We have had our little guy since yesterday at 9:30 am...and it has been such a whirlwind that I have been too tired to update! It has been 2 days of running around from one office to another for paperwork, applications for his passport, etc. etc...and there is still so much more to do. To sum him up until I can write more later...he is doing amazing. Besides eating nonstop and I mean literally he never stops eating - he is extremely possesive of every single toy and item of clothing he has. I know it will pass, but it is really sad when I stop to understand and know exactly why he is like that and what he has done without for 4 years. He knows I am Mama, he seems to understand that, and loves his big sister. He is a big ham, smiles and giggles endlessly. He is incredibly smart and "wise" for his age. Its almost scary - he will surely outsmart me in a matter of months I am sure. It also is sad though and very hard to explain right now!
My other smart child, Alexis...is having trouble downloading pictures and has promised to help me tonight after we eat dinner. We are traveling with another amazing family who adopted a cute little 2 1/2 year old girl, and our guide is taking us out to a new restaurant tonight for dinner thank god as we are tired of the hotel food.
I will download video of Gotcha Day soon- he actually ran to me and sad Mama and gave me a hug...but it was definitley rehearsed ahead of time, still very sweet. He cried when his "aunties" from the orphanage left, which was really sad.
I do have this picture for now.
