*put on your walking shoes*


{we got Oliver's June well baby check up this week! not a whole lot has changed since last month. he's just a little bit taller and a tiny bit lighter. the biggest change is that he is now walking with the help of others! it explains why he lost a couple ounces. our little guy is going to be walking for sure by the time he comes home!   a shoe fitting is hopefully in our near future. it's exciting to know he's going to start walking soon but sad at the same time. to me, it's a huge milestone that i feel like we are missing. like b says though, there are so many more milestones that we are meant to be apart of. but oh how i wish i could see those little feet and kiss those tiny toes!}

 {the one thing we did notice was that his report was dated last tuesday. which meant he had his wbc earlier then normal. he typically has them on the second friday of every month. we knew there was little chance that our second package had made it to the agency in Korea before last tuesday morning. oh well. it's too bad the agency doesn't call the foster family to let them know there's a package. i assume he will just get this last package and his third one (we will be sending on monday) at his july appointment. even more for him and his foster mom to see and use!}

dana, you better start doing some cardio if you aren't already! it sounds like oliver's going to be a mover and a shaker!
cb has those exact same shoes and i am sad he won't fit into them in the fall...oh well, just another reason to buy more cute shoes for him!

so glad you got another update! i remember in noah's ( we didn't get too many ) it said he was standing on his own, so we didn't even think he'd be walking when he got here. boy were we wrong! the kid was practically running his first day home! :)

You've got a quick one! Hee hee. B is right - there are soooo many (believe me!) milestones you will get to be part of for the REST of his life ... but I understand being sad about the ones you are missing. It's OK to feel a little bummed, too. I know I did at the time.

Sounds like Ollie is going to keep up with Spencer with NO problem!!! I was sad about the milestones we missed as well. But just remember, you'll still have *your* firsts with him. The first time he walks to YOU, the first time YOU feed him, and so on...
