New Blog

We'll be moving over here, if you're interested in keeping up with our post-adoptive life.

Year in Review

It's time to shut down this adoption blog -- mission completed -- and we'll continue on with Martin-Spisak musings in another thread soon. But as a celebration to the year gone by, here's a 10 min. video, if you've got the time.

Much love and thanks for the support.

But still a clutz

But, I have to say that he's still a total clutz. The skinned nose and lip were because of TWO face plants while running down the driveway. We're starting a "stitches pool" if anyone is interested in guessing the date for his first emergency room visit...

 

Smiling Boy

We're seeing a lot more of this smile now. It is remarkable how quickly he is transitioning to the mad world that is the Martin-Spisaks. We've found that he goes through stages very quickly. For instance, at his first pediatrician's appointment back in early November she said that, he should be climbing up on chairs on his own. Well, he must have understood (okay, not really) because within a day he was doing just that, and now pushes chairs around the house and stands on them, just to prove that he can do it. And he's getting pretty good with the chainsaw too. If only I could get him to stack the wood neatly!
