Time For the Monthly Update

Every month Lili's foster mom takes her to the doctor for her measurements and to make sure she is developing normally. Our agency translates the doctor's report from Spanish to English and then send us the report. We received her September report in the mail today and Lili's stats as of Sept. 28 are as follows:

Weight: 13 lbs 8 ozs
Length: 25.75 inches

She sits up with help, she rolls over, she laughs. She is presently enjoying complete health.

Although she only gained 10 ozs and 3/4 of an inch from August to September, she is still growing and her foster mom told us that they were going to start her on solid foods this month. Therefore, we are expecting her next medical report to show a more significant weight gain.

We know from visiting that she is definitely healthy and developing well, so no worries!

Sounds like she is doing wonderful and she is so cute! I am glad that you are getting updates as well as measurements. That is great to hear how she is developing. While I was in process I received only measurements on a monthly basis.

Debbie~Those stats are so similar to Katelyn's. Isn't it great to see our little girls growing. The only thing that would be better is to have the two of them home with us growing! Katelyn was 14.2 oz and 27 inches long at her 5 month check up.
