Thank you all for the messages and emails. I promise to get back to everyone soon. Julian has kept us very busy these last few days.

It has been an amazing couple of days. Certainly not easy, but wonderful. We picked Julian up Friday night. Below is our first picture together. As you can see, he was very upset. He had grown quite attached to the man who brought him to the US and it was difficult for him to say goodbye. On top of that, he had a terrible cold and was not feeling well at all.



Although there was a lot of crying that night, he did calm down for a little while after we got him home.



He explored a little and even started to play with some of his toys.


Clearly Julian is missing his foster family but he seems to be growing more comfortable with us each day. In fact, today was a really great day. He was happy and spent a good part of the day smiling and laughing (even with a visit to the doctor).

I cannot even describe how wonderful it is to have him home. Below are some pictures taken just a few hours ago.
