All is well with Andrew at home. He is definitely getting more playful and active. He is smiling really big at his mom and dad. He loves to swing and likes to fall asleep in it, not his crib. He has almost doubled his weight since coming home. Andrew and mom get out of the house for a few outings a week to keep sane. We figured we would do our outings before cold and flu season begins. Andrew met his new friend, Caroline Rose, she is a cutie. Maybe someday Andrew will have some cousins. Hint, hint.

The Andrew Report

We are sorry for the delay in blogging. Life is busy at the Deaver household. Andrew is so sweet and growing like a weed. Andrew is sleeping well at night, usually just getting up once or twice to eat.

Andrew had his last eye exam for awhile last week. The blood vessels are developed and his retinopathy has resolved. Thank the Lord. Andrew had a doctors appointment this week and received his four month shots. He handled it like a big boy. He is now 8 1/2 pounds and almost 21 inches long. The doctor advised for him not to gain weight too fast. His thyroid levels came back normal this time. Yeah!

Most exciting of all he has started smiling at his mom and dad. He has the sweetest little grin. Andrew sure enjoys his swing, thanks Ashley.

Mom is continuing to get out of the house and has enjoyed time with the girls. Andrew was excited to meet two great Aunts this week-Aunt Jean and Aunt Emily.

Grandnana and Grandma have continued to help out and provide some relief for Darin and I. We sure are happy about that and never turn them away.

Andrew attended his first birthday party, Uncle Dallas's party on Sunday. He stole the show.

Andrew is excited that he has a new friend coming soon-baby Ruby.

We hope all is well with your families.
