Friday, July 12, 2013. Daniel lost a tooth! Daniel told me the other day that his tongue hurt. I looked at it and there was nothing wrong. Then he told me to look in his mouth. There, right behind his adorable little baby teeth was an adult tooth popping through! The loose tooth drove him crazy. Every 10 minutes he made me look at it and complained that it hurt. Andrew and I wiggled it for him constantly just to get it out of there. Links to this post. Sunday, July 7, 2013. Links to this post. Check thes...

Wednesday, November 6, 2013. As most of you know, Wilson Manno had to be admitted to the hospital this week for what was supposed to be a quick procedure and overnight stay. Instead, it turned into several procedures and two overnights. The good news is that many tests were done and his amazing doctor and nurse practitioner now have a good plan to get him healthy. The view from outside of our door. (this photo was obtained illegally.). A gift from Gramma and Grandad:. Chicken and rice and yogurt! For tho...

Monday, August 4, 2014. Readoption and Name Change. This was taken in the family waiting room. Cook County does not allow cameras inside the court room so there are no pictures with the judge. Don't mind Daniel. He was having a moment). The boys loved looking down on the view from inside the courthouse. Better lighting and backdrop outside of the Daley Center building. During our walk back to the parking ramp, we stopped at Corner Bakery for a celebratory snack: monster cookies. Links to this post. 8x10 ...

Tuesday, December 31, 2013. While at my parents' house, we celebrated Andrew's 'almost' birthday. He requested a meal at Cracker Barrel (there may have been some help from Gramma with that decision). Several years ago, one of the boys asked for a 'pie in the face' as part of his celebration with Gramma and Grandad. My mom was happy to oblige and a new birthday tradition started. This year, Wilson got in on the fun. Links to this post. Wednesday, December 18, 2013. Giving me the 'OK' sign. He's in there&#...

View from the guest house rooftop:. Scaffolding made from sticks woven together:. The security guards sleep in these tin boxes.

Monday, July 28, 2014. The boys and I are visiting our friends, the Cash family, and are having a BLAST. Kelly and I are getting time to talk in person and the boys are running WILD. Today, they set up the slip-n-slide and the kids had a great time. Daniel's entire stomach and chest are covered in grass cuts but it would not stop him from going again if given the chance. Kolton showed them how it was done. Two of these three had no fear. The other one is just like his mom. 8x10 Superhero/brother print...

Saturday, September 27, 2014. You know it. I know it. And he knows it. That smile and those sparkly eyes can charm you out of (or into) just about anything. This is the face that most of you see because this is the face he wants you to see- -the face that has and will continue to get him what he wants: attention, snacks, treats, and his version of love. It is the face that controls the outcome of his interactions with you. He only wanted us and his attachment seemed relatively easy. This is a small bump ...
