http://newfamilyrecipe.blogspot.com/2008/11/waiting-period-day-3-of-10.html
Join the Livingston family on our Ukrainian Adoption Adventure abroad and at home! Saturday, November 1, 2008. Waiting Period: Day 3 of 10. In boundaries. The caregivers did bring out a couple of dolls and a ball, which helped, and a small bottle of bubbles, which did NOT. It was the first of several spills on the floor. Although, soap on a floor, how bad could that be. No visit tomorrow, so that makes for a long day. We're going to try to find some souvenirs, maybe walk up to the outdoor market....Letti...

New Family Recipe: First Week At Home
http://newfamilyrecipe.blogspot.com/2008/11/first-week-at-home.html
Join the Livingston family on our Ukrainian Adoption Adventure abroad and at home! Tuesday, November 25, 2008. First Week At Home. Here's a typical scene of everyone at the breakfast table. We're going through LOTS of "baNAHnees", Cheerios, and "YOgie" (yogurt) with the crew, we even use yogie for incentive to eat foods they don't much care for like carrots. Here's a shot of a goforawalk outing. What's very interesting is that if we ride at night, they all say "Prevyet Donetsky" (Hello Donetsk), harkenin...

Such an exciting day for all of you! You have waited so long a...

Join the Livingston family on our Ukrainian Adoption Adventure abroad and at home! Wednesday, November 5, 2008. Waiting Period: Day 7 of 10. Sergei says it will hold 40,000 screaming "futbol" fans. It looks very hi tech being see-thru and with a partial roof, like a spaceship from MIB or something. As a bonus photo op, next to the stadium is this interesting WWII memorial monument which I hadn't seen before. Jo -NOW you know how Mom felt when you were born. A premature birth of 4 lbs, Mom had to wait...

Here is our picture of us with Judge Oleg, I told you he was huge! Here's a picture of us with Director Natalia (far right...

Join the Livingston family on our Ukrainian Adoption Adventure abroad and at home! Wednesday, November 19, 2008. The trip home / Settling in / Bad news. I'm going to post the pictures in chronological order starting with the morning of when we left Kiev leading up to this evening:. This is a picture of the kids in the hide-a-bed in Kiev the morning before we left. Don't they just look like a bed of puppies all curled up together in a bed? They were so crashed it seemed a shame to wake them. Here are the ...

New Family Recipe: First full day home as a family
http://newfamilyrecipe.blogspot.com/2008/11/first-full-day-home-as-family.html
Join the Livingston family on our Ukrainian Adoption Adventure abroad and at home! Monday, November 17, 2008. First full day home as a family. I'd like to start this post by saying that I have no idea how adoptive parents can continue blogging after they arrive home with the kids. It's 2am Monday morning, and I've had the first 4 hours of contiguous non-interrupted sleep since we got home. I'm going to finish this quick post by thanking various folks who've helped amazingly in the last few days:. Who cam...

New Family Recipe: October 2008
http://newfamilyrecipe.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Join the Livingston family on our Ukrainian Adoption Adventure abroad and at home! Friday, October 31, 2008. Waiting Period: Day 2 of 10. I can’t say we’re really sorry to miss that particular holiday at home. Wouldn’t it be strange for Halloween to be the kids’ first American holiday? Welcome to America, now we’re going to dress up like dead people. Weird. Haven’t seen much here to indicate they celebrate Halloween, except for the jack-o-lanterns at Cherry Pizza today:. Talia was wary, then a little fre...
