This is so amazing, exhilarating, exhausting, fascinating, humbling, delightful! Thrilling, draining, precious, constant, challenging (in cool ways and tough ways), wild and wonderful! :)
So incredibly grateful to be doing this cool new chapter of life with J! He is SUCH a fabulous dad!!! And Eli ADORES him already. I have to say that we make a pretty good team.... neat to see how this BIG change shapes and molds us together too. :)
Today was crazy full, but great! A few highlights:
pure delight in Eli's eyes when he first woke up and saw us
making paper airplanes
Eli initiating toy sharing w other kids at the playground
first bath time
successful meal times - found foods he liked each time. He's eating well! :)
Two cool playgrounds and a nice stroll through a cool city park
Visa appointment went well. We should have Eli's visa in hand by Friday morning. :)
Eli's insisting that I go down the long tunnel slide WITH him, what a sight! L
His "hiding" his socks in the bathroom sink. Guess he thinks it's not sock weather here now...?!
Taking his toy ambulance and toy garbage truck to the window when he heard the siren for one and the Taiwanese song for the other.
His golden laughter. He is one happy boy! He sure loves life and lives in each moment. :) Inspirational!
I want to post some new photos, but I'm exhausted.... I'll try, but not gonna make any promises. I'm worn out!
He sounds so secure . . . and smart and cute and fun . . . can't wait to hang out with your son!! Well . . . and you guys too! ha!
