festival at Yali's one room apartment. She fed 15 people here.


New pink coat.

Card game with Grandma.

Scroll shopping in the Muslim market.

Julie and Sheryl kicking butt at partner Skip-Bo.

It took a candy bribe to get this picture. Tim just wouldn't cooperate.


Steiner Clan

Worlds fanciest urinal.

(full of ice and decorated with an orchid and lemon slices)

Lilian snoozes on Yali's bed during our lunch at her house.

The kids playing in the hallway of Yali's apartment. Who needs toys when you have a basin of water and mops?
