Dominic's Homecoming Countdown

9. Dominic went to visit his Aunt Meg in her new house. It is very, very cute . . . he can't wait to play in her nice big basement!

8. Because he loves water so much and gets dirty so first, his Nana gave him a kitchen sink bath . . . he LOVED it!

7. Dominic spent his first night without us! He slept over at Grandmom and PopPop's while we were at a wedding with our friends.

6. Without ANY help, Dominic can make it up our entire flight of stairs!

5. This little water-bug graduated from his tub seat and now takes a bath without any restraints.

4. Dominic had his very first haircut! He was very well-behaved but looked so sad. He looks so handsome with his new cut!

3. While wearing his adorable "Proud to be Guatemalan and American" outfit, Dominic celebrated his very first Fourth of July while visiting the beach.

2. Dominic stayed up very late to see delayed fireworks but ended up falling asleep after only a few big booms.

1. Dominic celebrated his 10 month birthday and surpassed the 3 month mark of being home with his forever family! We love you, Dominic!

I'm sure that I missed a few things but the general idea is that he is doing great and keeping us busy. He is making lots of friends and developing quite the personality! Today we are on our way to an appointment at immigration to apply for his new Certificate of Citizenship. I don't think that this adoption paperwork will ever end!

Congratulations to my friends Kathy and Rick on the birth of their beautiful little girl, Kayla. It won't be long until Meredith and Kim have their little ones as well! Please keep Angel and Stacy in your thoughts as they are both facing some difficult times.

Happy Fourth of July! Hope that everyone is having a great summer!
