These are Zach's feet. They entered the world in the same city as Ethan's, but in December 2003. They're smaller than Ethan's, at a mere 16cm long, or 6and5/16". The rest of Zach is on the smaller side as well. He's 112cm tall (44and7/64"), and weighs 19.3kg (42lb,8oz). To put this into perspective, Stefi is 43 inches tall and weighs 41 lb. Her birthday is in December too, just 8 days before Zach's. She'll be turning 6 this year, while Zach turns 9. And they're an inch and a half, and a pound and a half apart. Oh my!
Zach has some amazing talents one would never expect, most notably his ability to speak four languages - the local Chinese dialect, Belgian, Dutch and English. Yes, English! So we'll have the gift of communication right from the start! How exciting! Also he has been "homeschooled," (really!) along with his 13 foster brothers and sisters. It seems the foster parents are from Holland and take care of 14 kids from the local orphanage as well as their 2 bio sons. What a noisy house that must be!
