Little me

A few fellow bloggers have taken to posting photos of how they looked when they were a nipper, Connie, Doris, Melissa and Shannon (if I were half the blogger they are when you clicked on their names you would be magically transported to their sites but I'm not so dream on) so I too have chosen to flash you back a couple of years, cough cough, to how I used to look. For some reason my sister now how has all the family photos so next time I go home I shall have to raid her great big photo box and take some of them.

Here I am looking very silly in my Policemans hat at the Floral Fiesta. I was 5.

The Little Gardener

Since we are actually having some decent weather we took advantage of it and spent some time outside this afternoon. We stopped at the garden centre and picked up some new blooms for a pot so that Lily could plant them. She loves planting things and watching them grow which is good really cos I'm not so good in the plant department and anything I plant has a tendancy to keel over!

Weirdness Challenge

Connie had offered us fellow bloggers a challenge to post photos of weird stuff that we have in our houses. You can see her original post and her weirdness on her blog at
http://jadynjourney.blogspot.com/

I have plenty of weirdness in this house, heck some of it is alive and kicking but alas that is for another day. So here is my contribution to to the challenge with a little explanation.

Exhibit A:

This bird is just plain weird and who in their right mind would want something so fugly in their house? That would be my husband! Nasty isn't it.

Exhibit B:

What the HECK is this? If anybody has a clue please let us know as we have no idea what it is. It appears, to be made of ivory but we are not certain. It is bound at either end in leather and is quite big. Why do we have it? Again, ask the hubby. We inherited a few years ago and he thinks it is great even though he has no clue what it is. (Hubby just pointed out that we are not talking about the yardstick!)

That folks is enough of the freaky crap in my house for one day. Now please don't go and write any letters to the CCAA.

12 months ago

One year ago today we were jumping for joy. Our agency had notified us that we were officially DTC. We jumped up and down, celebrated to the hilt and started our wait. Who knew? So now here we are 12 months later bobbing around in a sea of uncertainty and I have to say it's not so much fun anymore. Yes, we will get our daughter and yes, it will be worth the wait, we know this. We only have to look at Lily and we know everything will be fine but for heavens sake, WHEN?
Even Lily doesn't ask to much about her sister much anymore. She named her Molly but I now think that she thinks Molly is just an imaginary sister because she never tells anyone about her the way she used to. The contractors showed up this week to do some work in the baby's' room and she wasn't even enthused about that and she used to ask us all the time if we could get it ready for her.
At this point in her adoption we had her referral. We hadn't traveled because of SARS but we were ready to go and get that little face in the photo who had stolen our hearts many months prior.
Where do we stand? Who knows. Our agency didn't even mention the wait times in their weekly letter but they keep saying for anyone logging into the system now they estimate the wait to be 18-24 months. So you would think that that must mean that we are getting closer but the rate and amount of referrals each month tells a different story.
The bottom line is this. Our fingerprints have expired. Yes we let them go as I could see no point in spending the money to redo them only to have to apply for a whole I-600a in March. The wonderful lady at our BCIS office told me she thought that was the best plan. There is no way we will travel before June so we are clear on that front. Our homestudy is updated and ready to be re-submitted with our I-600 application and we are just patiently (insert sarcastic laugh here) waiting for the next batch of referrals and then of course Chinese New Year as that always slows things down, (we will be going backwards soon) to see if there is any speed up or something that can offer all of us a glimmer of light at the end of this long tunnel.
I just noticed that according to our little ticker we are also celebrating our 11 month LID. So to all of you who keep asking what is going on and when are we getting our baby all I can say is, when, and only when, she is good and ready!

Sweat Shop

When I dreamt of becoming a mother there were certain things I couldn't wait to do. Some of them are obvious and some not so obvious but one of things I never thought of was making dolls clothes or Bunny clothes to be exact. Actually the very thought of such a thing fills me with fear as I cannot sew to save a life. Yes,I have a fancy fandangled sewing machine that my mother-in-law bought for me and I can use it as long as the thing that I am sewing consists of a straight line. So the other day when Lily came home from school and asked me to make her Bunny an outfit I wasn't quite sure what to do. At first I asked if one made out of paper would suffice but she said, no. So we pulled out the craft stuff and away we went. Little did I know that Lily wanted Haute Couture for The Bun. I suppose I should have known since it is Bunny and he ranks way above me and apparently he is now a she for the first time ever.I sewed and she decorated.She made a little pair of shoes all by herself and couldn't make them stay together so in the end she just taped them on to Bunny's feet it was hysterical so I helped her in the end by sewing them for her because she was getting so cross.

Field Trip

Today was Lily's first ever field trip and she even got to ride on one of those enormous yellow school buses....and so did I.We don't have them in England and I always thought they were the things of movies until I moved here and actually saw one. We went to see Mr Al who is a childrens performer and he is excellent and I highly recommend him if you ever get the chance to see him. I think that they were as excited about the bus as they were about Mr Al. We left the school bright and early and then had a picnic lunch as soon as we arrived at the auditorium and then it was showtime. All the kiddos were up and dancing around and singing. It was a wonderful day out for all of them and we parents had a great time too. I am so glad that her phenomenal teacher didn't just do the standard trip to the zoo.

Tongue Twisters

Tonight when Lily was in the bath she was telling me some of the Spanish words she had learnt today and I asked her if she has learnt to roll her "r"s yet. That led to about 10 minutes of the silliest fun I can remember. Due to the fact she was in the tub I don't want to post the video but I bribed her with an extra bed time story so that she would do some of it again once she was in her jim-jams. Apparently our little girl does not have the gene for tongue curling but she does have the gene for cracking me up.

The Diva's New Do

As I have mentioned many times Lily hair is a source of much turmoil in this house. Firstly it has taken her 4 1/2 years to grow all the hair that you can see. I have never cut huge amounts off of it, no sirree, that folks is it. She has had miniscule amounts trimmed off of the ends countless times to keep it healthy but nothing more than that and she knows that in order to let it grow she has to have it trimmed. Well, it appears that all of a sudden her hair is growing, (at this point a standing ovation would be in order) so her royal highness decided that she needed to get it trimmed "RIGHT NOW" so that it would grow even faster. So off we trotted to her hairstylist who she loves and got her a little trim. Lily loves the whole pampering scene but by far her favourite deal is a manicure and pedicure complete with the spa chair. Every night after her bath she gets a few minutes off deep tissue massage which she LOVES and she just lays there like a rag doll breathing really deeply. She is going to be one high maintenance woman one day!

Snip, Snip.

Sundays Are FUNDAYS

Sundays in this house mean as much craziness as we can possibly fit in to one day and yesterday was no exception. Jacob decided that we should go to a place that we used to go to back in our wild and crazy dating days even though they lasted for all of about 2 weeks but that is another story!! So we headed up to Fort Lauderdale to a place called Boomers which back in our day was this nasty little dive that consisted of a Go-Kart track. Jacob and I got kicked off of the track all the time because of his insubordination but now it is all fancy at least in the day time and has 5 crazy golf courses and loads of kiddie rides and all sorts of stuff that resemble Chuck-up Cheese, (Chuck E Cheese). Here is the day in pictures, the camera batteries went flat before we hit the golf course but that is probably a good thing because you have never seen such blatant cheating in your life!

Artiste At Work

The afternoon started as they usually do with Lily dressing up as a princess and then she decided she wanted to paint so I got out the painting stuff and off she went. She loves all crafts but really loves to paint sitting at her easel. She doesn't normally wear only her knickers when she is painting but this kid has an aversion to clothes and this is all she was in at the time and since I had no idea what was about to unfold I saw no reason to dress her in her Sunday best cos I thought this was just a video for us.

Oh, the little red chair that she is sitting on belonged to my hubbys aunt and is well over 60 yrs old and she painted it red when she was a little girl. I refuse to repaint it.

Just another picture or so I thought.

Odds and Ends

I am happy to report that the Froglets are still alive and kicking. I made a frantic phonecall to the help line this morning after I completed the reading material that came with them and found out that you are only supposed to house one, yes one, tadpole in the ecosphere and we have four. Come to find out we have the froglet digs so they will be just fine where they are and won't need to be upgraded to the fancy mansion however hubby and child have already picked out the next mansion so they will apparently be upgrading after all! They live a long and prosperous life.... oh darn it, if well cared for. Now I am wishing we had sprung for a puppy years ago. As for their names: Lily has named them after her friends at school. They are, Nico, Samantha, Natalie and last but not least, Froglet. She had named one after her but she changed it to froglet when it sprouted its funky little swimmy legs. She thinks these things are wonderful and who am I to dissuade her even though they make my skin crawl. When they morph into froglets I may have to move out cos the thought of froglets swimming around and "clapping their hands" (it says that in the book) is just plain nasty.

Note to Panda Cam Addict: Thanks for all of your comments. I cannot reply as your comments are not returnable. If you have a blog email me, the address is in my profile, and I would love to visit you.

And finally, I was tagged the other day by LaDyfrog and I have been delinquent in my duties so here is my meme. I think it that is what it is called. Actually I thought meme was another name for a childs pacifier but live and learn.


These are the instructions:
1) Find the nearest book (please try to keep it PG rated)
2) Open to page 123
3) Type lines 6-8 of said book
4) Tag three others


Mitch Albom. The Five People You Meet In Heaven

My children went there and their children and theirs. But not me. My idea of heaven was as far from the ocean as possible, back in that busy diner when my days were simple.

Tag 3 others.....well if you want to play along consider yourself tagged.
I confess to taking this off of the bookcase with my eyes closed since the closest book to me was a check book! Next one was the froglet book and it doesnt have enough pages. My reading material is next to my bed so that is not even remotely close to here.

Ok. Me thinks Me all caught up so good night!

Jacob Posts Again

Monday MLK day, no school for Lily. I had the day all planned out. We were going to go on the Glass Bottom boat tour at John Pennekamp in Key Largo. Well the weather was not great and there were three foot swells, (it was not my turn to chum the waters) so plan B. Arts and Crafts is always fun. In to Coconut Grove to a place called Color be Mine (www.colorbemine.com) Lily chose a tea cup (actually an espresso cup) and painted away. Lily painted few Lady Bugs on the cup and painted the saucer red. We had lots of fun and we also realize now that Lily has Picasso talent. My child is amazingly talented, bid for the Lily Picasso on e-bay.Dawn took the photo of the finished product and it doesn't do it justice but I don't have time right now to re-take one.She should be ashamed of herself.

Finally, A Pet For Lily.

Yes, you read that correctly, shocking isn't it?

It probably isn't what you would consider a pet but Lily is over the moon and all happy with herself and the credit goes to my dear friend Despo and her whacky gift giving knack. I received a voice message at 8.20 this morning from her but me being me never actually turned my phone on until 9.40! She said that we had to meet up today because Lilys Christmas gift had arrived at her house and it couldn't wait. I had a hectic day today and things weren't looking good for meeting up so she told me what it was and how this thing would die if Lily didn't get it today. Well, that is the kind of guilt trip I can do without so we drove over to her house after school so that Lily could receive her first ever pet, a froglet! I kept Lily in the dark and Despo's boys met us in the driveway all excited to see Lily and give her, her Froglet.

I have no idea what this container is for but the boys are giddy so I am too!

My very own FROGLETS, oh my! This is just way to exciting.


Photo Sharing - Upload Video - Video Sharing - Share Photos

After the excitement died down to a normal Lily level we drove home in hideous rush hour traffic and Lily watched over her 4 little froglets and I am happy to say they made it home OK with no evidence of motion sickness. She wanted very badly to have them in her bedroom so that they wouldnt be lonely while they slept but I managed to talk her out of it. As for Despo, yes, she is still a friend but yucky nasty froglets.....what was she thinking? She has some too and her boys are just as giddy as Lily is over them. She pulled me aside as we were leaving and said, someone told me they dont live very long. Oh great, I hope she tells Lily this!

These are special little tadpoles that grow into "froglets" and they stay in the water and dont grow very big. They came complete in this little kit with all the food and everything. It is actually rather clever but never the less the are a tad creepy as they are see thru, which of course my kid thinks is wonderful and she has already taken a magnifying glass to the poor little guys!

It's Not Child Labor If She Loves It !

I distinctly remember signing papers in China that said we would never force Lily into a life of servitude.
Well, nobody needs to know do they?

Art Festivals and Bike Riding

Yesterday was the Beaux Arts Festival at the Uni' of Miami. We went last year and had a really wonderful day and one of the things that Lily got to do was fill a bottle full of lots of different coloured sand. She thought it was fantastic and carried this bottle all around for the rest of the day as if it was made of diamonds. Sadly just as we were approaching the car I dropped it and it smashed into a cazillion pieces and she was devastated. Due to the fact that we were going somewhere else after the festival we didn't have time to go back and do another one. She cried for ages and I felt really awful. In fact she had never made me feel quite so terrible and the guilt got to me that I asked Jacob to take her back the next day just to do another one and of course being super dad, he did. I swear you would have thought I had killed her best friend she made such a fuss. So needless to say when she realised where we were yesterday she immediately wanted to fill another sand bottle and somehow managed to lead us to the mans stall. Not quite sure how she did it as we did not park in the same area this year!! Then she also remembered something that she had eaten there last year and wanted to eat it again. What is with this kids memory and can I borrow it or at least share it with her dad.

After the festival we went bike riding again with her new red helmet. Red is one of her favourite colours and she is convinced it always brings her luck and judging by her riding skills yesterday she just might be right. She only wiped out once and that time she ran me over and took us both out but neither one of us could stop laughing. Thankfully Jakey did NOT have the camera rolling!

I Don't Do Mornings

I don't do mornings, well at least I don't do them well. Granted I have always been the first one up and out of bed but I do not function for at least, this part is embarrassing, an hour. My whole family knows this and my in-laws know this and now sadly even my 4 year old knows this. Now that I am a mum you would think I am better but you would be wrong, very pathetically wrong. Jakey, on the other hand literally leaps out of bed in the morning and flies into action.......it is mind boggling to me and also if he speaks, rather annoying. When Lily wakes up she comes to our room and wakes me up if I am not already up and then we head down stairs I attempt to serve her juice and then I sit and wait for my coffee, which is more like roofing tar because I need all the help I can get. Lily stays away and then once the coffee cup is empty she starts her normal yipping. Sometimes I am amazed that she just doesn't go and find her daddy. This morning she was so quiet that I knew I should investigate but I couldnt actually figure out how my legs worked so I left her being quiet. Once I did wake up I went to see what she was doing and the child had this big tea party thing going on, complete with dolls on chairs and plates, the whole shebang. How does she do this all before 8am and she doesn't even drink coffee? I actually only drink decaff but I make it so nasty that it has the same eye opening effect as the ordinary stuff. Look at this grande affair and all before most people are even aware that they exist!

Bad Mummy

This is a post about what you are probably not supposed to do as a mum. I find it so hard not to laugh at Lily's antics because, (a) she is my child, (b) her cute little face and light up smile just get to me and finally (c) I am a very happy person who spends most of the time laughing and so does hubby who by the way is even worse than I am at keeping a straight face.

So this leads us back to when Andie was staying with us and she was on the computer with Lily hovering inches away from her and she found this little game that she had received in an email where you have to bash brussel sprouts before they get on your plate. Pretty harmless so we let Lily have a bash at it. Needless to say Lily loved it. Well, my dear cousin sang the theme tune to the game, just once and as she was singing it she realised that, that probably wasn't her most shining moment but it was to late, Lily had heard the words and they are now embedded in the deep recesses of her brain and she just blurts out this little diddy over and over again. Of course it might have something to do with Lily's repulsion of the veg but somehow I think it is the very last word in the song. So what did we do? Crack up laughing of course! I know it wasn't good and she is only 4 and there is plenty of time for such behaviour but honestly it isn't possible to keep a straight face all of the time. Oh and it gets worse I video taped her for everyone to hear.

If you also want to bash some sprouts here is the link: http://www.eyegas.com/xmas05/

WARNING: Not for little ears.(Nikki just because I have corrupted one Lily it doesn't mean I want to corrupt anymore of them!)

My BoBo Stick

One of the gifts that Lily received from Father Christmas was a PoGo stick, or as she calls it a BoBo stick. She has been asking for one for ages ever since she found out that her Auntie Sally had one when she was a littel girl. Auntie Sally however used to BoBo on my toes!

Father Christmas, found this one with the ball attachment and it was actually for 4 yr olds but it is still way to big for her but she loves it and is trying very hard to master it.

Little Monkey

This child of ours was born in the year of the horse but I swear she should have been a monkey. From day one she has been a climber and nothing stops her. One of the very first things I noticed about her was a very raw and red scar on the "bridge" of her nose that was both fresh and deep. When we met with the orphanage director she said that she had just had stitches removed from a nasty fall off of a table onto a chair and finally onto the floor. She was 14 months old. Her foster mother had turned her back for a second and Lily had managed this mountaineering feat. Did it scare her? Heck no. In fact I think it made her more curious and she just climbed even more. At the playground she always found a way to the top of stuff and scared the living daylights out of me. Jacob taught her how to climb and how to descend since it seemed the best way to deal with her however that didn't do much for making me feel better either. I would have heart attack after heart attack as I would see her climb to the top of all the equipment. This kid can slip her feet into the tiniest crevices for a foothold and just keep going.

Is something wrong Mama?

What are you doing up there Lily?

The Swing

Some incredibly sweet friends of ours who just happen to have 3 awfully large dogs, but more on that in a second, have just put a swing in their beautiful back garden. Now mind you this isn't an ordinary swing. They had to have special equipment to install it as it hangs in such a high tree. When you are swinging your tummy does flip flops just from the arc on it. It is wonderful and when you get going really high you can see over the fence and see the horses next door. They told me to bring Lily over to play on it and I did.

Oh yes the doggies. As I mentioned in an earlier post I have a very BIG fear of dogs due to the fact that I was bitten very badly when I was 5 by a neighbours dog that I had known my entire life. That did it for me and I have shaken in my shoes literally ever since when a dog is near, even our family pets. If you look at one of the photos you will see the biggest Doberman on the planet. Her name is Shadow and I have to give Shadow credit for turning my phobia of dogs into a sort of controlled fear. The first time I went to this house I think I nearly passed out but my friends new the deal with me and explained that their dogs are therapy dogs at Miami Childrens Hospital and would never hurt anyone. In my head I said, yeah right, the dog that bit me would never hurt anyone blah blah blah lady! But as the months went by and it has now been years I started to gingerly touch Shadow and she never even moved. Fast forward to now when I have to spend at least 5 minutes alone with Shadow when I go there with no other dogs around so her and I can have special time. Don't get me wrong, I am never left alone with her cos that is too freaky for me but this dog is beyond special and I can actually say that I care about her and that is something that I never thought I would ever say about a dog again. As for the Retriever, that is Miss Sophie and she is a hoot and couldnt hurt a fly if she tried. It is really hard for me not to show this fear to Lily and instead teach her respect but she wasnt fazed by the size of Shadow and Sophie at all and just loved the swing and the lounge chair, well until Sophie tried to climb on board as well.

Oh I did say 3 dogs, Snickers was feeling anti social that afternoon and chose to stay inside.

This is so much fun.

This Place Is A Circus

Warning To Connie: This post might contain CLOWNS, sorry.

When I grew up I was never allowed to go to the circus. My dad said they were run by gypsies and I just wasn't allowed to go. (He does sound like a snob,I agree) I was somewhat of a goody two shoes and so I never went. I knew when they came to town and heard all the comments that my dad made about the people but I wasn't even allowed to ride my bike to the park to see the tent so I never actually saw them.

Yesterday we took Lily to the "Greatest Show On Earth, Ringling Bros & Barnum and Bailey Circus" and I have to tell my dad something. "Daddy, there wasn't a gypsie to be seen, it was incredible and I had a wonderful time. Oh and Lily enjoyed it too!" Jacob set everything up and we got there early so that we, I mean Lily, could meet all of the characters and the animals before the show began. Then it was showtime and it was fantastic. Lily had a wonderful time she was mesmorized and I was very impressed too.
