Social Report

Today we received our social report for our son. What’s a social report? A social report is a 10+ page document that the staff at the care center put together all about our baby. It has details on:

• his eating – he’s eating soy formula and clamps his mouth shut when full
• his sleeping – he takes 3 naps a day and sleeps through the night. His nannies have to wake him up at night to feed him and he’s not a crier when going to sleep or waking up. (Taking after his big sister in the sleep department – Lexi slept through the night at 3 weeks).
• his play – he likes to be held and fusses when put down. He likes to follow toys with his eyes and hold things. He likes to follow people’s movements around the room.
• his habits – he’s a thumb-sucker (Taking after his big sis again)
• his attitude – he’s happy and content.

But that’s not the best part. The best part is we have 12 new pictures of our boy. And he’s amazing. We have pictures of him smiling, sleeping, sucking his thumb, laughing and looking at pictures of us. He’s playing with the toy we sent him and wearing the clothes we sent over.

I’m so impressed with how the nannies care for the children there. You can tell that there is a mutual love and they will be sad to see him go but glad he has found a home. It’s reassuring to know that he is being so well cared for and loved until we can go pick him up. And I can not wait to go and pick him up.
