Welcome

Welcome to my blog. This is a journal of things in my life during the adoption process. If you want to start at the beginning you need to read backwards. What this means is go to the archives (January 2006) and read through to current time. I enjoy reading your comments, so please post your thoughts for me to read. Colette

Like My New Hair Cut?


I took these pictures the day after Olivia got her hair cut. We were getting ready to leave for school.

Olivia Gets Her First Hair Cut





I took Olivia to my hair dresser for her first offical hair cut. Olivia did great! She would hold still when Tammy told her to. Olivia was so excited... she felt so big! The first couple of days after she got it cut she would tell people "I got my hair cut".

Play-Doh





Happy Birthday Bob!


Bob turned 43 on Saturday. We had yummy cheesecake. Olivia helped Daddy blow out the candles on the birthday cake. Olivia doesn't think it is a birthday if you don't have a cake..... so we just had to have cake, darn. Bob enjoyed watching the Sooners play football on tv, and he got a new BQ grill for his present.

Olivia's 1st Day of Pre-School





Olivia had a GREAT first day of school! I walked her into the class room. Right after I got there a mom left her son. The son started crying real hard, then two other boys started crying. I stayed and watched Olivia play for about 5 minutes. Then I kissed her and told her bye bye. She said "Bye bye Mommy".
When I picked her up she was like "Hi Mommy". She acted like it was no big deal. The teacher said she did great! She never cried or got upset once. When I put her in the car she said to me "Mommy you came back for me" and smiled. I hope Thursday she does as well.
