I'm an American!!

It's finally official . . . almost anyways . . . I'm on the road to becoming an official American citizen! On Thursday the Consulate from Sydney made a trip to Queensland (Brisbane) and we had to go downtown and meet them to sign a bunch of documents. Mom and dad had been preparing all of the paperwork (and there was a TON of it) so that I could officially be an American. They signed to get me a passport, a social security number, and a consular report of a birth abroad document. The birth abroad document will be my American accepted birth certificate because the US doesn't acknowledge a foreign birth certificate like I have. It took a total of 10 minutes to meet and sign everything and my passport should arrive in about 2 weeks so then I can become a travelin' man! (Mom and dad have been waiting to go to New Zealand until I got my passport.)

I will be 16 weeks old tomorrow. I have to go to the doctor for my shots and he will weigh and measure me again so we'll see if I will break the 19-20 lb. mark!! Look back in a few days and mom will update my stats!

Here are some recent pictures of me . . .

This is what I look like after mom and dad lug me all over the place on all of these trips they like to go on:
This is me sporting my new beach and pool "togs". I went into the swimming pool for the first time when we were at Tangalooma and I didn't quite know what to think.
