More About Savannah
















I've been on Cloud 9 since we got the call yesterday. I have her picture with me almost everywhere I go. Today, we got our FEDEX package with more photos and details about our little one. Here are a few more photos of our Savannah. They aren't the best of her face. They were taken in February from what I could read on her paperwork. Hopefully we will get more photos in 3 to 4 weeks along with updated medical information.

Here are a few facts about her:
  • When she is asleep she is liable to suck fingers.
  • Holds her head up when she is on her stomach.
  • Locates the direction of sound/voice.
  • Visually follows moving toys.
  • Follows you with moving head from one side to another.
  • Knows name, turns when called.
  • Laughs aloud.
  • Fond of listening to music.
  • Responds to facial expressions of adults.
  • Quick in reaction.

Boy, this has been a tough post. The formatting was all wrong and I couldn't get the photos lined up. Anyways, I'll update with new information as I get it.

Hello,

Congrats on your beautiful little girl! Our baby came from the same orphanage...her name is Guo Jiang Xin. She was put in our arms on March 31, 2008!! She was beautiful and very healthy. All her tests came back perfect. She is a very amazing little girl. They give you everything back in your care package and the nannies are wonderful. They take pictures if you send a camera.

If you have any questions: matkowevanski8@hotmail.com

Again, Congrats!!!!
