First Visit

Sorry for the delay, but we lost our hotel internet connection... so without further ado... here's Gunner!


There are a few things we immediately found upon meeting baby Gunner.
  1. He is healthy, strong, and friendly.
  2. His head is huge. Just look at that picture... his head is almost as big as mine! (Fortunately we'd been forewarned that Koreans' heads trend on the larger side during the early years.)
  3. He is very busy, as in not gonna sit still for no stinkin' plane ride!
  4. He's got a great laugh. His sense of humor appears to be rooted in mischief. His hardest laugh came after knocking several cherry tomatoes onto the floor and watching them scatter all over.
  5. His clothing size is "80." We don't know what that means, but he has about three chins when he laughs.
  6. He is playful. We were with him for a little over an hour at his foster home and it was all playtime and smiles!
  7. He sleeps a total of ten hours a day including two one-hour naps. Clearly we have our work cut out for ourselves in raising his sleep aptitude to the standard consistent with our family.



We are now off for some Seoul-seeing. And waiting...

  1. Awesome! He is way cute. But that is not nearly enough sleeping time for a baby. Glad things are going well!

  3. So great! (not the sleep part, but the cute & adorable part!) You guys look so happy together. Big headed babies are the way to go, trust me. :) He's perfect.

  5. I looked online a bit and it looks like size 80 is 12 months. How many months is he now?

  6. He is adorable and I am enjoying following your blog. Tell Nicol that we all miss her at school and to enjoy her vacation with her new baby brother.

    Take care,
