I was up late last night and checked my e-mails before going to bed. This wonderful surprise was waiting for me!!! Maya now weighs 8.8 kg, (that's just over 19 lbs.), has four teeth - two up, two bottom, and her foot size is apparently 13.5 cm - that 's size 6. The update was sent to us from Ann at www.redthreadchina.com. Ann has been absolutely wonderful and Maya is so beautiful! I can't wait to get some bows in that hair!

Another nice surprise that we received yesterday was Maya's finding ad that had been posted in the Jiang Xi newspaper last year. The ad was translated for us and we even received a copy of the actual newspaper that the ad was in. One more thing for the scrapbook! Now, if we could only receive Maya...

    Thanks for linking to my blog. :-) Your Maya is such a cutie pie! Did you get her finding ad through Brian Stuy? We need to obtain the finding ad for our new daughter from HengFeng.

    Yes, we got our finding ad through Brian. He also had a copy of the newspaper dated September 15, 2008. Your baby is probably on the same page. I found one that could be her. Please e-mail me so we can share more. Also, I'm really curious as to when you travel. ldatkinson@mts.net

    Your baby has the sweetest expression. She looks so serene.

    I'm also a proud Heng Feng Mommy! Maya looks like she had my babies hair (everything grows forward...you will either need bangs or bows) and lips (perfect rosebud)

    Congratulations, I can't wait to follow your trip.

    Thank you! And thanks for the tip about the hair. Maybe they're sisters! I did notice the lips, too!

    Thanks for visiting my blog. Your Maya is ADORABLE!! Seriously cute. She looks so healthy too, love the rosy little chubby cheeks. Looks like we're both going to have Jiang Xi girls.
