funny baby

This morning the little man woke up talking about eating candy! Yesterday we went to pickup a few fresh things at wegman's (it is a great grocery store) and we had to walk by their big train. As we were watching it go and listening to the whistle; baby K realized that their were candy bins all around him. CANDY! he yelled...so funny. He insisted on picking some out; candy worms. So I weighed a few and he went to town. Like I have never seen him devour something before. I only let him have 2 because he is not much of a sugar eater but when we got home and were getting ready for bed he asked for them again! And then this morning! So funny that was on his mind first thing....

 

Lately he has been into super heroes! All kinds. I made him this little superhero mask and he wears it all over. Coloring, playing with other toys, outside.....so silly! But he will play out all these scenarios..."to the rescue" and "help me"

and lastly we are still not back to normal with the tub so here we are bathing our big boy in the kitchen sink! He loves turning the water on and off and still makes a really big mess, splashing.

the kid calls corn on the cob "popcorn" and he whines for it, he loves it so much!! I mean how funny is that.

what we've been up to?

We have been doing a lot of activities outside the house lately...like a lot! the zoo, the museum and any park we can think of because.....

this is what Chris has been up to at our house! Poor guy. sick, working and still every night "building" the house as the little man calls it.

and since the little man loves and I mean loves tools and building we cannot even be in the house when there is construction going on....it is cute but man has made for a crazy schedule. I think he is sick of me and to be honest I am getting a little tired of a month with an attachment that only speaks 2 year old!!

As we progress through the adoption process which has been a process but it is moving forward, we have been given more information and background on the family and the history. This week we had our homestudy, we already did one before he even came but there has to be another one for the adoption. Anyway, we were given a 3 inch stack of copied files from his medical history which has all the doctors handwritten and typed notes. And it made me happy to know more about our little man. Amazing right! That just the smallest details about his life make me so amazingly happy. He was born at 4:29 AM and was actually 2 weeks over due weighing in as 5 lbs 2 oz and 18 inches long. We had never know the truth about any of this but to see it written from the hospital makes it real.

There were 4 weeks of his life that we were never sure how he survived living with his birth mom and seeing some of the nurses home visits and SW notes about those weeks were really hard to read. Their concerns, observations and conversations with bio mom. It is just even more clear that he is our miracle baby and we are so so excited that our adoption and sealing are going to happen and maybe within the next 2 months!! And so extremely grateful that he is with us and that we have him in our lives.

science museum

We go to the Museum of Play a lot but have not tried the Science Museum because he is a little young for a lot of the exhibits. But we had a good time and he ran all over the play looking at different animals and displays. He even found a few things just for him!

a bin of balls in the physics area...

a beaver suit!

and a "papa boat" as he called it...showing different land regions and waterways.

painting

we made some cool whip paint and enjoyed a morning of painting ourselves, the sidewalk and the tablecloths....he does not like getting messy but this was a really, really messy activity.
