Josh Had A Big Day Today!

We started the day off with Josh's first doctor's appointment. He's a little over 2 1/2 weeks old and now weighs 9 pounds, 6 ounces and was 21 1/2" long. He's in the 65th percentile for weight and the 75th percentile for height. The doctor was very pleased with him and said he looks great and very healthy. We go back in a couple of weeks for his 1 month checkup and shots.

After the doctor, Josh also had his first day in court. We attended the hearing for the termination of his birthmother's parental rights today and all went well! We officially have been granted custody of the little guy. The termination of the birthfather's rights will take place in about a month and a half or so, and our final transfer of custody from the agency to us will take place sometime in July.

My handsome boys, all dressed up for court. Josh wore his
"big boy" clothes today and everyone talked about how he looked
like such a "little man"! TOO CUTE, if I do say so myself!


To celebrate today, we introduced Josh to Starbucks for the first time.
He passed on ordering anything, but I'm sure he'll be trying to
sneak Daddy's Frappuccino into his bottle in no time.
