Babyhawk Oh snap!

No,  that title isn't a comment,  it's my new baby carrier!!!  Tay and I got home early this afternoon and it had been delivered by UPS and was sitting on our front porch. If you're curious about them, here's their website:  http://www.babyhawk.com/Shop/DesignCenter/.  I had heard about them on the Korean Forum.  I had read where lots, if not all the moms had baby carriers when they went to pick up their children.  Actually,  I think it's manditory.  I've read where it's very important for bonding and attachment, and for most children in Korea, they are carried this way.

At babyhawk.com you can pick out your own fabric and trim for it to be made from.  I've read so much about different carriers from all the moms, and this one stood out the most.    I love the colors, it is so unique.  I tried it on, but seems weird without a child in it.  There was no one here to model it for me besides Tay and she's too small for it to look right, so my kitchen chair had to do.
There were soooo many different fabrics to choose from, it was really hard to pick just one!
  This is how it's made, it's all adjustable, everywhere.  I sure hope it's as comfy as it looks!
You can wear it on the  front or on your back.  It'll fit, both Mike and me.  I sure hope Aiden likes it, it may take some getting use to, but I've heard all kids like it after they get use to it.   We'll see.....

Also received  some good news this afternoon.  I checked email and Dr. Plemmons, our IAP doctor at Vanderbilt left an email response to Aiden's Well Baby Check we received a few days ago.


"Hi, Mr. and Mrs. Lemmons,
Sorry for the delay in getting back to you with this, I’m playing catch up from vacation. The new growth points on Gim Yeong-Min all look fine. Length and weight are all still within about the 50th percentile as well as head circumference. No changes from previous tracking on the growth chart. And the developmental milestones reported also seem to be on the right track, no significant delays noted or reported. Keep us posted as new info arrives."

Awesome news!  Nothing new to report, only that he's doing just fine.  Not to mention the new pictures,  he is just a cutie!  Now if only we could hear something about the Emigration Permit. Nope, I haven't forgotten, nor will I till I see or hear the words EP approved!  Then we can start making some plans around here!
