The Baby Brother Invades the World of Estrogen!

In January 2008, a sweet baby boy came into our world. Logan Dean Henry was born July 31, 2007 at Fort Sanders Parkwest Medical Center. But it took him 6 months to find his way home. He was the happiest and most content baby. As long as he was jumping there was a smile on his face. He never even cried for food. Before he had made it home, Logan wouldn't sleep alone, wouldn't sleep all night, wouldn't eat full feedings, didn't sit up. But in a few short months he was doing all of those things! And we got to witness all of those little milestones. The first tooth, rolling over, sitting up, crawling, walking. I am so greatful that the Lord allowed us to have him for that. For two long years now we have been in the process of adopting Logan. His birth mother saw how healthy and happy he was and offered her blessings on the adoption by giving us full parental rights in April 2009. We were so thrilled that things could finally be permanent. He still has contact with his birth family, and that is what we always wanted for him. He is right now in those "terrible two's" and there have been moments I wanted to ring his little neck, but he is starting to grow out of them. It's kind of sad to see him go from a baby to a little boy. He is learning so many things. He has recently learned to use the potty and has done awesome! We had a few little accidents when he started at the new babysitters just because he was having so much fun playing. Since being potty trained, he is acting so much more like a "little man". He seems like he just understands so much more now. He communicates better. He is starting to be a pesty little brother to his sisters, too! It's so funny. My  hope for him is that he will always know that we wanted him, God chose him for us, sent him to us at just the right time, and is gonna keep him right here where he belongs forever! Keep us and him in your prayers as we continue this adoption process. Hopefully it will be over soon.
