The Little Brother

Heeeeeeeere's Charlie. First swim. Beyond cute.

Miss Mae Update!

We were so thrilled to receive an update today on our precious girl. These photos were taken on June 28th, the day after we received our original photos and information. She now has four teeth! She weighs just a pound less than her baby brother and is 2 inches shorter. (seventeen lbs, 25 inches). We are told that she is in good health. They have shaved her head, pretty typical of the orphanages in Southern China in the heat of the summer. I think I will go unpack the bows and barrettes! :(

We are still hoping to leave in about 2.5 weeks, no dates are set yet. We are almost packed and could leave on a moment's notice. We are so in love with this little angel and can't wait to bring her home.

This is Mae's Chinese name, Lian Jing Jun, in Chinese characters:
