Update on Cole!

Hi all my guatmom and guatdad friends, I've missed you all! I wanted to drop a note about Cole. We've been a forever family now for 1 year, 1 month. Cole's made great strides, he is now running around, catching up, etc! He's a happy little boy! We are still doing private speech and occupational therapy, and he's coming around more and more each day.

Here's a recent picture! I hope everyone is doing well!
