The Thompsons' Travels Through Life! Thursday, November 4, 2010. At two months old, not only is carys sleeping through the night for the most part, but she also weighs in at 11 lbs. 13 ozs. (i have a little Chunky Monkey on my hands) and she measures 23 inches long, which puts her in the 90th percentile for both weight and length). Her little personality is coming out I think. Time will only tell, but it appears that she get frustrated when she can't get to something, and she is definitely a Southern...

apple pie & egg rolls: I Still Gotcha
http://rushandjen.blogspot.com/2013/03/i-still-gotcha.html
Apple pie and egg rolls. Tuesday, March 26, 2013. I can so vividly recall walking through alleys and stepping over puddles on the half-paved backstreets of Guangzhou. I was sweating, but that had more to do with anxious anticipation than the humid Chinese air. We hustled into an ordinary looking building, jumped on an elevator and came around a corner. There you were. Beautiful. Smiling. Wobbly on your feet. Playful. Perfect. My son. I can't wait to see. April 10, 2013 at 6:51 PM. Happy One Year together!

Apple pie and egg rolls. Sunday, May 27, 2012. My Little Graduate (Sunday Snapshot). Miss Reagan finished preschool this week.which is crazy, because I swear she just started. It's amazing how quickly this year has gone by. And it's even more amazing to think that her first day of preschool last. Year, was the day before we left to go get Rylie from China. It just reminds me that really, Rylie hasn't been home all that long. Here's Reagan on her first day, back in September. Links to this post. Admittedl...

apple pie & egg rolls: Same Love, Different Love
http://rushandjen.blogspot.com/2012/10/same-love-different-love.html
Apple pie and egg rolls. Thursday, October 25, 2012. Same Love, Different Love. I think one of the biggest misgivings people have about adoption is wondering if they can love an adopted child as much as a biological child. I've been asked it. And I've answered it in various ways.depending on where we were on this journey. I'm going to be honest here. Can I really love this kid? I mean, really. Love her like my others? Without trying to convince other people? And if I can.when? When will it happen? I love...

apple pie & egg rolls: July 2012

Apple pie and egg rolls. Friday, July 27, 2012. While each church puts their own little spin on their VBS, couldn't you argue that for the most part they are all pretty much the same? I could keep going on and on with other reasons why its more of a Mommy-style gig. I know most of them by heart because I have used them as excuses in the past myself. Without question our wives and kids need us for all those things. The running toilet can wait. Links to this post. Thursday, July 19, 2012. It's not crazy sc...

Apple pie and egg rolls. Sunday, November 24, 2013. Why are my kids so unlucky? When people hear the story of our family's multiple adoptions they often come to two completely inaccurate assumptions:. 1) Y'all are such good people to adopt these kids. 2) Your kids are so lucky. The first misconception is easy to debunk. We are NOT. But the second assumption has to be correct, right? But the truth is that the last word I would use to describe my two adopted kids is lucky. Why? Turned. There was a fami...

The Thompsons' Travels Through Life!: Sweet Sixteen!
http://ericandjessicathompson.blogspot.com/2012/01/sweet-sixteen.html
The Thompsons' Travels Through Life! Monday, January 9, 2012. No, Carys isn't driving yet, :) but where have the past 16 months gone? Carys had a blast opening presents at Christmas, and she has unwrapping boxes down, and she is a bit of a perfectionist about it, every last piece of paper has to be removed. Once she was done removing the paper she lost interest, but she had fun opening her presents, and a couple of mine and Eric's presents. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

The Thompsons' Travels Through Life! Friday, January 7, 2011. Of course we missed the getting the first few laughs on camera (which were really good belly laughs), but we caught the rest of her laughter until she got tired, that is. So here it is for your viewing pleasure (and yes I forgive Eric for the unflattering camera angles of me, but I'm not the star of the show anyway:) Carys laughing:. Tuesday, January 4, 2011. Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and 4 months. Hmmmm, what is this funny white stuff?

The Thompsons' Travels Through Life! Tuesday, March 8, 2011. Carys is also enjoying baby food, fortunately, she is not a terribly picky eater, she likes all stage 1 fruits (except prunes, I haven't tried her on prunes yet because she hasn't needed them), and she likes all the veggies except green beans, I think she just tolerates green beans, and it shocked me, but she likes squash, and personally I think the squash smells horrible. Carys and green beans. However, even though Carys is laid back she is al...
