Our Autumn Dreams Website is Up and Running

After we submitted our paperwork to China, I joined a Yahoo Group called October DTC 2005. This is a group of people that all had their paperwork submitted to China at the same time. We will all be receiving our Referrals at the same time and may even meet up in China when we pick up our babies.

They have developed a website just for us. It is called Autumn Dreams. I wanted to share it with you. This will be a very exciting page once we all receive our referrals. It will be the first glimpse of our beautiful babies.

The URL is http://www.geocities.com/autumndreams2005dtc/.

Chinese New Year is January 29, 2006

We are not sure when Katy will be born, but I have been doing some research and found this info on what the Calender Symbol for 2006 and 2005 are. Depending on what year she is born she will either grow up to be like Donald Trump or Emeril Lagasse. Whatever she is I hope she is happy and healthy.

Year of the Dog - 2006

Dogs are honest and faithful to those they love but they tend to worry too much and find fault with others. They make ideal secret agents or business people.

Famous people born in the Year Of The Dog:
Shirley MacLain, Henry Cooper, Slyvia Sims,Dolly Parton, Liza Minelli Jane Asher

Year of the Rooster - 2005

The sign of the Rooster indicates a person who is hard-working and definite about their decisions. Roosters are not afraid to speak their minds and can therefore sometimes come across as boastful. They make good restaurant owners and world travellers.

Famous people born in the Year Of The Rooster:
Michael Aspel, Yoko Ono,Rod Stewart, Mia Farrow, Eric Clapton

Thank you again Secret Pal

My October DTC Secret Pal sent me this wonderful gift for Janary. The pink blanket is my favorite. You can't see it, but it says "I Love Mommy" on the blanket. This brought tears to my eyes because it is my first item that says those words. I have waited a long time to hear that.

Thanks again Secret Pal for your thoughtfulness.

A Happy New Year

I know this is a little late, but I wanted to post it anyway. We had a wonderful New Year's Eve at our neighbor/friends house. This picture was taken just after 12:00 am. The group is our very good friends that live in our neighborhood. I have to say that Katy is going to enjoy her new home and friends. We live in the greatest neighborhood in America.

Thank you P & H for hosting such a fun party. Can't wait until next year when Katy is going to be in that picture. (If she's not asleep already.)
