Family Dreams

We are keeping this little blog to let our friends and family know of our experiences as we journey towards building our family through adoption. We are hoping to adopt from China, and plan on posting any information we can to keep everyone up to date, as well as any pictures that are important. We welcome any questions or comments, and they can be left by clicking the "comments" link at the end of each post. No question is a dumb question!!! We hope you enjoy our journey as much as we plan to.

Thank you to our secret Pal!! - January edition...



Just a quick note to our secret pal. Our January gift arrived today, which was such a warm thing on such a COLD day! We love all of the "Feeding Baby" items from this month and know they will come in so handy both on our trip to China and when we bring Aidan home! I am really grateful for the sippy cups I hear that they are wonderful for kids and they are helpful in transitioning them to regular cups. SP must be a mom, because she knew the things we would need! Such a fun thing for a Monday morning!!


It was pretty funny. I opened the package at work and one of our staff, who just got married and is not a mom yet, laughed at the thought of us baby proofing the house, and the look on my face must have been priceless as I realized that maybe I should clear out some room in the kitchen for some plastic wear. Hadn't really thought about that part before. Room check. Baby gates check. High chair check. Things to feed the baby with-- uh oh. Watching an adopive parent panic? PRICELESS!

Thank you again secret Pal, and thank you for your wish. Little feet will pitter patter this year!

    Awww...that is so nice. I love the story of your face at work....yep, I could see how it could be panic! With a newborn, you kind of "grow" into them. With Aiden, you get to LEAP! :-)

    Enjoy the leaping, it's pretty cool!
