Oh Baby!

We just got the birth certificate!  And not a moment too soon!  It is officially the first same-sex birth certificate ever issued in Australia!



Before we leave we still need to get Kylan a passport, receive Melyssa's new passport in the mail, and send Immigration copies of his passport and birth certificate.

If we're lucky and things go as planned, it'll all be done by next week... but who knows.  It's starting to feel like we're cutting it a lot closer than we are.

I'm just glad we're finally going to have Immigration done one way or another.  Then again, then it'll be time to actually stress about what the decision will be!



In other news, I haven't done an update about Kylan in awhile.  I just feel like blogging about him is so... boring.  Worse than mommy blogging it'd just be factual updates and endless posting of pictures... the same pictures available just over there --->



Kylan is currently 15 weeks... and bigger than our friend's 5 month old.  He's just massive.  Another half a kilo and we'll have to turn the car seat around already, a milestone which is usually reached around 6 months old.  Not only that, but he's only one size smaller than his cousin was on his first birthday.



He started getting his first tooth already too, we had joked he was teething already, but now it turns out he's got a tooth poking through on the bottom.  It's really far to the right side though, which I think is kinda weird.  His top gums are really hard, almost clinking against the plastic spoon, so we're expecting more any day soon.



He's taking it like a champ.  Other than some dribbling and some difficulty falling asleep, he's just been great.  Nothing a little Panadol can't handle!  



He's just starting to play with toys, and it's been taking him a lot of concentration.  There just doesn't seem to be any toys that interest him enough to reach out for, the most he's doing is hitting things in his lap and very rarely picking them up to put in his mouth.  It's frustrating when we know gnawing on something will help his gums, but he doesn't chew on anything other than his hands.



His absolutely favorite toy by far is his Hippo which we hang where he can see from his car seat.  Every time we start to get him out of the car he gives Hippo a great big smile like "Bye!  See you soon!" and sometimes Hippo will stop him from crying more than his dummy will.
