Loving by Choice: Oh MY!
http://livingbyaccident.blogspot.com/2008/12/oh-my.html
Tuesday, December 2, 2008. For review: Jonah saw the surgeon on November 20 and they said he was a priority to schedule due to his age. Normally children with cleft palates have them surgically closed between 9-12 months of age, so at almost 23 months old, now, Jonah is a "old man" for this surgery. That is a week from tomorrow! My baby's not ready! I don't know if I can do this to him! But I know it's the right thing to do. and I need to get cracking getting everything in order! My, oh my. January 4, 20...

Loving by Choice: January 2010

Wednesday, January 20, 2010. Was our agency. So you dont' have to hunt for it :) :). Http:/ groups.yahoo.com/group/homeland xingfu/. You don't have to be a member to read the posts, but you do need membership to view the files of the kids. The latest hoopla over their behavior doesn't surprise me in the slightest. We had no end of problems with them, as you can read in the archives. Wednesday, January 6, 2010. I just had to pop back in from my AWOLness to wish my littlest man a very Happy Birthday! Janua...

Loving by Choice: Adopted
http://livingbyaccident.blogspot.com/2009/05/adopted.html
Sunday, May 10, 2009. Tom and I get this question sometimes. Much more when all of us are out together. I think in diversified Southern California when I am out and about just me and the boys, most people assume that I've remarried an Asian man, or some such configuration. Adoption isn't always the first assumption. Or perhaps people just consider it rude to ask? But we do get this question occasionally. And really. it is kind of awkward.

Loving by Choice: January 2011
http://livingbyaccident.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 7, 2011. When I stop feeling sorry for myself, I'll have to do something about redesigning this blog so that it is worth keeping up. I suppose that will happen about the time I feel like my life is worth keeping up. Right now it's just a matter of just hanging on. Again. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Loving by Choice: November 2008
http://livingbyaccident.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 19, 2008. Someone tell my loving husband that if he can't get pictures processed from his big, fancy camera in a timely manner, then he's going to go back to taking tiny, low-resolution pics with his little point-and-shoot that I can download directly to my computer and post. Because this is ridiculous! Here we are, with arguably THE WORLD'S CUTEST little boy from China (Noah excepted, of course) and I can't get pictures for the website! More later. maybe when I get some PICTURES!

Loving by Choice: July 2009
http://livingbyaccident.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 17, 2009. During Jonah's last cleft team appointment, the nurse actually printed out his growth charts and everyone was just marveling over how much Jonah has grown since he came home. It is AMAZING! Over 10lbs and 5 inches in only 7 months! And to think. a year ago we were so incredibly worried about how small he was and how poorly he seemed to be doing. It doesn't seem to have slowed him down, now that he actually can eat as much food as he wants (and obviously needs)! Our Family of Four.

Loving by Choice: Happy Birthday Jonah!!
http://livingbyaccident.blogspot.com/2010/01/happy-birthday-jonah.html
Wednesday, January 6, 2010. I just had to pop back in from my AWOLness to wish my littlest man a very Happy Birthday! Today is the day that Jonah officially turned 3 years old! We dropped off MOST of the paperwork, but as always, Mommy forgot something and I have to mail it in AGAIN, and we had to wait around for over 20 minutes for someone to even show up at the Adoptions Unit to take our paperwork. I was hoping this one would be quick and easy but OH NO, that's just not possible for us! The Road to Ren.

Loving by Choice: Ok, this is ridiculous
http://livingbyaccident.blogspot.com/2009/05/ok-this-is-ridiculous.html
Tuesday, May 5, 2009. Ok, this is ridiculous. If I wait for enough time to really do an update justice, I'll never get caught up, so here goes. Since I posted last:. We bought a motorhome! Well, actually a business. Purchased right before my company closed, otherwise we NEVER would have had the nerve to go for it! We have a motorhome and a website www.rvrentalca.com. Joshua ended up in the hospital (AGAIN) from his asthma! Hopefully we'll get enough business to at least pay for the repairs. March 17th...
