Hooray, hooray its update day!

I was sooooo hoping that we would get something this morning and we did!!  Sweet Ching Lin looks as adorable as ever, hair is totally wild, love it!!  I know it sounds silly but I was a teenie tiny bit disappointed that she wasn't in one of the outfits we sent, I wonder if maybe its because they like to have the babies legs showing?  I think this photo would have been from the end of October so I don't think the bare legs would be because of the heat, I'll have to check WeatherUnderground to see what it says.  Although come to think of it we had photos of Beau in full outfits so probably its just random! Anyway the polka dots are super cute (does anyone recognize this as an outfit they sent to their baby and left behind?)

If this photo is from the end of October (the same as the measurements that came last week) then she was probably just about to be moved to her foster family, she is lying on the exact same blankie and bed as the last update so I think she was still at the nursery when they took this photo. When she is moved I hope she settles in quickly its a big change for a little baby.  I'm hoping she might go to the same foster family as Beau but I guess it depends on whether they had space.  I'll have to go back and check but I think I may have a photo of Beau on this blanket and bed.

Enough rambling here she is, our little sweetie pie with her cute, chubby little baby legs. Love the way it looks like she is waving to us.   Still can not believe this is really happening!

Calling for backup!

Hello?  Is this the Nomby Bomby Help Line?  Its my Mum she doesn't know when to admit defeat, she types one sentence and a photo and calls it a post, please send help quick!  Oh and if you can pull any strings update photos of Baby Sis would be good too :)

Santa's naughty little helper!

No update photos of "Amy Sparkles" (bummer) I was really hoping there might be some yesterday but no such luck so now I'm keeping my fingers crossed for Monday!!!

In the meantime here is a photo from yesterday, we spent the day at Natick Mall in MA and it was fabulous, I always get giddy when I get to visit civilization, talk about Country Mouse.  Back in our NJ days I wouldn't have batted an eye at this Mall but after 10 years in the depths of darkest CT it was like being dazzled by the bright lights of the big city, everything was sooooooo purdy!

Here is Beau getting a word in early with the Big Man, I'm hoping no-one from the American Girl* store is seeing this because if you look closely you will see Beau is handling stolen goods (that's my boy), just a little something he pilfered earlier in the day.  Takes a lot of chutzpah to pay a visit to Santa with hot merchandise in your sticky little mitts!

Father Christmas & BB

p.s Before anyone thinks I skipped a day of Nobbly Bobbly I want to explain that I really didn't, its just that I added yesterday's (wee hours of the morning) post onto the post of the day before.  Okay just wanted to clear that up before the Nibbly Bibbly police come round to try to disqualify me.

*In case you do happen to be a representative of American Girl I promise we will be mailing back the missing record from Julie's Bedroom Collection

Update - kinda!

Just got a measurement update for "Amy Sparkles" but no photos yet "sob".  Its 3.00 am Friday morning in Taiwan right now so I'm hoping and hoping that we will get photos and video tomorrow, pretty please!  Of course tomorrow is going to be one of those rare days when I probably won''t have access to my computer for most of the day - gah!  I know our case worker often works late hours, infact last month she emailed us photos and video at 11.50 pm (thank you, thank you) so its just possible they could come through this evening - probably not likely but just possible enough to keep me checking and re-checking emails.

In the meantime I'm studying those measurements, they are always nearly a month behind so the ones we got today were taken October 29 and (if I've done the conversions correctly) show her height as 24" and weight at 13.23lbs.   So I'm guessing that right now she is 14lbs. 

Keeping everything crossed for photos very, very soon!

Its 1.00am and I'm updating my post about updates!  Couldn't sleep so had to come down and check just on the off chance that our case worker was pulling a late one again and received photos from Taiwan and forwarded to us, but alas no.  Well good for her that she isn't working crazy hours today but boo hoo for me that there are no photos.  Its 2.00pm Friday in Taiwan right now so if they aren't in our CWs email box first thing this morning than we definitely won't see anything until next week at the earliest.  I "almost" wish we hadn't had the measurement update because its put me on super alert for the photos whereas before they appeared I was just quietly thinking that it was getting to be around update time, now I'm desperate "super alert" for them!  I have to head out first thing tomorrow, I mean this morning and I won't be able to get to my computer till this evening to check, oh the sweet, sweet agony of update day!

Crumbling!

I'm crumbling fast, no time to think of coherent posts, no time even for incoherent.  November is such a terrible month for Nobbie Bloggie, February would be much more sensible, in February I would be able to write pages of amazing posts, pages and pages, but its not February its November so you'll have to make do with an old video because its all I've got and its already loaded on you tube so love it or leave it but its all I got.

p.s That's "a mouse-ie song" she switches to at the end, as in mice - they are her obsession.

Beautiful Taiwan

Beautiful Taiwan we miss you!  It was such a whirlwind trip to Taiwan last year, traveling half way round the world with your 3 year old to meet your 7 month old baby for the first time is seriously exhausting but also seriously wonderful and we fell in love with not just Beau but also Taiwan, beautiful, beautiful Taiwan.

Move along now, nothing to see here

I've got nothing, not a photo, not a video clip, certainly not a post, too tired to make my brain work, so this is my official Nomby Plomby free pass! I'd like to be able to say I'll be back tomorrow with a rip roaring-ly excellent post but I think the chances might be slim on the rip roaring side, never the less I will be back, I might be a slacker but when I start a Nomby Pomby by heavens I finish a Nomby Pomby.

See ya tomorrow!
