Randy and Susan's Adoption Journey Version 2.0: Pick Ourselves Up and Move Forward
http://journey-to-adopt.blogspot.com/2008/01/pick-ourselves-up-and-move-forward.html
Saturday, January 5, 2008. Pick Ourselves Up and Move Forward. First of all, thank you so much for all the emails and comments of support! They really mean a lot. My friends Melissa and Robin came over last night and brought me Ben and Jerry's ice cream, chocolate cake, and Dove dark chocolate candies. They said they couldn't let me have a pity party without the essentials. It still feels like the news yesterday was just a bad dream and I'll wake up from it. January 5, 2008 at 12:15 PM. Hang tough and ta...

Journey To My Little Russian Princess: March 2009
http://sfrederickfamily.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Journey To My Little Russian Princess. Monday, March 9, 2009. We made it safely home late night on March 3rd, and as you can imagine, have been busy ever since trying to adjust to life at home and a new routine. Thank you to all of you for your support and prayers as we traveled back to Michigan from Russia. Once in Atlanta we had to go through passport control, then immigration, and finally customs where we had to get our luggage and recheck it in for our final flight to Detroit. All went smoothly&#...

Keeping up with the Johnsons: Halloween Pictures
http://followingthejohnsons.blogspot.com/2012/11/halloween-pictures.html
Keeping up with the Johnsons. See what we've been up to since Nickolas came home from Russia. Sunday, November 4, 2012. He had a great time and started running when he realized he got candy at every house. His bucket got weighed down pretty quick but he wouldn't let me or my mom carry it. I think he managed to inhale four or five pieces of candy from the time we got home until I had his bath ready. Anyone who knows me knows he is definitely my son. I love anything chocolate! Here are Halloween pictures:.

http://sfrederickfamily.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Journey To My Little Russian Princess. Thursday, October 9, 2008. Almost two weeks home from trip one. Aside from recovering from Jet Lag, which seemed to last for a week, and running around with paperwork, I returned to work and had a wonderful baby shower thrown by my church. The folks at Grace United Methodist Church are so loving and giving. I was overwhelmed by their love and generosity this past Sunday. And now to the pics of Krasnoyarsk:. This is the Hotel Sibier where I stayed. Bye for now,.

Adoption Beefstew, Round 2. Friday, September 30, 2011. So, 3 hrs down and 3 signatures without even seeing a doc! Good Then we waited some more.

Tomorrow, Sasha picks me up at 7am for my 12hr flight back to Houston, 6-hr layover and then should land in Nashville around 10pm. Cannot wait to give Clare so many hugs and kisses. She will be sl...Ascen...

Wednesday, September 29, 2010. He's signing and saying "please" when he wanted help. And while Artem was busy climbing trees. Look who was busy trying on his big brother's sunglasses. Looks like we need to get Andrik his own sunglasses. Sunday, September 26, 2010. Getting into his big brother's train pieces. After bath he is loving when we put lotion on him. I massage his legs and arms with lotion and he goes limp and is so relaxed when I'm massaging him. It's sad to think that this is probably t...We go...
