Checking in

It seems like it has been awhile since I've posted so I thought I better check in and let you know what was going on. Not too much new here which is good news. We have been home 2 months and our little one is now 9 months old. This weekend he started to scoot. He hasn't been too busy this week getting into things, but the time is coming. (And fast I do believe) It is amazing to watch him respond to familiar faces vs strangers. He doesn't cry, but gets a look on his face and certainly searches for Dad, Mom, Micala, or Lexi. It is great to see he has attached to us as that was such a concern since he has had so many caretakers in his short life. He used to smile at everyone. Now he is more reserved on his smiles. He is still very happy, but there is true emotion behind the smiles.

The other day I tried making homemade baby food. I thought I could try and save a bit of money. It was actually enjoyable. Lexi was a great helper. We didn't even get everything done and the blender died. Too bad we borrowed the blender so now our "cheap baby food" has now turned into replaced a blender for a friend. So it goes.

Kobe is working on some new teeth. He has 2 on the bottom. The top gums are so red and swollen. Yesterday he was very out sorts. I wasn't sure if he was just getting spoiled or not. I feel bad b/c here he was hurt and I thought maybe he was just being naughty. Oops! So hard to know.

The summer is getting into full swing and we are busy, busy. This little man has brought so much joy to our lives in the 2 months he has been here. He really is a perfect fit for our family. We love him so much!!!!!
