    Home from China!

    We've been home for a little over a week. The trip was an incredible experience, and all of the adoption procedures went smoothly. Our son is now adapting very well to his new home.We are (as you might imagine) very busy with the whole parenthood thing, but it's going great.

    Haven't really posted much about what is going on here lately. So here's the recap:

    Adoption: We're just waiting for the travel date. We could hear any time. Literally. It could be tomorrow. In the meantime, we're doing lots of little things to get ready, including taking Mandarin language classes twice...

    This adorable rhyming Halloween tale has been a runaway hit with my 18-month-old son at storytime.

    When the Baxter children find an enormous pumpkin growing on a hillside above their farm, Little Lil knows they're in for trouble. And sure enough, her brothers twist the pumpkin loose from its vine and set it careening toward the farm and on a path of mayhem.

    It's up to Papa Baxter to stop the Halloween avalanche in time for Granny to fix up all of the family's favorite pumpkin dishes for dinner.

    With its clever rhyme scheme and tongue-twisting chorus, Kevin Lewis' story is perfect for reading aloud...

    Congratulations to you and your family for your new addition. I'll be looking forward to reading about the journey both to China and with your little guy. We were planning on visiting China last May but my mom got sick. We're hoping to go in 2011.
