I still can't believe it but we are leaving on August 11th!!!! I am still sort of in shock that it has all happened so fast but we are scheduled to be on a plane to China (via Detroit) on August 11th!!! We will return August 29th! So much to do......

Wow. We thought our dossier was a lot of paperwork - I never expected to have so much paperwork for LOA and travel!!! Once our PA arrived we were moved to the travel department with our agency (so exciting!!!) and the forms started coming fast and furious! We filled out every single form that we had, signed our LOA and thanks to Fed Ex it was all delivered back to our agency today!!!Amazing to

We have been logged in for 31 months today.   It really doesn’t seem like that is possible, but it is.  When we started the process the wait was 18-20 months and that really seemed like a lifetime back then.  Ha.   18 months??!!  Now that feels like nothing.    31 down.   ????  to go.

So it took me a few days to go through the 100’s of pictures I took on Halloween of the kids and pick out a couple of good ones.   Every year we go to my sister’s for Trick or Treating – for a couple of reasons.   Number one - we love those kids and have the best time T or T’ing with them.   Number 2 – we live up on a hill and as sad as it is, kids will walk right past our house instead of

I’m not 100% sure, but I think Hopie likes chocolate pudding!   :-) On a very sad note, I found out that very good friend of mine from high school lost her battle with breast cancer.   I am just in shock and so sad over this news.   We had lost touch in the last couple of years but I’ve thought of her often and am very saddened by the news. On a much lighter note – if you’re looking for a

Every year a group of us girls takes a “Girl’s Weekend” this same time of year.    We usually spend the whole weekend shopping and basically doing whatever we want to do.  :-)  I really think it is important to have some time with just the girls to talk, laugh, shop, laugh, vent, laugh, eat, laugh, eat and really have fun. Last weekend was girl’s weekend.   We had such a great time.  We shopped

Dear nice, nice people at the Groomer: I love you all dearly but……. please don’t ever do this to my girl again.  She hid under the dining room table for about 2 hours.  I’m certain my laughter didn’t help but you started it.   Can’t you see the embarrassment in her face??!!   Thank you for your attention to this very serious matter. Now onto the bullets: Go BUCKS!!!!   Go BENGALS!

We spent the weekend at the lake which was absolutely lovely.   A bit chilly for my taste but I guess I can’t fight Mother Nature on the coming of Fall.  She is certainly a force to be reckoned with.   We got to watch the OSU game and although they lost,  Buckeye fans are some of the most fun folks around!!  Saturday morning I got out of bed and went to start the coffee.  When I came back this

Karly spent the weekend with Hubby and I a couple of weeks ago.   It was painfully hot outside so we were looking for something “cool” to do (cool as in not hot and cool as in fun for her – we are are a full service Aunt/Uncle).   We ended up taking her to the mall and going to Build A Bear.  That was my very first time in BAB.  Wow was it fun.   It was surprisingly not crowded so she had a

Karly spent the night with us the other night which is always fun!   It was a beautiful day and Hubby was working on putting together a gazebo for the deck.  Karly was “helping” him which I’m sure he appreciated!    I just love when she comes over.   Guess who else loves when she comes over?????   Especially when she is eating a bowl of ice cream……

that was one serious break!   Yes, I took a very long and very much needed break from things.    I say needed but what I really mean is neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeded.   I got to the point where I was not in a good place emotionally for many reasons and I decided I needed to step back and regroup and really just find my mojo again.   Well guess what……….I found it!   I’m feeling much better about most things

So anyone who is on Faceb00k knows that there are an unlimited number of little applications that are available that allow you to send things to your friend list - anything from throwing snowballs at them to sending someone a hug. It's actually kind of cute - at least some of them are cute - some not so much. Anyway, last week my sister sent me some "flair" which is really just a button like the

I am so ready for winter to be over. The cold weather is doing bad things to my mood and otherwise very sunny disposition.CALGON, TAKE ME AWAY!!!!! I'd rather be: I'm looking for some good rumors on RQ. There are a few folks that I'm hoping and praying get in this time! Come on good news! We need you!

So the weathermen here have been crying snow for the past couple of weeks. We have gotten nothing more than a dusting. Until yesterday. They finally had it right. We got a couple inches of snow, then 2 inches of ice, then a couple more inches of snow. Good times. :-) And I wanted to wish everyone a Happy Chinese New Year! We didn't go to our local FCC celebration this year because we were

First of all, the biggest congratulations to my brainiac niece Lin for making the Dean's List her 1st quarter of college. She is seriously so dedicated and so smart that it impresses me every day. She's a fabulous chick and I couldn't be prouder. Second, thanks to Dave, my favorite St*rbucks guy for consistently making the best misto around!

Oh my - the scandal!! He was caught in the act. I had hoped his other love wouldn't find out.Sadly enough, I think the Snowman found out. Oh the carnage!!!! In the more exciting news, RQ has reported some very positive rumors and there are waiting families whose blogs I have followed for some time who have the possibility of getting a referral this time around. I'm crossing all fingers and toes

Yesterday when I got home there was a package stuck inside the front door - that always gets me excited. :-) But since I wasn't expecting any packages it was even more exciting. I opened the box to find this beauty: It's from my sis MK in TX. How sweet was that? She is so very thoughtful and I love the little fairy godmother!!! She's meant to watch over us until we get a referral and then

I stopped at the grocery store on my way home from work today and, as always because I have no control in the dog toy aisle, I brought the dogs a special treat.   Well Riley finished his first and then proceeded to look as pathetic as possible in the hopes that Ella would "share" hers.   Needless to say she didn't but he sure gave her the most pitiful looks in hopes that it will do the trick and

Why, oh why does the company I work (slave) for dislike me so much? Why are they so determined to set me up for failure? What did I ever do to them to make them do such terrible things to me? I can't believe they've done this: Why don't they support my admittedly unspoken but completely official New Year's resolution to cut out sweets in the mid afternoon?   Don't they know they are so not

My niece Karly has suddenly become the Word Police. If someone says something, anything, that this cute little 3 year old deems to be "inappropriate" she is quick to tell them that they have said a bad word (this includes words that are not bad as well - like gosh and darn). It's kind of cute but also kind of annoying - it got to the point that every time I said "Oh my ...." followed by any other

I think Riley really likes his Christmas present from my mom and dad which is a Snowman with a squeaker - just what he asked Santa for! He's been like this all day! I think he thinks that Ella might want to take it from him - little does he know that she couldn't care less. :-)

Just a glimpse of our tree.  I so love the holidays.  I love decorating and baking and being with family.  My sister is coming in from TX tomorrow and I am very excited to see her and my niece. It was kind of bittersweet putting up the tree - every year Crombie would suddenly discover the angel and sit at the bottom of the tree and bark at her.  She never did anything to him but he made sure she

Lots of things have happened since I updated last but I'll just hit the most important.We unfortunately lost Crombie in June. His heart just finally gave out and he couldn't make it anymore.

Goodbye my dear friend. You will never be forgotten. You are at peace now and without pain but we miss you terribly. Our lives will never be the same. We love you.

I can hardly believe it but it has been a year since we were logged in with the CCAA. Surprisingly the time has gone fairly quickly and we hope and pray that the next year goes as fast....although I don't really want to age that quickly so it's a blessing and a curse. I suppose if we survived the big Earthquake of 2008, we can survive anything. Seriously???!!!! We live in Oh1o for goodness

No time like the present to get back to this blog. I honestly had no idea how long it had been since I had updated. Time flies (or melts) as you age I suppose. At least that's what I hear. :-) But I'm going to make an effort to get back here more often. Nothing to report on the adoption front. According to RQ today referrals are only up to January 9th, 2006. At this rate we should travel

Boy - being off for a week has really done a number on me. I'm ready to be done for the week but it's only Tuesday! I haven't slept well lately so it's especially hard on me to count beans all day and not close my office door for a quick nap. :-) I'm thinking of taking Riley and Ella to get pictures with Santa. Ella had hers taken one year and they made it into an ornament. I happened to

My sister is having a baby - TODAY! NOW! We are headed to the hospital since she is actively in labor. Whoo Hoo!

It's getting cold here and I've gotta be honest - I don't like it. I've always thought I really should have been born and raised where people have never seen snow and they spend their days in flip flops and cut offs (fashionable or not!). I love the Fall and the beginning of winter (well I really only love Thansgiving and Christmas) but then I want the mercury to get back up there and warm me up

It's official! Deepest congratulations to those families getting to see their beautiful children this week! The CCAA matched through December 8, 2005. I can't wait until it's us!! :-)

We had a great time taking the neices and nephew Trick or Treating. They all looked so cute and had a lot of fun. Karly was mesmerized by everything and everybody and she had a deathgrip on that pumpkin full of candy. She would NOT let her Uncle Shane carry it for her. She just didn't trust him with her Kit Kats - smart girl! Curtis skipped Crazy Mike's, but really who can blame him???? 1

My precious babies:Abercrombie (Crombie) is doing pretty good with his heart condition. He had gained weight last time we had him at the vet which is great. And just a side note - I was at an Adoption Fair this past weekend with the FCC and ran into Crombie's cardiologist and found out that he and his wife had recently adopted from Russia. The world is so small. Riley trying to stay awake but not

Let me clarify - Karly is not my only niece. She just happens to be the youngest - at least for now. My sister is expecting at the end of November! Here are my other nieces and nephews:This is my nephew Jesse and my niece Lindsay. It still stuns me to say out loud how old they are....especially since I haven't aged a bit! :-) Lindsay and Kelsey. Kelsey is our cheerleader, actress, singer and all

Well you know the rest. So here it is a couple of months since I created this blog and I have not updated it. Shame on me. Truth be told, I'm just not sure what, if anything, of interest I have to say. But I'm going to give it a shot and try to update as much as I can. We have now been logged in for 6 months!!! It's hard to believe - the time has actually gone by faster than I thought it would.

This is a Karly reading a book like the Big Comfy Couch.
