But we did get this very interesting looking envelope in the mail...
You can click on it to see what's inside!!
We got the pictures from the disposable camera we had sent to the orphanage!
I've retouched a few of them as Kai was wearing split pants (a popular alternative to diapers in China) and we thought we wouldn't be too happy if someone posted pictures on the internet of us in those; though we are quite certain now that we are getting a boy!
It's exciting to have current pictures of him. We have a much better idea now of how big he is, and how he spends his days. The nannies did a great job of taking pictures of him doing different things. You can tell though that he does not enjoy being posed, but is much happier looking when he's hanging out with his buddies.
We thought about only posting some of the pictures, and maybe leaving out some of the sad face ones. But I think it's better to let people see where he is. I have very mixed feelings when I look at these. The orphanage looks like they have very little for the children, and some of the things are quite worn. But it is clean and the children look happy, and the nannies look nice. I know Kai will be sad and upset to be taken away from his friends and caregivers, but I think his future is going to be quite a bit brighter when he comes home!
