Roman had two to four doctors appointments a week for the first couple of months. His specialists include a cardiologist, endocrinologist, ophthamologist, ENT, audiologist, and a speech pathologist. And that's not counting his pediatrician or his therapists! He is treated so wonderfully at our clinics here. I feel like he is a VIP. They make appointments with me individually and group appointments whenever possible. The front desk and the nurses all know him by name now and will pop in to say hello while he is getting his vitals done and see which of my many little helpers I have brought along. Bobby came one week with me; Drew the following. One nurse came in and said, "Hey Bobby! How are you today?" Drew just looked at her and shyly said he wasn't Bobby. That's when they figured out how many kids I had at home. The news spread like wildfire through the halls. To be fair, Bob and Drew do look alike, just very different sizes!

| I love how he'll sleep all sprawled out like this. |

| At night he likes his arms out and his tummy swaddled with the Halo sleepsack. His birthparents told us this and we have found him to be an amazing night sleeper just like this. They gave us a fleece version, but he has become too sweaty for it. |
