They are so cute! And I'm glad to see that I wasn't crazy in thinking how tall Caleb was when I was there(compared to Raia). Do I see them holding hands? =-)

Actually, Caleb doesn't look that tall standing next to Raia. He's a little heavier and slightly taller, but we all think they're right about the same size. We'll have to try to get a photo of them standing side by side. . . if they'll hold still that long!

Here’s a photo to compare their heights. :-)

Adorable Babies!

I'm confused though. This is obviously not the same Caleb that's Jaan's buddy?

I'll get it straight eventually!

They are so cute!!! How do you pronounce "Raia"? RYE-uh...or RAY-uh??? Either one of those?

Yes, it's confusing. You should have seen Jaan trying to figure out who really was going to come visit us. Now he can confidently explain: "There are TWO Calebs in the world." :-)

We know two American families, both have sons named Caleb. The Beairds live in Naro-Fominsk, near Moscow. They have the three-year-old Caleb. The Dulins live almost 20 hours east of us in Perm. Their Caleb is a month younger than Raia. This was the first time we met him, but his parents are friends of ours from Will's home church.

(Raia's name is pronounced like Rye-uh. And in case anyone is curious, the J in Jaan sounds like a Y. :-)

Yeah for the height pic- I love when we get to see you too!! =) Beautiful picture of both you and Raia.
It's hard to believe that she is so big already. And even harder to believe that shortly I will have a little girl just like her! ;)
LOVE you all!

Thanks for explaining, Phyllis! I guess I was as confused as Jaan.

I hope their travel went well!
