Andrew likes when I sit him on Eliana´s dresser, and let him get his hands on stuff there. Eliana has a few fine china decorative cups that she has sitting on there, and he would like to get those, but I have to keep him away from them. He doesn´t always like the camera, as you will see at the end of the video.

another vaccine
Today Andrew had another vaccine. It was actually a shot with multiple vaccines. He has to have 3 of them, and this was the second. Had to go into the part of the hospital where only one parents is allowed to enter, and so I had to stay in the waiting room. Eliana said he really cried, but Eliana gave him lots of kisses, and I know he likes those.
This is the shot that I think usually causes babies to have some fever, and so he has a little fever now. But he is doing well.
Tonight he had his eyes closed, and was I think half a sleep, and Eliana gave him kisses, and he just laughed and laughed, and didn´t even open his eyes. I think he might have been ticklish, because she gave him kisses near his ear.
We have started laying Andrew on a blanket, and then we both grab a side of it, and pick him up, and swing him in it, and make it go up and down. Wow, does he love that. When we just swing it a little, he doesn´t really laugh, but when we swing him higher, he just laughs, and loves it. Of course he has to suck on his hand at the same time. It is like us eating popcorn while watching a movie, except Andrew sucks on his hand. When we stop, and put him down, he will start to fuss, because he wants to be swung more.
When he is awake, and feeds, he kicks, and squirms, and Eliana has a hard time feeding him. Yesterday I tried holding onto his leg, and keep him from kicking, but his legs are so strong I could not do it. I couldn´t believe how strong he was.
During the night he will want to feed, and start moving around, but he doesn´t actually wake up. Eliana will feed him, but he sleeps and feeds at the same time. So that is really neat, and its really easy for Eliana to feed him then.
Off the subject, but Andrea Bocelli is coming to do a concert here in Lima. So that is a big thing here. The tickets are expensive, so we won´t be going, but Elianas sister did buy some videos of him and his concerts, and we enjoy seeing those. He sure can sing.
Can´t wait to come to the United States, and we know it will happen in God´s time. I can´t say for sure, but I have a feeling it will be this summer.

today
Today we were downstairs eating breakfast, and Elianas father had a bread roll, and gave it to Andrew to see what he would do with it. Well Andrew grabbed it with both hands, and gripped it so tight it was smushing the roll. He put it to his mouth, and licked it. Eliana then took it away from him, and he did not like that at all, and started fussing. So Eliana gave it back to him, and he did the same thing. When Eliana took it away from him again, he started crying, and if he could talk, he probably would have said ¨that is mine!, grandpa gave it to me¨. Well the only thing that settled him down was flying him around like superman, and so he forgot about the roll. The doctor said to wait longer until we start feeding him anything other than milk. But he seems ready to start eating something. He is a little more than 4 months old. I read to start with a little rice cereal mixed with milk. I think that is what my mom told me too.
And then we went to the bedroom, and layed him down to rest, and he would have none of that, and started fussing. I let him lay there for a minute to see if he would calm down, but he wouldn´t. So Eliana picked him up, and sat on the bed, and bounced up and down. The harder she bounced, the more he laughed and screamed. She really got to bouncing, and I thought he would not like it, but he loved it. He is going to be like me when I was a kid, always on the go, and wanting to do new things.
And then I was talking to Andrew, and I got right up near his face, and he put his hand out, and grabbed my glasses. He pulled them off my face, and as far as he was concerned they were now his. I think he likes my glasses because he can very easy put his hand around them.
Andrew sure is a lot of fun. He loves to laugh, and play. He wants to see everything. Can´t wait for my parents to see him and Eliana. That will be a very special day.

I am trying to make a sad face for the camera, because he pulled my glasses off my face.

Andrew & cousin Grace
Proud Dads
Grandma & Grandpa Huamani with Andrew, Gabriel and Grace.
Here is something we made for Elianas Dad for when he came home today. He shattered his thumb while working out back, and had to stay at the hospital waiting for the swelling to go down, so they could do surgery.
A photo from yesterday. This is him resting. When he is not resting, he likes to fly around like superman, and look at everything.
Andrew & Grace. Andrew is 17 weeks old, and Grace is about 2 weeks.
That is not Grace´s mother holding Grace, but a friend of the family.
Andrew looking at his new cousin. This is the first time Andrew has seen her.
There is Maria holding her baby Grace. 
She is precious.
That is a really funny expression that Andrew has.
