One Year

It's hard to believe that a whole year has passed since Ahn-Bao came home to his forever family! But then again, at exactly the same time it seems like he's always been a part of this crazy bunch!
Ahn-Bao and his Mom and his Grandma L flew in to the Rochester airport on January 31, 2008 after leaving Guangzhou some 20+ hours earlier.
It was so good to have the family back together. The older 3 were so excited to introduce Ahn-Bao to his new home.

He's Grown!

Next week marks the one year anniversary of Ahn-Bao's Gotcha to the Hubert family! Ahn-Bao was in to see the pediatrician today to get an antibiotic for a (contagious) case of impetigo. While there he got weighed and measured. Since he arrived in the Hubert household, he has put on six pounds and grown four inches.




Yasmin is the closest to Ahn-Bao's weight at the same age:
Ahn-Bao 29#
Yasmin 30#
Kia 31#
Elias 37#
Yasmin is also closest to Ahn-Bao's height at the same age:
Ahn-Bao 36"
Yasmin 37"
Kia 39"
Elias 41"

I love when kids are a pound in weight for each inch tall -- wouldn't it be great if we could continue at that pace as adults . . .

Surgery Updates

A recheck on the tonsils, ears and hearing tests are scheduled for next week with the ENT. Then a tentative date for a re-repair of his palate of February 6. We're expecting soft foods for 6 weeks or thereabouts and hopefully not more than 3 weeks with arm casts!
