Height and Weight Update

Today we received what I hope will be our last height and weight update. I am hopeful that at this time next month, my dad and I will be in Vietnam and will be able to see for ourselves how big he is getting. He is now 27.6 inches long and weighs 16.76 lbs. It is good to know that he continues to grow. That means he must be well taken care of and eating well.

He's getting So big already! Our oldest was only 17 lbs. when we received her in China at 12 mos. She was a bitty one.

Can't wait to see you with your beautiful boy. I hope and pray it is very, very soon!!!! :)
