Hansel is a playful boy and has learnt to crawl recently. At 8 months, he is definitely an attention seeker. Also, he smiles and laughs readily when teased. Pictures courtesy of Kangwei which I cropped and enhanced with AnalogColor.

Daily dose of humor
Hansel provides the family everyday entertainment with his daily dose of humor and gummy smiles. Here are some pictures.
Looking up
Hansel is gradually building strength in his neck area. This allows him to tilt his head up and look around as in the pictures here.

Little things
I decided to take a series of things we see and use in the daily care of Hansel. These pictures will be a fond reminder of this time for us in the future.

Happy Mother’s Day
Today we celebrated Mother’s Day simply with a cake. Jamie now qualifies! Here are some pictures taken tonight.
8 weeks old
At 8 weeks old (or 1 month corrected), Hansel can be fussy at times, refusing to sleep after feeding. Often, he struggles to keep his eyes open, curiously peering around though he is sleepy. Enjoy this series taken in recent days at 8 weeks.
The Zoolander Magnum
Hansel strikes a “Magnum” look – for those of you familiar with the Zoolander movie. Hansel makes this face often, much to our amusement.
Good Friday Weekend
This Good Friday long weekend was a nice one. We brought Hansel to Church on Friday and to Costco on Saturday – His first weekend outdoors. Travelling light, all pictures here taken with the Canon IXUS 100IS and Ricoh GRD.
The Many Expressions of Hansel
Hansel never ceases to amuse us with his many expressions. He is most awake in the evenings after feeding, here is a series taken this evening.
Welcome home, Hansel.
Hansel came home on Saturday afternoon, March 12. While Hansel adapts to the new home environment, we too are making anticipated changes to our routine as best as we can. I have taken ill and on medication, hoping to get well fast. These are the only pictures I could muster at this time, more to come.
No more tubes!
A milestone today as Hansel graduates from feeding through the tube and over to the bottle. I can imagine it is a relief for him as having a tube down one’s nose with a big sticky tape on cheek is no fun. He downs a small bottle of milk quickly, not bad for a first attempt at bottle feeding.
Coaching from the nurse.
Big stretch... just before tube removed.
