Our Chinese Takeout: May 2008

http://ourchinesetakeout.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html

Wednesday, May 28, 2008. What We've Been Up To. All the kids are playing Airplane on the back porch. Makes me so happy to see all of them playing together, pretending from Landon down to Nolan! Look out below, Lorelei's the pilot! Lorelei in the driver's seat again! Nolan loves to wrestle and play which is perfect. Because we do a lot of that around here and he jumps right in! He was not too thrilled about it and moved on to something else after a few bites. Isn't there famous statue that looks like this?

Our Chinese Takeout: September 2008

http://ourchinesetakeout.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html

Thursday, September 18, 2008. Belated Post. Nolan's been home 6 Months now! I've been cleaning out the dress up clothes. This elephant has been around since Landon was 2 or 3 and every once in awhile they all squeeze into it. No one has ever worn it out of the house. there is just something about it that bothers me. ;-). I see a Firefighter Calendar in his future! I am so proud of Landon, Summerlyn. Even after 6 months they still happily help Nolan. Whenever he needs it (most of the time). But for every ...

http://ourchinesetakeout.blogspot.com/2009/01/look-back-over-2008.html

Wednesday, January 7, 2009. A Look Back Over 2008. The year started out waiting, waiting, waiting, to finally receive. Official approval from China that Nolan was ours. This took SIX weeks longer than expected. Apparently, someone took a very long vaca. While our paperwork collected dust on their desk, at least that is the reason we were given! Finally, after celebrating Milton's 40 th. On the 23rd of January, (I've looked for pics from the party we had for the BIG bday. In the meantime, our 12 th. 10 Da...

Our Chinese Takeout: April 2008

http://ourchinesetakeout.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html

Monday, April 28, 2008. Today was Nolan's appt to find out about his heart murmur. He had an EKG and a an echo done. The murmur was confirmed and is something he will always have, however, it is not anything to be concerned about and no further follow up is needed. God is so good! When the nurse was leaving the room, Nolan said, "bye bye, love you." He thinks that, "love you" always comes after "bye bye" copying what he hears at home. So cute! It's a good thing we don't swear!

Saturday, November 29, 2008. So good to start the holiday season off this year! Last year at this time we were waiting to bring Nolan home, and after some unexpected delays the Christmas season was not very joyful. But this year, this first picture makes me SO happy! SIX stockings hung by the fireplace! Nolan proudly shows us over and over which stocking belongs to him. It's the biggest one, all the way on the right. Playing with Daddy's Christmas village. First trip to pick out the Christmas tree. When ...
