Happenings

It has been a while since I have updated. Where do the days go?

Where do I start? Garrett made another transition last week at daycare. He moved to the toddler room. He loves it. He has so much fun with the bigger kids. He was defiantly ready. Mom and Dad were not so ready but Garrett was. He had a great first week. But with a new room comes new germs. :-( Garrett was sick by Sunday night. Mike stayed home on Monday and I stayed home on Tuesday. Garrett was feeling much better by Tuesday night. Today he was back to himself.

Today Garrett had his 6 month post adoption check up at the U of M. He was such a trooper. He is doing really well and for the most part is all caught up. He had to get some more labs done and the nurse was great. She had him so engaged with bubbles he never knew he got stuck with a needle. I love the U they are so great at answering adoption related questions. Garrett regular doctor often does not have an answer. He does do a good job tho. We just had some very specific concerns and the U really helped us.

Today for some reason I just could not get Garrett birth mom out of my head. I think of her everyday but today was different. I watch our little boy play,explore,cry,laugh. He is meeting so many new milestones. I wish I could share them with her. I so hope she will check his file in Korea and maybe even ask for some contact. We are truly blessed...


Other fun news. We finally finished our reapplication paperwork. I took us a month to write the self studies, gather all the doctors letters, insurance letters and get new physicals(They will probably expire before we get a referral.) Mike will be dropping it off tomorrow. Let the rollercoster begin. I think this time will be a little easier since we have Garrett to keep us busy and on our toes. We are very excited to start the process again.
