My son came home at 6 1/2 months, he is 2 1/2 now. We always talked about Guatemala (it was one of his first words), flying to pick him up, him growing in his birthmom's belly, we use the term adoption etc.
When we read adoption related books (I love you Like Crazy Cakes is one we have been reading lately), I point out the similiarities to our process. It is always very casual, comfortable conversation.
It is part of his vocabulary and we will incorporate more details as his gets older.
