Randomness

Well, Nathan & I are mostly over our colds. I seem to only need to wipe his nose once a day. He still sounds a little stuffed up, but we are moving right along.

He had his 9 month check up yesterday. This boy is growing!! He is now 29 1/2 inches long & 21 pounds. He is so good about his check ups. When the doctor looks in his ears, he tilts his head & squints. It cracks me up!! He is always so calm for her, best behavior.

I am going to be calling the doctor here pretty soon though. He has a dark spot on his gums. I have been told that it could either be a bruise or a tooth coming in. I didn't notice it until late yesterday afternoon, of course long after our appointment. (sigh) It doesn't seem to hurt him when I touch it, but I want to get it checked out all the same. I have heard of a white spot when the tooth bud surfaces, but never a bruise.

We are praying about our next adoption. I have fallen in love with a little boy in Haiti. Mike is not so sure he wants us to get on the international adoption roller coaster. Seriously, adopting internationally is scary. Countries make their own rules/laws and can change them weekly. However, the mama part of me sees this baby & knows he needs a home. He is 2 months older than Nathan, and about as cute! The cost to adopt from Haiti is approximately $13,000 - $18,000, including travel. So, if you know of a pile of money somewhere, let us know. hahaha no seriously. ;)

I guess that's about it for now... enjoy a picture of Nathan. =)
