Today we had our second Lifebook meeting. Shannon and Susan met over at my house and we all rode together. The meeting was good and informational, but most of us couldn’t stop thinking and talking about Susan’s trip to China on WEDNESDAY! So excited for her! I can’t wait to see them all as a…

I have set up a little shop on Etsy to sell some of my jewelry and other creations. I will have stock pieces as well as make custom items. All proceeds go directly to our adoption fund. By the end of this weekend I hope to have all the shelves stocked so to speak. Please…

This morning I had my stitches out. My mom went with me to the doctor. She’s looking for a new doctor and I just love mine so she wanted to check him out. She grabbed my camera and took way too many pictures. I will spare you the gross ones. I didn’t heal like my…

This morning I had a little cavity to deal with at the dentist. While there he smoothed out my front teeth. Apparently I’d never worn down the little peaks your teeth make when you get your adult teeth. It always got on my nerves that they were a little scallop-y looking. I also had a…

I got my period today. I don’t normally mention that sort of thing except that sort of thing rarely happens around here due to my PCOS. Last time it happened was August 2005. So I’m sure in no time it will be kicking my ass uterus. I’m also lucky enough to get my period during…

I suppose everyone will be talking about the Super Bowl today. I watched mainly for the commercials (not so great this year) and I was rooting for Seattle to win their first ever. Oh well.So instead of rehashing football plays I thought I’d pimp out my new favorite shoe. Last November (04) I bought my…

This morning Shannon and I went to a meeting about Lifebooks. When you adopt it is a nice thing to make for your child. Most kids would have scrapbooks or photo albums from pregnancy/birth on, but our photos start with a referral. So a lifebook is something you put together explaining as much as we…

Is there anything you didn’t used to like but you do now? I used to hate tomatoes but now I love them. I feel the same way about Brian Austin Green. When he was on 90210 I couldn’t stand him. Now he’s on Freddie and cracks me up. I love him! I’m working from home…

I am finally at liberty to announce that my Mom and Hale are engaged to be married! Christmas Eve Hale asked us girls if it would be alright if he asked our mom to marry him. He then turned to Mom and got down on one knee. It was so sweet! I couldn’t blog about…
