More Information

Here's what we know about baby Kate from our referral:

She's a deep sleeper.

She holds her head up while lying on her stomach, rolls from supline to prone position by herself, sits alone quite steadily, and tears paper.

She locates the direction of a sound or voice, visually follows moving toys, holds blocks in each hand at the same time, looks for a dropped toy, reaches and grasps for a toy, and bangs two blocks together.

She follows you by moving her head from one side to the other, laughs aloud, distinguishes between acquaintances and strangers, directs sounds at someone or something, eats biscuits without help, know her name, turns when she is called, and responds to the facial expressions of adults.

She's active, restless, fond of listening to music, fond of playng with toys, has a ready smile, is quick in reaction, and is closest to her caretaker.

Everything else we have is in Chinese, and will be translated for us in a couple of weeks.

We also have pictures of the stork arriving:



That's us with our stork, JD.



And here's Eddie scanning in the photos for the blog.

Hi There,

I'm so interested in your journey to Kate. Good luck. I hope to follow along with your blog. I think we have alot in common...CHI, UF, MaoNan. Just wanted to let you know that when I received the detailed info, I was wondering how much was really true, or if they just checked stuff off willynilly, as they have so many babies to care for. (All kinds of thoughts will go thru your head as you STARE at that report for the next 6 - 8 wks!)

After receiving my baby, Taylor XianYi, and learning her personality traits, I can tell you that the report was right on target and very true.

Congradulations and good luck!

Kind regards from Miami
