First of all, we are planning to bless Griffin on the first Sunday in May, which is the 6th. We're really looking forward to the adoption finalization and finally having everything taken care of.

Things are going really well at home. The kids seem to be happy and healthy. Griff just turned 6 months old and is pretty excited about it. In fact, on the day that he turned 6 months old he woke up at about 4 am. The funny thing about it was that he was really, really happy. He was just laying in his crib giggling and playing with one of the toys that we had in there. (Of course, he no longer gets to sleep with his toys.) I think he was mostly excited to get to eat solid food. He and Lily are both on solids now, and doing pretty well. They're both adjusting to solids, but they seem to enjoy it. They have sitting up mastered now. They're also becoming a little more nervous around people that they don't know. And Melissa is basically their prisoner in that as soon as she tries to move from where they are they get pretty wound up. Other than when they see Melissa leave, they are pretty happy. They are a lot of fun and they like to play and smile and laugh.
