Our fingerprint appointment is scheduled for 11/17/09. We have heard that government approval can come as little as a week after the fingerprint appointment. We hope to have our dossier at our agency by 12/4/09 (one year to the day that we left for China to pick up Karli and Kenzie's birthday), so hopefully, our officer at the USCIS will not find anything wrong with our home study and will approve us quickly.
We received an update today with some new pictures of Kacee. We got to ask 10 questions and the social work institute answered all 10, provided updated measurements and photos. Here are some of the questions we asked and their answers.

She is walking now.

Breakfast at 8:00am after washing face; 8:30am-10:00am activities at play room; 10:30am fruit; 11:30am lunch; 12:00pm-3:00pm nap; 3:30pm snack; 4:00pm-5:00pm play with friends; 5:30pm dinner; 6:00pm fruit; 7:00pm -9:00pm watch TV; 9:00pm bottle; 9:30pm go to bed. She takes another bottle at middle of night; change diaper once at middle of the night. She sleeps well.

Sheis not picky. She has good appetite. She especially likes to eat snack and fruit; she likes all kinds of colorful toys. Wei Wei is active and likes to play with her friends.
4. Can she hear anything at all such as music or television or people talking to her?
Yes. She has hearing. She can hear TV and music, she can hear others talking to her. If you call her name behind her, she will turn around quickly.
5. Has she had any more testing since her referral paperwork? Did the testing show she had ear canals inside her ears?
Her file was submitted in April. We took her to Gui Zhou provincial People’s Hospital and had CT and hearing test in June. CT result shows that she has cochlea buildup (so she has hearing), but both of her outer ear canals are closed.
6. How does she communicate with you? Does she talk and say some words or just make sounds?
She isn’t talking well yet. but she can laugh. She is very smart. She can understand what we are saying. When we communicate, it’s always we ask and she will answer by nodding or shaking her head for “yes” or “no”, “like it” or “doesn’t like it”.
