Month: September 2018

Tomorrow Andrew will be 3 months old! He has really starting showing his personality the last few weeks. He loves to smile at people and if you talk to him he’ll make noises back.

He’s a pro at tummy time now too. And his facial expressions continue to be hilarious.

Andrew’s also now officially a thumb sucker, he loves his right thumb.

We also remember that this marks three months since Andrew’s birthmother had to make a very difficult decision, one that changed both her life and ours forever. We thank God for her and pray for her everyday.

Intrepid travellers, Andrew and I are taking the train to Chicago this weekend. So far he’s enjoying it, only hitch is that Amtrak doesn’t have changing tables!

And here’s Tommy jealously watching his little brother going down the rails.

Andrew is such a happy guy these days. He loves smiling at people and made friends with everyone behind us in church on Sunday.

Andrew’s facial expressions just crack me up. This is him looking at mom.

This is him watching big brother Tommy.

All worn out.

To celebrate 10 weeks, Andrew weighed in at 10 lbs 10 oz today. He takes up the whole couch cushion now and he’s nearly as tall as the penguin.

He’s continued to gain a pound every 2 weeks since his birth. I don’t know when it will slow down….

He has put on Christ, in him he has been baptized. Alleluia

Today’s was Andrew’s Baptism. We were blessed to have lots of family and friends come celebrate with Andrew.

Andrew had a big day today. First, he slept 8 hours for the first time last night! Then we traveled to Columbia for a tailgate hosted by Grandma the Vice Provost.

Andrew met Aunt Julia, Uncle Igor and his future cousin (coming in November).

He hung out with his cousins.

And he got lots of Grandma time
