More Referral Pictures

These are some of the other photos we received as part of Alex's referral package. he's 5 months old in these photos and as these photos were taken on November 3, 2004, they were probably taken the day he was matched with us (or close to it).

Cute Smile!

Referral News!!!!

At 2:27 p.m. on November 8, 2004, Shannon of Children's Bridge called to tell us the joyous news that we had been referred a beautiful baby boy named LEE, Kyung Hoon. We will be naming him Alexander John Kyung-Hoon Reeves.

Kyung means "bright" and Hoon means "teach" so perhaps he'll be a scholar or teacher.

Alexander was born on June 11, 2004 in Seoul, Korea. He weighed 3.9 kg (8.6 lbs) at birth and was delivered at 41 weeks.

At 2 months of age, Alexander was described by the Foster Mother and Social Worker as liking to be with people. He doesn't like to be warm, smiles easily and babbles well. They said he's stubborn and impatient and likes to be with people.

At the update that was done when he was almost 5 months old, they said he weighed 8.1 kg (17.8 lbs). He smiles and babbles a lot, rolls over on his own, grabs things around him and moves around in the baby walker. He likes to watch TV and loves listening to music and having someone read him books.

At this point, we expect that he should be home sometime near the middle or end of January 2005.
