Happy 5th of July everyone!

Thought we'd give you an update on some things...

First, thanks to everyone for their concern. My procedure was successful, and I am feeling a lot better- which is good, because Alex doesn't give me a whole lot of down-time ;)

Also, this past week, Alex met his cousin Molly for
the very first time while at his grandparents house for a BBQ. As you'll see, the two got along famously!





As for the 4th of July- Alex enjoyed some neighborhood fireworks and sparklers. At first, he was unsure of the loud bangs, but then, then whimpers turned into "OOooosss" and "What's that?" Here is a picture of Alex with his Mommom watching his sparklers in the backyard~
Medically speaking, Alex's CT scan went very well. The doctor called and confirmed the medical records, but was not concerned. She said that in the time that he has been home, he has made such gains already, that the damage has been minimal. So, she told us, barring anything odd we see, that he doesn't have to come back for a year. YAY!

Today we are off to formally submit all of his paperwork to the courthouse to get his birth certificate transcribed into PA vital records for re-adoption. Also, this week, Alex officially received his US social security card. HE'S OFFICIAL FOLKS!

Here are some extra pictures for all of you,
showing Alex tooling around the house.

ENJOY :)
