What a difference a couple of weeks makes! Phillips is doing sooo much better. He has such a little personality...quiet different than the terried screaming baby we first met. He is blossoming into a toddler. Here are some great things that have happened since we came home:
1. Phillips walks! He is still a momma's boy and wants to be on my hip A LOT, but we've seen huge improvements. He can go down one step without flipping over and can go up steps while holding onto to someone.
2. He is completely off of bottles and can drink very well from either a sippy cup or a regular cup without a lid. He still LOVES super hot drinks and begs for sips of my coffee every morning.
3. He is getting used to dogs! He still doesn't really like our dog, Sigma, but is petting some of the neighborhood dogs and calls every moving thing "doggy"!
4. He is eating! Loves fresh fruit, finally eating meat, and has discovered popsicles.
5. Favorite stuffed animal is no longer Pleasant Goat, but has been replaced by ELMO!

Getting to Know you
Here's what we know:
Phillips weighs 32 pounds
Head circum. = 19.5 inches!
Favorite foods - apples, bread, noodles, blueberry smoothies, yogurt, HOT drinks, oatmeal, Cheez-its, bananas, cheese, cinnamon toast, cereal,turkey, rice, Sobe (thx to Marvin...gotta love having students around who think it's cute to give him sugary drinks)
Despises - broccoli, grean beans, any type of sauce
Favorite place to hang out - in the sling, wrapped in mommy's arms
First words - momma, daddy, brobro, nana, yogurt, byebye
Funny thing he does - rolls his eyes
Favorite game - peek-a-boo
Not sure of - dogs
Loves to play in the water
Favorite music- mother's heartbeat and Jimmy Buffett
Favorite thing to play with - momma's cell phone
Has discovered that Chas and Nancy keep a jar of Smarties next door for him and his brothers!
Attached to his Lovie - a blue soft blanket from the staff at Puckett's Mill Elem.
Knows how to walk - but prefers not too
Learning how to climb steps, one at a time, one foot leading, holding on to someone
Misses his best friend, Miri, who was our "hotel" neighbor in China...can't wait till July when we can all be together again!
Loves his brothers, but not ready to share food with them.
Is potty trained - thank you Jesus!
Has brought more joy to our family than we could have ever imagined :)
