Our Adoption Journey Blog. Thursday, July 31, 2008. There is one more step between us and a definite departure date, and that is an appointment with the Consulate in China. We've received word that our appointment has tentatively been scheduled for August 26th, but we are still waiting for this to be official. (sigh) Please pray that tomorrow brings us some answers! Emma lives in the city of Zhanjiang, located in southeast China near the Vietnam border. Can you see it? Tuesday, July 29, 2008. Beyond furn...

Journey to Emma: November 2008
http://emmaelizabeth888.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Our Adoption Journey Blog. Friday, November 28, 2008. November has been a fun month - I hate to see it end! For Emma it has been a month full of school, sleep overs with Cassie, reading her first book, 100% on a her first spelling test, learning how to say "Mama" and "Da", and settling in. Oh, and most important of all, hair long enough to put in pigtails! This had her dancing around the room excited! She wants to put it all together and present it by herself. The other night she trudged across the f...

http://emmaelizabeth888.blogspot.com/2009/10/autumn-2009.html
Our Adoption Journey Blog. Thursday, October 15, 2009. Now that fall is here, we are out of "firsts" with Emma! This will be her second Halloween, her second trip to the pumpkin patch, second Thanksgiving, etc. You should have seen the look on her face when I explained that there will be another Christmas. She was shocked and then just danced around the room! You could just see the thoughts going through her head "Holy Cow! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Journey to Emma: August 2008
http://emmaelizabeth888.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Our Adoption Journey Blog. Saturday, August 30, 2008. The saying is right, there is no place like it! By the time we made it home, she was having so much fun with her brothers and sister that she decided bedtime could wait. Blake and Matt gave piggy back rides and Brooke helped her get her room in order. She learned their name signs almost instantly. After an hour or so of playing, she put on her pj's and plopped into her bed, sleeping almost 11 hours! Tuesday, August 26, 2008. Monday, August 25, 2008.

Journey to Emma: September 2009
http://emmaelizabeth888.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Our Adoption Journey Blog. Wednesday, September 23, 2009. August - Odd and Ends. A little collection of lots of things here. 4H is big this time of year. We all helped out on a community project and also walked in the parade. We also went to Adventureland for Daniel's birthday and Emma drove bumper cars with Kayli. I also added a short clip of Emma, some talking and some signing. She's a little bashful and tired. ;-). Needed just a few more pics of this! What a beautiful bride and flower girl! In May - o...

Journey to Emma: March 2011
http://emmaelizabeth888.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Our Adoption Journey Blog. Saturday, March 19, 2011. Two Year's "Hearing" with Cochlear Implants Now. Just use your voice! You have to see the look in her eyes to really appreciate how thrilled she is with her progress - makes me want to cry. That said - I love sign language and know it's a part of our life forever. Can't imagine NOT being a signing family at this point. ;-). Okay - I'm REALLY going to work now! Love and Blessings to You. I was recently inspired by another blog - so I'm updating this one!

Journey to Emma: January 2009
http://emmaelizabeth888.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Our Adoption Journey Blog. Sunday, January 25, 2009. This Wednesday her implant will be activated. The audiologist said they tested the implant during surgery and her nerve reacted well. I don't know what that means exactly, just that it's good. He seemed very optimistic, despite the fact that Emma is getting her implant so late. Just a few more days and Emma will be hearing. We hope to tape her activation so we can post it! Thursday, January 8, 2009. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.
