another new link

i just added another friend's adoption blog link. tammy also went through the all the hoops there are to go through to become a mom.

mother's day was fun. we went camping and had a good time. liam gave me a shirt that says - i love my mom, with a picture of one of his cheesy smiles on it. :) while we were gone, we got veyr nice phone calls from both his birthfather and birthmother wishing me a happy mother's day!

mother's day

this is not my first mother's day. it is my 3rd. my 1st two were spent without a living child. his name was frederick, and he watches over us. i miss him very much and thank him for finding liam. last mother's day was just days before we found out that liam's birthparents had picked us to be his parents. i have already thanked his birthmother for making this mother's day so very different from the last two.

and to all my friends who went through infertility to become mothers and all my friends who are still waiting, i will be thinking of all of you this weekend especially.

new summer look!

5 yrs ago

yesterday actually (i was too busy to post yesterday.)
the tornado/straight line winds hit our home and area. definitely something we will never forget.

not 6 teeth....

we found 2 molars on sat. morning that have obviously been there for at least a few weeks! so the tooth count is up to 8!

and as of now, his words are liffey, lincoln, doggie, captain (his godmother's dog) and bye bye. bye bye has the hand action to go with it, but he doesn't really know that it means bye yet. he just repeats it and does the hand action. usually both hands at the same time!

one year ago today...

we were told by our s/w that we were officially in waiting to be matched. i hunkered down for my 6-12 month wait. :o)

liam's advice for the day

you can pick your mom. you can pick your nose. you can't pick your mom's nose.
