just wanted to let everyone know that things have been moving right along this week! yesterday we applied for and received cruz's passport (wait til you see how cute his picture is!) and had his medical exam in the afternoon. he currently weights 16.5 lbs and is 25.5" long...he is continuing to grow and has definitely developed a buddha belly and chubby little cheeks! the doctor said everything looks good and is certain he will thrive in minnesota. :)
this morning we headed to ICBF and picked up one final form and then proceeded on to the US embassy to apply for his visa. everything there went smoothly and we can pick up his visa at 3:30 tomorrow! that is our final step before we can leave. yippee!
it was also an exciting morning for me as cruz has been babbling quite a bit and seems to have figured out how to say "mama"! heath is very jealous and is trying to get him to say papa...so far it hasn't happened!
last night we celebrated juliet's 15th birthday here at hotel paris (she is one of the group of 4 siblings that has been adopted by a family from frazee, mn). 15th birthdays are very important for colombian girls and it was a BIG deal here. we celebrated with a live band, cake, flowers, balloons, etc. i will post pictures as soon as i can.
time to head to lunch. hasta luego!
ang, heath & cruz
