Awing a pic of my little guy :)

8 months already? how in the HECK did that happen? :)

 He's healthy as can be.  It's so amazing having a baby that has no medicine, no specialists, no therapy, and things just come naturally to him.  He was a 35-weeker, not quite term (although no NICU time), but seriously night and day between him and Andrew. 

I love Andrew to death, but, it makes me a little sad to see how things "should have been" and thinking his whole life is much harder because of something out of anyone's control.  I hope that it teaches him something and he'll be better (well, all of us - Elliott too) because of it and he'll do great things and touch a lot of people.

    And I have no doubt that Andrew will continue to make the world a better place-he is already doing so through you!

  • That picture is amazing.  And, you are so right about the experiences for a 35 weeker (like my DS) and our tiny ones (DD was 25 weeker).  It seems strange to be a parent outside of the "fishbowl."  No social workers, no check ups, no therapy, etc.  I hear ya.  And, DS is already using words, which really reminds me of how far off we were with DD before we got some outside help.  So happy for you and yours for a little less drama this go around.  :)

  • He's gorgeous. And I know how you feel - I am constantly floored by the things my 4 month old FT DD can do how and how easily (so far anyway) and knowing how long and how much work things are taking for my 2 year old preemie. He's an awesome and amazing little boy, but I wish things could be easier for him.

  • Love the hat and pictures. Where did you get it??
