Bliss,baptism, baths, bowing out, bowls,best news, books and battles

Bliss/a few days ago, Noah started kissing mommy when mommy puckers out her lips, mommy absolutely loves this and of course tries for as many kisses tolerated.

Baptism and baths On Sunday, April 1st, Noah spent much of his day in water.
Noah was baptized by my brother Sye, it was truly wonderful to have him do the baptism. God in His mercy chose Noah as His child, and we thank God for that. The kids, my nieces, and Noah's God sister all had Chinese silk outfits on. They looked beautiful.
with a morning at church came an afternoon on uncontrollable fits of sadness. Noah does not know what to do with himself after being in public. He seems fine when we are out, but once we are home, we have a scared little boy, who is not sure what is happening. Noah loves his baths, and spent the better part of Sunday having baths, sometimes it is the only way to get him to calm down. So, that brings us to

the third pic is with Noah's Godparents and Godsister





bowing outyou may not see Noah and I for a while. It seems home is the best place to be. To find ourselves in the comforts of home, where we can build our attatchment. So, eventually Noah will understand that going out does not mean mommy and daddy will leave him. Noah is attatching, and we are really enjoying his comical personality. We also realize, that we have a little charmer. I would imagine being cute and charming has it perks in an orphanage. Noah is figuring out, it is ok not always to be charming. It is okay to be sad, angry, and he is learning to feel all of his little emotions,and we are so happy about that.
Bowls
well I will let the pic do the talking

Best News Noah saw Dr. Olson, his peds plastic surgeon who will be operating on Noah's palate. He said that Noah's lip is on par with his best work. Great News, no lip revision, and well, we just thought he looked so cute and fantastic, but it is great to hear from the experts.
Books and Battlesonce again I will let the pictures do the talking. Needless to say, Daddy was very happy to see the battle photos.

Noah is starting to enjoy books(I know he looks stunned in the pic, but really he does :)
