Happy Baby

Baby A contines to grow & thrive- he is active, curious, and most of all, happy! After weeks of teething, he seems to trading whining for laughing.

He wakes up happy, joyous, grinning and mugging for us from changing table to high chair.

He's delighted to gobble up bananas, pears, Cheerios, you name it! And then squawk and bang his tray for more!

He giggles with glee to see his teachers at Daycare and they are happy to see him too.

Although, by the end of the day, when I pick him (& Miss M of course) he's pretty much done. He'll play for a bit, but the closer it gets to six, the crankier he gets. Bed by 7,7:30 & he's down for the count.

A solid 12 hours & he's good to go!

I love to tickle his feet to get a smile.

Bench press him to the sky to get a shriek of glee.

And snuggle him tight to get a delighted squeal.

He's a curious, easy going, generally happy kid. We're so lucky to have him around.

Hi, Yes & Yes readers!

Welcome- lots has changed since I wrote the interview for Yes & Yes.

Our first foster placement (boys, 6&8, referred to here as Big Bro & Little Bro) went home in June & we got a 2nd placement a few weeks later!- a little girl, 5, & her baby brother, 18 months.

The little girl is Miss M & the baby, Baby A.

We're not allowed to post identifying information, hence the code names & back of the head pictures.

Fostering continues to be challenging, but such an adventure! I hope you'll check out some of my past posts and leave a comment! Thanks for stopping by!
