Have been to see Amber and Astin twice today (I was looking after Bailey- not being a stalker, lol!).
Astin is so cute! The pics so dont do justice to his gorgeous face at all! (I will post some soon!) Amber and Astin are doing really well. He is feeding well, and they are hoping to go home tomorrow. |
