Finally -- a Name!!
As part of the big birthday weekend, we've finally landed a name for our little guy. Welcome Alexander Kim Wilson as the newest member of our family!! We'll be calling him Zander for short!
What a fabulous name!! Zander is such a lucky boy to have such wonderful parents! Can't wait until your "warrior" (I looked it up on babynames.com :) ) comes home.
Hello Amy Lam: I was thinking that you may have already or was getting close to getting your little guy so I finally got around to getting onto your blog! You and Jim must be so excited - I certainly am for you - 'course I may be a bit biased in your choice of nationality. How long will you stay in Seoul? word of caution, do not eat at the Fridays (why would you??) as Tim got food poisoning from there, of all places. I have several nieces that live in Seoul and long to get back there to visit. Right now, I'm finding it hard to simply get back to Iowa to see my folks. Will you be in NJ this summer? I would love to see you - and meet little Zander. PLEASE let me know. Also, I don't have an updated email for you...
I will pray that the adoption process moves more quickly and for a smooth transition process.
So excited! I am talking to your Mom and we figured you are meeting Zander right about now. Very happy for you! I will pray to St. Christopher for safe travels. Love you both, Aunt Gail
Baby Boy Wilson was born on April 17, 2009 in Seoul, South Korea. On his first birthday, we named him Alexander Kim Wilson. We welcomed him home on June 11, 2010 - about a week before he turned 14 months old.
Baby Girl Wilson was born on January 7, 2011 in Seoul, South Korea. On Valentine's Day (shortly after her first birthday), we named her Kiana Park Wilson. We were delighted to welcome her home on April 14, 2012 at the age of 15 months - about six months earlier than we were expecting!
WE LOVE IT!! Zander is one lucky fella to get you two as parents....we cannot wait to meet him too!
ReplyDeleteTank really thought you might take his name for the baby...he was a little worried, but relieved now.
What a great name you have chosen to give this special little boy! We look forward to meeting Zander and watching him grow up.
ReplyDeleteDoes he get to have a puppy???
