Andre was playing with stickers and stuck them in his hair, on his ear, etc.!
Greesha was just smiling for the camera.
The boys are learning English words now. They started learning them week 2 home! They know "oh boy!", "oh no!" (when something falls or toys crash, etc), "more"and "hello". Greesha repeats everything over and over - "bye bye", "car", "careful", etc. He, from memory, said "froggy" the other day when he picked up a rubber frog. Andre doesn't repeat as much as Gregory, but he understands a lot of what we say. He even helps with Greesha by telling him what we are trying to communicate (and by telling him what Andre thinks he should do :)).
Over the last few nights they slept much better - only waking up once or twice. We are SO grateful for that!
They are learning cute, loving things too - like Andre will have his animals and cars (and whatever else he is playing with) kiss each other. And he has us pretend to take a nap and pats us and tucks us in all nicely.
They are balls of energy for sure, but it is really fun to get to know them! :)

I see Andre has a UPS sticker on...I hope is not planning on sending himself back!?!? They are way too cute - glad to hear that they are adjusting well!
Sounds like things are moving right along. Glad you were able to give us an update.
Is Greesha and Gregory the same name? is it just how it's pronounced?
Thanks for the post! very cute!
I am so excited and pleased to see your beautiful sons continue to blossom. Glad you're getting more sleep too. I'll talk with you soon to hear the adventures of G&A!

"Greesha" is Gregory's nickname from the baby house. Andre says "Geesha" - which we also tend to call him...
Andre's name was pronounced Andrey, so we have kept that too, but usually just type "Andre".

Your boys are just beautiful! It is so fun to hear about your adoption and start to catch up on it. We too have been having sleep issues, but now only at least one is just waking up. Congratulations!
It must be real exciting as they learn to speak more each day. I guess I should wait a few years before I give them my introductory talk to pirate lingo= Arrgghh,shiver me timbers!!
