7 months old today!

Today is a good day. Today is Baby E's 7 month Birthday as well as Thanksgiving! He was my first thought when I woke up this morning! Yesterday we went to Baltimore to have another round of Federal fingerprints taken. It was a better experience than last time, when it took Randy an hour & a half to have his completed. This time, it took about 20 minutes and his images looked as good as mine. We said a little prayer at breakfast that they would be acceptable! Today was a very low-key day with my parents and a turkey :)
We hung my mom's cross stitch in the nursery. It was made for my first birthday. Evidently the hippo with his mouth open was the very first stitch she did, while she was in the hospital in labour with me! It is perfect in his room and adds such a personal touch. We absolutely love it!
Baby E's latest health update (on 10/22) says that all is well and that he is being "well cared for"- isn't that the best news?! He is now weighing in at 13.9 pounds and is rolling over! We just found out some information about being able to send a care package to his Foster Family, so that will be a task early next week. Very exciting! So, the wait continues with good news along the way....
