Lucas and his family

Grandma Becky was here for a visit last week. I think Luke liked having yet another person to hold him:)

Aaron and I are still being pretty intentional about bonding and attachment behavior: holding him for bottles, providing his direct care (diapers, food, drink, bath, etc), labeling ourselves as mama and daddy, and just doing lots of one-on-one playing and holding time. He really seems to be adjusting well, but from loads of reading and preparing, we don't want to be too nonchalant when it's only been 3 1/2 weeks since he moved to a new country, language, and home!

It is finally 'cooling off' here, and by cooling we mean less than 95 degrees. Yes, it is dramatically more comfortable at 85-90 than 105:)
