What we've been doing

On Friday, William got to meet his new cousin Drew. He was born last Monday and he is adorable! William also had fun hanging out with Anna & Alli, and swimming in their pool.





By the time William got around to holding him, Drew was zonked out with a full belly - but isn't he precious?!?! Congrats to Joey & Kristy on their beautiful baby boy (and also to big sisters Anna & Alli)!


William lost his first tooth! It's been loose for a while, and we told him to only work on it when we were all 3 together. (We missed out on all the baby teeth; neither of us wanted to miss out on this.) Well on Sunday after church he was telling us how he wasn't able to pull it, and about that time, it popped out! So he placed his tooth in his special pillow (it was Zack's when he was little) and had a visit from the tooth fairy Sunday night!



Monday he started swim lessons. He goes 4 nights a week for 2 weeks. Parents get to watch the last 5 minutes, and we were amazed at how well he's doing already. There are 6 kids in his group, and he swam the farthest of all of them! He's very excited to go back tonight.

William is so cute! I love the toothless grin! We missed Lexie’s first tooth (she ate it!) I am glad he got to share this with you. It's one of those memories that everyone remembers. We are different as adopted parents and miss lots of those firsts but the ones we get are amazing! Congratulations!

Lots of big firsts for William!

Loved the picture where he is holding his new cousin. Super cute!

He must be excited about losing his tooth. Our 5 year old can't wait till she starts losing them!

It's great that he's so excited about swimming. Sounds like he's doing wonderfully.
