Shepard has learned the fine art of the social smile. I hope to capture it soon. He is also googling (not on the computer!) and gurgling and making noises other than "I'M STARVING! DOES ANYONE HEAR ME! STARVING! HELLOOOO?!!!???" which sounds a lot like a cry. Not that we're withholding food, mind you.
As a friend said tonight, he's turning into a baby...to which I replied..."You mean, not a lump that sleeps all the time?" And yes. He was a cute sleeping lump, but we're starting to get those wee glimpses of person and personality.
We visited his new school today for a while and met his "teachers." I'm not sure what else to call them. They must have a lot of patience. I can't quite imagine multiplying Shepard by 7 and handling that well. He's sweet, but MAN! That's a lot of diapers and tending.
We're fairly sure he's at least four feet tall now (I joke, I joke, I kid), but looking forward to his two-month visit next week. I'll be sure and post his stats. I will return to work next week, so I'm having mixed emotions about all of that. He's been my sidekick now for eight weeks. Thankfully, I can ease into things with several half-days and Labor Day off.
Signing off now. Hoping to get a wee nap before the next feeding.
