One month home

Saturday marked one month since Denver and I landed on Canadian soil. I can't believe it. Where has the time gone? He's been such a joy to have around and despite getting four teeth all at the same time the first week or so of being home, overall he's been a content and happy little guy. Since being home he has learned (with the help of Victoria, Austin and Samara) how to clap, how to wave and now he puts his little arms up in the air when he wants to be picked up. Talk about melting your heart!





Only a couple more days of the Ethiopia journal left to post. It's been a bit of a chore to get it all together with the pictures but I'm happy to do it - it will be a nice keepsake for Denver to read through when he gets older.

Denver is as chunky and as lovable as when we knew him in Addis! How do you get anything done at home? All you want to do is stare at those big brown eyes and cuddle him 24/7!

Loving the journals,
Michelle

I am so happy you are all home and together!
