New Pictures of Jaida!









A precious adoption friend of mine who is in China right now adopting her son went to Jaida's orphanage today for their orphanage visit and she blessed us with these two new pictures of Jaida from her classroom. These pictures were literally just taken a couple of hours ago in China as it is Thursday morning over there right now. Janis mentioned that her son and Jaida have been together for a long time at the orphanage. She also said that Jaida was all over the place playing while they were visiting--she is very active! She looks just precious and healthy too. It is difficult to tell how big she is as they have her dressed in about 3 layers of clothing and it looks like she has snowpants on. I just hope some of the clothes we are taking for her will fit her! Hope you enjoy these pictures as much as we do! This time next week we will be enduring our 13 hour flight from Chicago to Beijing!

I'm overjoyed with knowing the happiness you are bringing into this precious angel's life. I can just see beautiful Mikayla being such a wonderful big sister and of course Ty and Josh being the protective big brothers. I love you all so much. Love, Aunt Moo

She IS beautiful - and I think she looks smart (can a toddler look smart?)! So excited for you all. Let us know if you need anything as you prepare to go. Can't wait to meet Jaida!! Lisa Beets

I can't be POSITIVE but I think that the little girl in purple in the first picture is our Cate! I can't wait to follow your journey! And I am always trying to get another precious peek of our girl! Kim
