What a week it has been!
Less sleep
More love
More cuddles
Less bathing
More Congee (rice soup that Oliver loves to eat)
Less time together with P
Less sleep
More spit
Less clean clothes
Less sleep
More smiles
....and did I mention less sleep and more love?
We have all laughed and cried a hundred times this week...our emotions (all of us) have ben put through the wringer...but slowly, ever so slowly, we are all getting back to our normal selves. It is going to take a long time, but we will get there, and we will find our own groove as a family soon.
We had a great flight the other day. Oliver was a real pro and took his bottle on the way up and down, and slept during the flight itself. What a champion - and so clever and handsome!
We are in Shanghai now and we love love love it (and no, not just because it has Starbucks...although that doesn't hurt!!).
We underwent the Australian visa medical procedure today - it was far better than I had feared it would be, and once again Oliver amazed us with his calmness and strength. He is one special little boy. We were so so proud of him.
Daddy got his stethascope out this morning and did an initial medical exam on Oliver to try and get him used to being poked and prodded....I really think it helped. Oliver then promptly fell asleep with the stethoscope and would not let it go. I hope he's not getting any ideas for future professions!!!
I know you are all here for the photos so I will not disappoint you all.....here is Oliver!
Love to everyone,
a very happy T and P....and the amazing, gorgeous O xxxxx

PS the box has changed - April 07 is out of review :-)
I cannot believe it! You son gets cuter with every picture post. He is just so scrum-diddly-umptious isn't he?
He really is the most gorgeous little boy, it just defies belief that after everything you guys have been through that it all finally turns out so absolutely perfectly.
Congratulations yet again, you are truly blessed with your devastating cute son.
Best wishes
