Introducing Brody Michael Jones


Well we finally made our pick. I would like to give you all of the stats, but I have to convert them to pounds, and I kinda forgot the conversion... I am going to look it up today and post them later. Anyway, Altor who will soon be named Brody is 8 monthes old. He seems to be doing really well developmentally. He can crawl, sit up and stand with support. All of the children at the orphanage are extremely well taken care of. They little scooters that they sit in and roll all over the place.

Medical history is relatively normal. He had two incidents of bronchitis, one being now. We are going back to visit in about 20 minutes. Starting today we go 2x a day 10-12 and 4-6. I will try to post again later with all of the stats.

First of all, why change the name? Altor rocks!!! He is beautiful. Congrats Mom and Dad!! Look forward to seeing you guys.

Abattos said...

Congratulations! Reading all of the lovely comments _ I have to say ditto to all of them. BY the way, I (Trish) like the name Thor just as much as Brody. Keith thinks Thor would be a good football name.

Have fun and send the 6 inch heel boots.

LOve the Abattos

Abattos said...

My bad - I like the name Altor too - I don't know why I thought it was Thor!
