Update and new picture

We got an update on Malani.  She weighs 39 lbs, that means she weighs 10 lbs more then Malia.  She is 3' 4" tall and has 22 teeth.  They also said that she recently had surgery to remove her tonsils, because was diagnosed her as having OSAHS (Obstructive Sleep Apnea Hypopnea Syndrome).
Also got a new picture !!!   Whoohoo,  I'm glad to see that they are letting her hair grow.

We got Birthday Pictures

Malani's 5th birthday was on August 17th, so I sent her a package along with a cake. I received a few pictures of her with her cake. These are her foster parents and foster brother.
I wish they made cakes like this in the USA, their cakes are sooooo yummy.
I cant seem to rotate the cake right, sorry.

We received an update on Malani today.  I'm glad to see that they are letting her hair grow now.
Here's what they have to say..............

Her current health is good.

She can pinch the things with fingers, but the ability of her left hand is a bit poor.

She can put on the shoes and pants by herself.

She can say 2-3 word phrases, but not very clearly

She is potty trained.

She knows some color.

Personality:

They call her Ming Han.

She is introverted and likes being with her familiar persons.

Foster Care/Adoption:

The orphanage thought you might like to know that she does not like to eats banana and tomato, she is allergic to jiemycin and when she is walking, the family had better keep close eye on her.

She is in the foster family, there are foster parents, older brother and another boy from the orphanage.
