Just the Two of Us: August 2010
http://kamandem.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Just the Two of Us. Sunday, August 15, 2010. A New Kind of Room. We licensed for two children ages 0-2. The reason we agreed to license for two was so that we could keep siblings together if the situation arose. I was really nervous to start buying baby supplies. I thought it would be emotional and difficult. I thought it would be difficult to have an empty nursery in our home. I thought wrong. And the American Pediatric Society's Baby's First Year. Trying to figure out how to take care of a child. Cry, ...

Just the Two of Us: Nap Time
http://kamandem.blogspot.com/2011/01/nap-time.html
Just the Two of Us. Tuesday, January 25, 2011. It is 1:25 pm My favorite time of the day. Both kids are asleep. That's right- both. I still have my sweet little two month old baby girl, and two weeks ago we got a new addition- a firecracker two year old boy. Let's just say life is a little different than it was three weeks ago. One more thing. To all you moms with small children: my respect for you has gone up 150% Holy cow! Taking care of two little kids is HARD. But what an amazing work it is. So I hav...

Just the Two of Us: March 2010
http://kamandem.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Just the Two of Us. Sunday, March 14, 2010. I sewed curtains this week. Shocking, I know, but it's true. Eventhough I techincally only sewed four straight lines down each curtain I definitely think it counts. My friend, SarahAnne, is an amazing seamstress and graciously came over to help me get started. I think they turned out great- just don't get too close. They're drenched in mistakes. SarahAnne kept telling me that Monk. Friday, March 12, 2010. Because nothing that exciting is going on. The Two of Us.

Just the Two of Us. Monday, July 25, 2011. There is good news in our home! It looks like we are going to be able to adopt the sweet little boy we've had in our home since January of this year!

Just the Two of Us: Mommy Evolution
http://kamandem.blogspot.com/2011/03/mommy-evolution.html
Just the Two of Us. Wednesday, March 30, 2011. I still have my two sweet little foster kids. Unfortunately, I do not have any further news on whether adoption is in our future. I really wish we did. Baby sleeps through the night- hooray! Toddler still takes naps- double hooray! I am frequently puked on, drooled on, and have noses wiped on my shoulder. I change mass amounts of diapers a day- and I don't even flinch. I can recite Llama Llama Red Pajama, and countless Dr. Seuss books by heart. March 31, 201...

Just the Two of Us: November 2010
http://kamandem.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Just the Two of Us. Tuesday, November 30, 2010. Wednesday, November 17, 2010. When we signed up to work with an additional adoption agency, we thought it was high time we had some recent professional pictures taken of us and our home for our adoption profile. I've included the highlights- just in case you were curious. They were taken by my co-bear den leader (in cub scouts), Julie, of Madeline James Photography. Baby Gremlin is doing great! Sunday, November 7, 2010. So, if you're ever wondering what I'm...

Just the Two of Us: June 2010
http://kamandem.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Just the Two of Us. Sunday, June 27, 2010. My fabulous mother-in-law made me some beautiful pillows for my living room. I just had to show them off:. I had my second piano recital last night. I was, by far, my teacher's oldest student (the two boys sitting on the bench with me were the other students). Does that bother me? I kept plugging along, bought a piano (a steal off Craig's List), and tried to do better. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). BECAUSE I SAID SO. Home of the Harris'. Keia vs. Max. The Two of Us.

Just the Two of Us: April 2010
http://kamandem.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Just the Two of Us. Tuesday, April 27, 2010. I went to work the next day with a ginormous band-aid over my burn. A very interesting thing happened. If a female co-worker asked what happened and I told her I burned my arm on a cookie sheet she would say something nice like, "oh, I'm sorry" or "that looks like it hurts! On the other hand, if a male co-worker asked me what happened I would invariably get one of the following responses:. What kind of cookies did you make? Why didn't you bring in any cookies?

http://kamandem.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Just the Two of Us. Tuesday, April 26, 2011. Staring at my Baby. Then I spend time thinking about what her life would have been like if she had stayed with her mother. What would she be wearing? Would she be healthy? Would she be happy? I wonder what she would smell, see and hear all day. I feel so grateful she is in my care and I vow to be a better mother than before. As I stare at her I think about what is in store for her. Will she stay with me? Will she be placed with her father or with relatives?
