Sean details

Sean

you were born on January 3rd 2008 at 2:27pm and you weighed in at 7lbs 15.93oz ( still deciding do I put 8lbs?) and you were 20.5inches long.

Sean today you weigh 37 whopping lbs and you are about 38inches. You are a solid little boy!

This week we are going to the pediatrician and we are going to get you weaned off your drug! Our God is a great God and Sean you do not need this drug, with prayer I believe you will be healed.

You went trick or treating this year and you learned to say treat it was so cute

Sean your our joy in life!!
We love you

update

I am a bad blogger but really I just love my son and want to spend time with him....

Sean is doing awesome, awesome is even to little of a word to use for his progress with us

When we first got Sean we were told he was at an 8 month language, well now he is about 18 months and the past few days I will give him more!!

Sean is talking so much now!

Sean you can say, done, hi, bye, num (mum), daddy, eat, How (howie), night,Lar, kitty, Fish ( oh man fish you say in a gremlin voice), shoe, on, please, bath, oh why, oh boy, oh right, hot dog

The other day you farted and it was loud and you looked and said "oh why" and then "oh boy" It was so funny

The other day you peed on mommy while she was trying to change your diaper and you laughed so hard. (Potty training is in the future)

Sean you love to eat macaroni and meat sauce, fish, hot dogs, pizza, hamburger, steak, potaotes, green beans. You hate cheese but if its melted in a sandwhich or on pizza u will eat it, you also hate deli meat. You are not a big lover of sweets you would rather chips and crackers. You love yogurt and you love fruit.

The other day mommy put something in the washing machine as she left you at the table with yogurt ( a food you can't choke on) well I heard you laughing I came out and Howie was covered in yogurt and he was licking out of the container, you painted him with the spoon.

Sean we tried to get family photos done but you wanted nothing of it, so we failed at a surprise present for Grandma for christmas

We did a photo shoot at home and I love lots of the pictures now mommy needs to get them printed off and a new frame for them.

Sean you love watching In the night garden, handy manny, and mickey mouse club house

Mommy and daddy have bought you many in the night garden items and you love them.

You have been spoiled oh wait loved by many people and the gifts keep coming from aunts, friends, and even people mommy only knows on the internet everyone is rejoicing in you being with us, it is great to have so many people who care about you and show us.

Halloween is coming and we went to a haunted house yesterday at the library you never cried until the end, you decorated a cookie. On Sunday we are going trick or treating with Larkin and you will be a monkey.

Sean you have changed all our lives, we love you so much and would never ever change the world for anything we are so thankful for God you are in our lives.

Much love to you Sean

Sean

We love you so much, we loved you before we even met you.

Sean is everything we ever wanted, he is a joy to our lives.

Sean you have been with us for a month doing visits and it feels like a life time except for when I have to return you :( Then I get very emotional and hate it.

Sean you surprise us every day with new words, yesterday you said Gramma. Papa and Gramma have been having a battle to see who wins and it looked like Gramma won. You also said Please because we were not in the room, usually you sign please.

You say cat, all done, hi, see ya, shoes, on,

Your fav words are Lar and Daddy and they are your favorite people too

You love papa and gramma and love giving hugs to people. You hugged Uncle Matt the other day (Matt is your aunties brother)

Since sleeping over daddy and I noticed you were sleeping awful in the playpen so we decided and asked you if you wanted to sleep in the toddler bed, so last time you slept over we gave you the bed and man did we all sleep through the night!! okay maybe not mommy as she was a bit worried about you in your big boy bed. You love the bed and you sleep so much better, maybe we will get your big big boy bed down when you move in! You love laying in the one at gramma's and papa's.

Sean we are so blessed to have you, we all love you so much and can't wait till the 25th till your with us forever and we no longer have to return you and share you.

Seany we love you to pieces we love you to the moon and back, you are our shooting star and you are our dream come true!

update

Things are going so well and we wish Sean could just move in now, he is ready we are ready.

He had a sleepover last night and he slept through the night, but didn't fall asleep till later and now is tired today.

We went swimming last night and then came home and had a snack and watched some shows then put him to bed and as he was almost asleep the sirens in our town went nuts and they went down the street from where we live so he was wide awake.

Sean is a cutie pie and we love him so much.

Sean is talking more each day saying words and we hope once we meet the speech therapist that we can get him talking lots.

This is emotional draining end of the ride on the roller coaster, each night dropping him off is hard and is getting harder. I have waited 5 years for my baby and I still have over a month before he gets to live with us forever ughhh its so stressful. And exhausting who would have thought driving to sparwood two times a day and back would be so tiring its only 70km return so 140 a day but still with the emotions its getting to me

Tomorrow we will take Sean to church for the first time.

KACI

Slacker

Well we have been enjoying time with our son.

The other night I had a melt down, its so hard to leave him. When i know he is so ready to come home and if any problems come of it we deal with it later.

This past week has been fun and exciting we have done family bbq, gone swimming, went to Gramma's and Papa's house.

It is emotional draining traveling back and forth and the inlaws are here and trying to make their visit a good time too.

Having my ECE I am very laid back and relaxed and I know I drive people nuts but they are kids, they will be fine... If they didn't get hurt then they would be wussy little brats.

I did have to say I am his mommy and let me do it, you raised your children once already and I know I will probably have to do it more and more and more.... People might not like me for it but oh well its life and you have not gone through the emotional roller coaster I have been through in my life.

So one thing if your adopting and things happen how it happened for us please please make time for you guys first and then invite friends and family over a month or two later, its super tough and draining to be doing this all at the same time.

we won't get to see Sean for a few days this weekend as they are going on holidays but let me tell you when he comes back I am going to love him forever and I am not ready to share him at all... But you can come visit!

August 4th

Man I am so in love! And its so tough leaving him each day, I love him and want to be with him all the time!!

I am exhausted from this, we wake up and we travel 30 mins and we spend time with Sean and then we go out.

Today we went and took Sean by ourselves into town and went to a few parks and then took him shopping! He did amazing and is not showing any signs of not liking us.

Tomorrow Evan's parents will get to meet him, they will be here tonight.
