We haven't received any updates yet, but another family was in Shanghai this week finalizing their adoption and they were kind enough to take some photos of other children they saw there. We found a picture of Kaia in there! We are expecting to travel in about 5 weeks.

We are almost there! We have some documents being dropped off today at the US Embassy in China which take about 2 weeks for processing. Then we wait 1-4 weeks for China to send us an official letter inviting us to come and pick up Kaia, with 3 weeks being the average wait time. Once we receive that we schedule our appointment with the embassy and arrange our travel. As of right now, we expect to leave in about 6 weeks or so.
