Tobias

Here is my promised update on Tobias.   He is doing GREAT!  He is the most awesome little boy ever if I do say so myself! And he is MY SON!  I can't imagine life with out him!  I could write a book about him!  He goes with me to take the other kids to school and he wears his back pack and he wants to go to school so bad! Until I get him a dental, eye and physical though he can't be enrolled. But he will do great!  He understands a lot of what I am saying. He knows "potty" and "eat". He is in fact potty trained! While in Bulgaria I was not so sure...  He can say Mommy, Daddy and Monkey. He can repeat just about anything clear as a bell so maybe his speech will be an easy thing!  He is learning signs very fast and he can be so sweet and gentle when he chooses...  He will pat my face and say some thing in bulgarian to me while looking lovingly at me. He is the greatest little praise dancer on the planet!  He can also be quite the little stinker.  When he is doing something he knows not to do he will stick that tongue out and do a little sassy dance which I try to remain stern and just smile inside...(hee hee)!  He is all boy and while we were outside I chased him all over the yard trying to get a good picture of him but he was too busy for pictures.  He would not stop and smile for anything!  He eats very well but he will over eat and then throw up if I let him eat too much.  He is quickly becoming the wiggles biggest fan!  He has this little giggle that I just love and he is constantly trying to help me with everything. He folds (well its not the neatest job of it) his blanket and puts his pillow on top of it. He insists on wearing shoes if he is awake and if I put his shoes where he can't get to them he will wear mine or Daddy's or really any shoes he can find.  He found a hat that he wears around and it just looks so darn cute! I need to get a picture of it!  He can be too rough at times and some times he throws toys and if he doesn't get his way he will stomp his foot and slink done and refuse to cooperate with me.  He will argue with me (In Bulgarian).  This boy loves bread! I mean like ice cream he loves bread. We were in the bakery section in Walmart and he literally drooled all over his shirt! I buy him bread for treats!  I don't give any of the kids much sugar but he seems fine with that just give him bread! (yes I know bread is carbs and the body converts it to sugar....)  He gobbles down oatmeal and pasta. He is not big on pizza but will try!  I have another post coming on how he got loose and ran through the Charlotte airport... (teaser).  In short (too late for that...) This boy was created for our family and he is so happy! He is really a very special boy to go through a huge change like this and take it all in stride!  I just love this little fella!
