He's all Boy!

Wow, today we have gotten a taste of what it is like to have a boy. Double Wow! He is out of his shell, prancing around, swinging those arms, knocking stuff over, tackling BaBa and Abi and just getting into everything. In fact, we think he can take on Evie. Our first time with crayons resulted in the coloring of the bed sheets and comforter. The people in the playroom were amazed that he has only been with us for 5 days. All Eric could say was that we were going to have to instill some major discipline. His personality is amazing. He is clearly head strong and is very mischievous. No, let me make that a super mischievous wild child. And we love him so much.

We went back to the clinic this morning to have Jaxon's TB test read and it was NEGATIVE. Hooray. He is now cleared medically to come home.

On a separate note, we got a dose of reality tonight at dinner. We were all enjoying a leisurely dinner when sweet Jaxon started throwing up. He finally got up a piece of chicken that was in the rice he was eating. I have been religious at packing a good backpack every time we leave the room, but tonight for some reason, I didn't pack wipes or burp rags or tissues or anything. And remember that Chinese don't provide napkins in the restaurants, so we improvised with a diaper. Jaxon handled it all well but we were a bit shaken, And as bad as it sounds, we needed this to happen so that we could witness and be better prepared the next time. Needless to say, we asked that they package our dinner up and we headed back to the hotel.

Good night and farewell until tomorrow :)
