We are finally getting back to our blog! Several house projects and setting up for Isla has kept us busy lately!! We have made lots of progress and are ready to bring our new daughter home!
We received the packet giving us more information on our daughter back on November 8th. The packet contained a translated developmental assessment and general info about Isla ZiShao. She is described as active, restless, and liking to play outdoors...hmmm, remind you of anyone? Her favorite activity is listed as "teasing others". She sounds perfect for our family! Isla's development looks great. Her assessment was done at about 6 months of age (on June 12th, Barb's b-day!). She is a bit small for her age, but she appears to be growing well. Big thanks to Dottoressa K. for reviewing the medical info and starting a growth chart!
We are now waiting (not so patiently) for our TA (travel approval )from China. Several new parents who received their referral at the same time we did have received their TA and are preparing to travel later this week!! Hopefully, our agency will soon be calling us with our travel dates. If possible, we will leave a bit early to get in some travel within China. The beautiful area with the limestone karsts is just north of where Isla lives. We would love to see that area and check out the climbing. The soonest we could leave is 10 days from now! On the other hand, it could still be another 3or 4weeks. Hope that we hear soon, we want to go and meet Isla ZiShao as soon as possible!
