Party Time!

Last Sunday (7/19/09) Zach had his very first party. We celebrated his baptism and also his birthday--it was an early birthday party, as his birthday isn't actually until 8/03. He had lots of family and friends come to celebrate with him. During the baptism, Cheerios kept him content. He even seemed to enjoy having the water poured over his head! He got to wear his traditional Chinese silk outfit for the baptism. From church we headed to a picnic area at Saylorville Lake. He played hard on the playground, tried to blow out birthday candles, and learned how to unwrap gifts. It was a busy day! A few nights later he caught up on his sleep--Mommy woke him up after 12 hours.

Besides partying, Zachary continues to love exploring. Maybe we should have named him Curious George. Daddy was surprised when he saw Zach chomping on a worm at the playground last Saturday!!! At the beach yesterday he had fun collecting rocks & sticks and playing in the sand with his friends. He also continues to love music. His dancing just keeps gettin better everyday!

We head to Iowa City on Monday July 27 for a consultation with the Cleft Team. Please keep Zachary in your prayers as deals with upcoming appointments, surgeries, etc.
