Malaki is officially 1 month today! Last night we gave him his first "real bath"; he loved it until he realized how cold it was... then came the tears! We had to use a blow dryer aimed towards him to provide heat, because it is a bit cold here in the mountains of Muramvya. His cry is truly beautiful and to be honest... sometimes we let him cry for a minute to just hear him! I guess something we longed for so bad for our first son... how amazing the feeling was to hear Malaki cry for the first time. :o) As you can see, when he was finished bathing and in mommy's arms he was content! Also pictured is him "lounging" in Buja. Truly he loves the hot weather! Yesterday we brought him to get his passport pictures for his US Passport. The funny thing is, behind his head you can see two of Isai's fingers holding his head in place! Memories to hold dear in hearts forever. We know some of you are concerned as you have seen some things on the international news concerning Burundi; we are ok and remain at peace with staying here and will keep you all posted as expected. All our love...
He is so amazing, look at those long legs! I can't wait to bite him!!!!!!
