Our baby is 4 months old now. We received a few more photographs of her from our agency. She has some rash marks on her face and hands. Poor baby… Looks like she has sensitive skin. We will make it all okay after we get her home.

Now why would anyone put a boy jacket on our cutie girl! Grrrrrrr

• Height: 59 cm (23.23 in)

Ava is almost 4 months old…the waiting is killing us…

Our friend, who is in Taiwan picking up her son from the same nursery, just sent us a few pictures. This is what she had to say about Ava

She was asleep at first but when we stood over her she woke up a little and kept turning her head away from the camera before settling down again. She is very tiny and totally adorable.

The nannies said that they call her Chia-wen, no nickname. In 2006 all girl babies born in St Lucy have “chia” in their names. They said this is so that if she comes back to find her roots, they will know what year she was in St. Lucy.

We also got word that our dossier (along with the care package) has reached Taiwan.
