We went to the Alliance for Children this morning and got to see pictures and get some medical information. Her name is Hua Yu Lei and she was born 11/3/07.
The name given from the orphanage is Hua Yu Lei. Hua is the surname. Yu Lei somewhat translates into raining flower bud. Our translator said it was a beautiful name in Chinese but it doesn’t translate well into English. We will probably give her a name but we haven't decided on what it is yet. You would think that after four years of waiting for her we would have figured this part out already!
She is at the First Social Welfare Institute of Yulin in the Guangxi Province. We will have a specialist in the area of international adoption review her medical history in more detail, but so far she seems quite healthy.
According to the translation from the original referral she has dark hair, rosy skin and cries very loudly! She was moved into foster care 9/18/08 and is developing very well in all aspects. She gets very excited when seeing food which is great. She will fit right into our family very well.
At the time of the report she had just turned one. She had one tooth and was starting to take steps with the support of an adult.

Congratulations!! She is absolutely beautiful! Wishing you a speedy TA & a wonderful journey!
She is beautiful! I saw your post on APC yahoo group. Our daughter (Hua Ru Yan) was adopted in November 2006 from Yulin 1st SWI. She is almost 3.5 now. After our referral, I sent her a care package, but to the orphanage. Joleigh was in foster care about 3 months. Here is a yahoo group for families adopting from the Yulin, Guangxi orphanages. Feel free to email me @ cmparmer @ gmail . com (removes spaces) if you have any questions. Hoping for a speedy TA for you all!
