August 10, 2007
Female
Malnourished
Siping Center
September 2009
YiLi came to the Center so malnourished that is hard to believe she is the same little girl. She has thrived at the Center and continues to make good progress.

Update: September 2009

Shui YiLi "LiLi" has changed a lot. She was always very introverted, and kept to herself so much. When we stayed at the orphanage during the construction at the Center, she was so upset at the change. She was very nervous and ill at ease. She kept close to the nannies and would go to no one else. When we arrived home and put her in the new playground, she smiled with great pleasure at nanny LeiLei and was so happy to be home.

 

Update: June 2009

Shui YiLi is our pretty little princess in pink. She is the best eater in the group! She will roll herself over, or pull herself along in her walker when she sees the nannies are feeding someone. She still has a problem holding her head up correctly. Her muscles tend to allow her head to drop from front to back. Her arms and legs are stiff and require massage every day. She has made progress recently, in that she can now hold a toy for a little while. Currently, her weight is 7.8kg; height is 79cm; head circumference 44cm; and chest 50cm.

 

Update: February 2009

Shui YiLi is more and more relaxed now; her lips are still tightening up, but not that hard. While she would not like to respond well to others, she loves to be with her little buddies and would cry for people when she was moving herself around without seeing anyone. She asks for attention and never likes to be alone.

Update: October 2008

It's hard to remember now what a skinny little baby YiLi was when we first saw her! She is a big eater now, she loves food, and always wants her tummy as full as possible! No one can stop her from eating until she has had her last bite of food, or she will scream! Once her tummy is full, she will play and play...finally satisfied. YiLi has very fair skin, and light colored hair. She still bites her lip, and it is not easy to coax a smile from her. We think she's just not ready.....we can wait.

YiLi's present development: height: 71cm weight: 7.2kg chest: 44cm head: 42cm

Photos taken through April 2009

This is video taken soon after her arrival at the Center.
The orphanage told us she was unable to eat so she
under went several test to see if there
was a gastrointestinal problem.

It is hard to believe that the child in the two photos above, is
the same child that is pictured below.

 

These are the first photos we had of YiLi when
she arrived at the Center

When I first saw this little girl she just touched me so. Her needs are actually on our Sn list.
Looking at all her photos from the time she got there to now looks amazing.
Is she currently available for adoption?

My husband and I are just starting to look into adoption seriously, so we have not gotten started with the process yet. I notice on this site that there are children shown for adoption and children just shown for sponsorship. Is it possible to adopt any of those that only show sponsorship? Looking at this little girl, she is absolutely precious (as are so many others on this site) and I wasn't sure if she was an adoption possibility or not.
