Adoption journey

[dreamofabean]

Lolly I've said it before and I'll say it again: make sure you are resting honey! I'm so glad your mom is with you to help out too! Little pink will be just fine, don't you worry!
As for baby blue, he's just showing who is boss! Obviously not as laid back as his sister! Ha ha. All is going to be just fine: I know these things! sending you all lots of love though honey
Little man is well and truly on the mend! Still a bit snotty but sleeping and his cheeky character is back x

 

[Lolly1985]

Ahh thank you so much Dream, I really don't know what I would do without you! So glad to hear little man is getting there, poor thing has suffered this time, must be lovely to see him perking up

 

[aimze]

Lolly sending positive thoughts for you, when are you being checked again? Xx

 

[Lolly1985]

Tomorrow morning Aimze, thanks hun xxx

 

[Rainy123]

Thanks for information on meeting medical advisor. The boys don't appear to be too complex in that respect but I am vey excited just to find out more about them.

So sorry to hear about the hospital visit, lolly. Hope things are better and all goes well today

 

[aimze]

Rainy hope the medical goes well so exciting the balls rolling!

Lolly I really hope today goes well, please update us as soon as you know anything

So works all done now for 12 months, spending my day washing LOs clothes ready yay! X

Thinking of you Lolly.
And still following all of you fabulous ladies :wave:

 

[Lolly1985]

Thanks guys! Well plodding on, no change which is good. I hate I can't do things for my baby girl, like simply lift her into her highchair or into bed at night But loads of cuddles on the sofa and bed, stories, singing, and watching her run outside. Love her so much, feel guilty. But everyone says that's all in my head, she's just fine! And they're probably right. Eeek, less than a week until final hearing

How is everyone? xxx

doing ok here. supposed to have a visit Friday night and they pick him up from daycare and drop him off at home when hes done but we got a phone call at 6:00 asking if we were going to come get him because they were closing! CPS never came to get him and never notified US that they weren't coming!I haven't called anyone or sent an email because I am choosing my words wisely!

 

[aimze]

Lola that's awful them leaving poor baby waiting!!!

Hope everyone's ok & uk ladies enjoying bank holiday!! X

Hi everyone
Lolly that's fab, final hearing will be here before you know it!! Do you have a date for celebration heating yet??
Aimze eek! Finishing work is such a milestone! When do you meet your precious boy? Must be imminent!!
Lola that's so naughty, very bad form!
Hi everyone else hope you're all well??
We've been all good here, little man is becoming very vocal which I love! He's constantly babbling and repeating sounds! We not have 'dis' for this, and 'dat' for that, and 'dandad' love it!!
He's suddenly taken an interest in his family book that we made (in addition to talking book). We keep it with his books on a ledge in th conservatory and he's taken to pulling it down and pointing at the pictures and babbling away so cute! If you ask him where mommy is he will point at me etc, clever little man
We had a bit of a scare this morning! My mom called to say don't panic, but she and her oh had been in a car crash and although she felt fine she was stuck and they were going to cut her out! Luckily we love super close so my dh went straight to the scene so he could update all the family. They're both very sore and have whiplash but ok thankfully! The car is a total mess but that's what insurance is for eh?! Some silly driver not paying attention is sadly all it takes! Very scary though, makes you realise just how fragile life can be!!
Other than that no news here! I had to pop into work this week to confirm my return date and sort new hours out. I went home in a foul mood and just wanted to sob! I just can't bear the thought of leaving my boy! I return on 14th July for a week and a day, that way I will be paid for the summer holidays, makes a huge difference! Then back properly in sept for 3 days a week. Boo!!!!
I've been discussing with dh when we will adopt again as I desperately don't want littlie to be an only child. We've agreed that we will give it serious thought after christmas. I know it's still early days with little man, but I want him to grow up with a sibling, rather than there be a huge age gap and them not mix as well as they could have. I'm a total control freak so it's nice to have a mini plan in place! Ha ha.

Lolly I hope everything is ok for you, hope everyone else has had a good weekend. We've had a very busy weekend with ff it's as really nice to see them all and we just consider them friends now that hopefully will be a part falloff our lives.

 

[Lolly1985]

Oh god Dream how terrible I'm so glad they're ok, what an awful phonecall although of course could have been much worse. Puts everything in prespective. So glad to hear your baby boy updates, he's a super clever little star! Love him, Heehee! Wow to making plans, I think a plan is important, just a loose one, but I like to know where I'm headed! I'm already excited for you

Hope everyone is well, thanks again for all the well wishes

 

[Monkey78]

Oh Dream that is awful, I hope your mum and oh are ok, glad that you live so close. Must be really hard having to think about going back to work for you thinking of you, but at least its not for long and you can then have summer hols off.

Lolly sorry to hear you were in hospital Hun, hope you arenok and are resting up xx

Hi everyone else hope you had lovely weekends. Ive had MIL staying all wknd, which to be fair has been really nice. No news on our 3 month, we are waiting for the placement order, and then they can release the CPR to us.

Xx

 

[aimze]

Dream that must have been a awful shock! Glad they're ok!

I think it's great news you're going to consider umber two after Xmas wahoo!

Monkey hope you hear soon! Such little bundle!

Lolly hope you and baby are ok and having lots of rest!

[LolaM]

the worst has happened--baby boy will be going to live with an unsavory relative, the WORST sort of person! horrible temperament, nasty temper, we have had him for ALMOST a year, and I guess the judge ordered CPS to hand them over, our worker said she wasn't going to hand the kids over until the judge ordered it, I guess she wasn't kidding, we just didn't know how soon it would be. I am livid, I feel that the judge is ignoring important facts and the workers didn't do their job and this case has been allowed to go on for too long!
