My aplogies to all...

So I'm so sorry that I have not been updating this blog. We have so much fun with Christian and I've been selfish not sharing it with all of you. He is such a happy kid. I hear from everyone that is around him about how good he is, how well he listens, how he is a joy to be around. As much as I believe that and can't get enough of him, it is so nice to hear it from others. He has a great sense of humor. He loves to sing and listen to music. He loves animals and taking care of them, although sometimes he has a hard time showing it to Cowboy...his love is a little rough. He is so sweet and continues to tell us constantly that he loves us, every minute that he gets. He loves to snuggle at night, and I cherish the moments that I get to put him to bed and read him stories (Thanks to Aunt Penny's generous donation to the Christian library). And even cherish when 3 hours later he is crawling in bed next to me and continues to kick me all night long. He's the typical kid when it comes to eating...living on a diet of Chick Fil A, macaroni n cheese, hot dogs, alfredo pasta, and yogurt juice...with the exception of eating broccoli. So if any of you have suggestions on how to get him to eat more...I'm open to it. It's nice that with Kyle's schedule he is able to spend most of his days with Daddy. When Kyle can't watch him we are so lucky to have Aunt Penny and Aunt Pam as a willing volunteer and GaGa and GaGas close by to stay with. Alyssa is the best babysitter, since Dragon Boat season has started up again. He loves being outdoors. Riding his bike, his hummer, his scooter, jumping on the trampoline. He is so active!!

We are so fortunate to have Christian in our lives. I was watching MTV and they had a show on there True Life that was called "I placed my baby for adoption". It was in the view of the birth mother and it brought me to tears to even partially see a little bit of what Michael Anne might have gone through. To imagine the moments after the paperwork was signed and she went home to Michaela. She did what was in the best interest of Christian and that amazes me every day. She is a loving person, who would have done her best to raise him with the love that she could give, but wanted more for him out of life. Every day Kyle and I try to live up to that. To give Christian the best life he could have. To shower him with everlasting love that he can count on. To surround him with other people that will be a positive influence in his life. He is a gift. A special, chosen child. He was meant to be in our family and I'm so thankful for the love and support that we receive from our family when it comes to raising him. He has a bright future ahead of him. It seems to be going by so fast. I'll try to do better at updating this blog so it won't go by in a blur.

I love you all!!
