Gotcha Day - Advice needed

Hi everyone,
We received our baby today and it was very a very emotional, chaotic and wonderful day for us.

I do have a question. Our baby is 9.5 months old and we noticed that in addition to being tiny (less than 9 kg or 18 lbs) her motor skills are not very developed. She still needs some assistance to sit up and her head is mostly upright, but she tends to bob it side to side and forward to backward. My question is, is this normal for orphanage babies or should we have her examined by a pediatrician before making the adoption formal tomorrow? Our agency representative is willing to take us to a local hospital to her her examined by an authorized CCAA pediatrician.

Thanks in advance.
