Her Beginnings
She was found at the Gate of the Civil Affairs Bureau of Yanping District of Nanping City on October 9, 2007 at 2 months old with a milk bottle and a red note paper of her DOB. During her admission exam she was found to have Congenital Heart Disease, otherwise was generally healthy. In the beginning she was not accustomed to life in the orphanage, was very upset, cried noisily, did not want to drink milk with a bottle. In about two weeks with the excellent care of the caretakers she started to become much quieter and slowly started became accustomed to life in the orphanage.

Her measurements upon admission were:
Height: 19 inches
Weight: 9 lbs
Head: 35 cm

They named her the beautiful name of “Yinying” for the hope that she would be beautiful and lovely.

At Referral they describe her as:

Introverted, timid & shy with quick reaction

Closest to caretakers

Walks holding on to rails

Can say 3-5 words, such as ‘aunt’ and ‘mom’

Like objects with voice
(We are guessing these are toys that talk)

Favorite Food: steamed eggs
(not sure how to make those)

Deep Sleeper (Yeah!)

Likes being companied and talked too (that is a good thing, with all our family being our neighbors, there isn’t a quiet moment to be had.)

At about 19 months of age she was:
Height: 29 inches
Weight: 19 lbs
Head: 46 cm
