No Posts/ Middle Name Meme

Hey! Sorry about not posting in a while. I've had some problems with my wrist latley and nothings really come up with the adoption. So I haven't been able to post anything for this blog. Anyway, Staci's tagged me for the Middle Name Meme, so here goes nothin.


You have to post these rules before you post the facts:
1. Players, you must list some fact that is somehow relevant to your life for each letter of your middle name. If you don't have a middle name, use the middle name you would have liked to have had.
2. When you are tagged you need yo write your own blog post containing your own middle name facts.
3. At the end of your blog post, you need to choose one person for each letter of your middle name to tag. Don't forget to leave them a comment telling them they're tagged.

N is for Not able to do this very well because I can't think of anything good for N.
I is for Interested in adoption.
C is for Caitie, because that's my name.
O is for Opinionated. I like to give my opinion. But only when the time feels right.
L is for Laughs. I love to laugh.
E is for Elegant. At least that's what my mom says.

I never knew that characterizing myself would be so hard! Anyway, I now tag Lexi, Olivia, Holly, Ally, and Emmie. I can't think of another person so whoever I missed who hasn't done it yet? Go for it!

Quick post!

Hey! Okay. I have made another blog. http://www.diaryofacountrygirl.blogspot.com/ !! :D Please visit it and also tell other bloggers about it?! I also need some help finding a good song to put on it so if anyone could help me, that would be just great. You all have my email address so you could just email the title to me. Also, I just realized I write so so much on here and no one (sorry Staci I'm going to have to remove you from this category:D) knows what I look like! So here is our family adoption picture (the one that we sent to CHina with our dossier -sp?-) I really hope it comes up, I've notice that some of the pictures I want to show up don't.

Happy Birthday Dearest Sarah.............


Happy Birthday To YOU!!!:D Today is Sarah's 1'st birthday!! Happy Birthday Sweet Girl!

OOPS....

sorry about about not posting even though I said I would. I was really busy this weekend. On Friday Christopher and Dad left for Wisconsin, leaving Mom, Jonah, and I home without a car. :D The day before Mom and I had gone to the video store to get a bunch of movies for Friday and Saturday night. We really actually only got three movies, Around The World in 80 Days (Jonah and I had already seen it when it came out but thought it was so funny we had to get it again), Unaccompanied Minors (which I may say was pretty funny), and Kicking and Screaming (WORST MOVIE I HAVE EVER SEEN! okay there were a few funny parts but other than that? Never again will I see that movie.) So on Friday night we watched ATWI80D and UM. I also must add that we had one whole back of chocolate covered raisins, Twizzlers (SP?). We had to be up until about midnight watching movies. On Saturday? It was pretty much like every Saturday. My grandparents came up from Chicago and spent the day with us. We went to Sears and Michaels and found some really cute outfits for Sarah, but we didn't get them since we're still waiting for her medical info. Okay, I'm actually going to have to take a pause in telling about the weekend to explain. As you all know we've been waiting for Sarah's medical info -which we still haven't gotten yet. Mom said that we're not going to buy anymore clothes until we get her info because we don't know how much she weighs now and if she's still in the 18 months sizes or if now she's all the way in the 24 months. Bummer. Especially since it's already been a week and still no info.
Anyway, back to my weekend. So after we went shopping we came home and ordered Chinese. Yum!! After Gram and Papa left, we popped K&S in. I won't say anything more about that movie. We went straight to bed after the movie. ON Sunday, Mom let us sleep in later than usual. I think I slept until like 11 or something :D. Christopher and Dad came home at 1:30 PM and we had Tacos for dinner. Then Mom, Jonah, and I went to PetsMart and I got four fish and a snail and Jonah got some filters for his tank. Today we went back and Jonah got 2 snails. :D
Congratulations to Olivia and Trent!! I can't wait to see your little girls face!! I'm sure you're a lot more anxious than I am. :) We're all praying for you guys.

YADA, YADA, YA,

Yeah I know. I haven't been posting much and when I do their "nice" and short. And I dedicate the-slowest-moving-adoption-center award to....take a wild guess, I'll give you a hint. It starts with Sunny and ends with ridge. Put it all together and you get Sunnyridge (I think I just ruined the Pattycake Song). Sorry. I've suddenly got to stop writting so I'll continue later or tomorrow.

One Big Sad Face Comin Up :(

Yeah I know, it's not that big, but whatever. The point is, is that Bethanne still hasn't emailed us the new medical info on Sarah!!!! Mom goes online everday to check her mail and still no email. We're not sure if Bethanne is just taking her sweet old time like she usually does, or if she just hasn't gotten the info yet. :(

New Medical Info!!

Hey everyone! Sorry I haven't posted in a while!! There hasn't been much to post about lately. Still no PA or LOA, but Bethanne did email Mom two days ago and told us that some new medical information on Sarah has come in!!! YAY!!!! We're hoping to be getting that around next week and we're also thinking that PA might come with all of this also. But China must be looking at our files if info is being sent out to us! HURRAY!! We're getting closer!!!

Her Cleft Lip/ Palate....


...is not so bad!! Yesterday Mom took Christopher to get his sports physical and she ended up showing our doctor Sarah's picture. She (dr.) told Mom that she didn't think we have to worry about Sarah's nutritan. She said that her face had a lot of color and that her cleft lip looks minor, she said that it looks like it didn't go through her gum. She also said that since Sarah is so chubby, she doesn't think that her palate is that bad. She said that since her picture is of her at 5 months, Sarah has to suck on her bottle or whatever way she feeds and it looks like she's doing a pretty good job if she's this chubby. :D So it looks like surgery isn't going to be as major as we had thought!! I'm so happy! I really didn't want to put little Sarah through so much.

(I just can't get enough of that face!!!:D)
