Click on the picture to enlarge. The one of her bare bottom was taken on 7/6/06, as for the others, I have no idea...I'm guessing she is about 5-6 months old in these pics. She just turned 7 months old. I'm hoping she'll be home by Thanksgiving!!!
Here is what I know so far (I'll get the rest of the translation tomorrow).
Name: Eliza Michelle ZhouRan
DOB: February 20, 2006
Weight: 5.5 lbs. at birth and 12 lbs at 5 months old
Province: Neimenggu (Inner Mongolia)
Interesting Details About Eliza:
She can crawl. She is a deep sleeper, but from what I can gather she is up all through the night. She sucks her fingers. She has a ready smile and laughs aloud.
Interesting Details About Eliza's Mamma:
I am so in love and ready to hop on a plane this very moment!!!!

Congratulations on your gorgeous new daughter! As you know, we have something in common...we both have daughters from Inner Mongolia. I could be wrong, but Eliza looks Mongolian, not Han. Sydney is also ethnically Mongolian. Everywhere we went in China, people would tell us "Not Han." We'd smile and say "Mongol." "Ahh, Mongol. Big baby" was the typical response. I bet you have another big baby on your hands!
Sydney was from BaoTou, but we spent most of our time in Hohhot, which you will also. I have tons of info. to share with you about IM and there's also an IM Yahoo Group. We're small since there have been so few adoptions from IM, but active. You can e-mail me at hmelom@yahoo.com.
Huge Congratulations to you Tiffany!! I'm so incredibly happy for you. What a great Christmas present you'll have this year!!
Following the journeys of those that go before us makes this wait so much easier...:)
You two look just like each other! We couldn't get over the resemblance. She truly is your baby. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful!
Congratulations! Let this new adventure begin. Enjoy the trip,let it all soak in. as a BTDT Mom to a little one from Anhui, your life adventure has just begun! Enjoy your new daughter,enjoy your life together. God Bless.
What wonderful news. This is so exciting. She's a beautiful little girls. As Dr Seuss says "oh the places you'll go and the adventures you will have"! It finally makes it real to see someone whose blog I have followed get their referral. Blessings for a safe journey to you and Miss Eliza! Sherry McCormick (Jenny's mom/Abby's Meema)
