Two months home


This is quite the milestone week. On Monday we celebrated two months home with Andrew. He is such a joy in our lives. And on Friday, Andrew will turn 1.

In the past month Andrew has been busy growing and discovering new things. Here are some of the things he enjoys doing:
- signing "light" and "fan" and pointing out every single light and fan he sees
- standing up and clapping
- reading books
- going to storytime each Tuesday
- feeding himself
- swimming and playing in the sprinkler or with his water table
- and, of course, sleeping all by himself in his crib (ha ha)

Tomorrow, when Andrew turns 1 we have many things to celebrate. Andrew is home, is part of his forever family, and is doing wonderfully in his new home. But, it also brings some somber thoughts. We know that his birthday may be a hard day for his birthmother and foster family who love our little boy so much, so we will keep them in our thoughts and prayers this week.

Happy First Birthday, Andrew!
