Baby Xavier..

Its so much more fun to blog now that, for one, I have things in my life to write about, besides what I cleaned in my house today, and two the best is seeing how many comments I can get from one post, so far the announcment of us having a baby, has the most comments, which I sort of figured would happen. Can you believe that last night I was so tired I fell asleep at 9...I tried so hard to fight and fight to keep my eyes open, but LOST didnt come on until 11 and I couldnt fight anymore knowing that I had to get up later anyways and feed Xavier his bottle... Yesterday was a very eventful day, letting Haile go in the morning, its so amazing just how quickly you get attached to a baby that has no decent Mom or Dad, and all they want is love, hugs and kisses..they are alone in the world, and for that time that you take care of that baby, be it two days, or 12 months, during that time, you develope a bond with that baby, you become their protector, their superman, and just..fall helpless, hopelessly in love with them... even though I know that Haile was only going to be with us for two days, I still did cry for a minute when she left. It was really hard to let her go, not knowing what kind of life she is going back to, but knowing that when she did leave, she took a piece of my heart with her... The case worker and I drove up yesterday and picked Xavier up. He needs to be in a home right now, where he gets one on one attention. He was very very neglected as a child and thrives on hugs and being held. I know he will get alot of snuggles here thats for sure. After we picked him up we went back to the DYFS office, where he had visitation with his bio parents. Then we took him to the pediatrician, and he got his checkup and then we took him home. I think that he still has some stomach problems even though the doctors say he is fine. He is absolutely adorable and his giggles are so cute. This morning he had a bath in the sink and smells like a Johnson and Johnson's baby. He had some fruit for breakfeast and somoe milk with baby cereal in it. We played for a while and I put him down for his morning nap. Now I suppose I should take advantage of this free time and clean up the house some. Thanks for all your comments again, and Im sure we will be reporting again soon. Oh by the way, Survivor starts tonight just so you know, and I have every intention of watching it....but we'll see what this day brings me today!
