Life with this Child of Mine

We may or may not ever be able to make an announcement that "we're pregnant"...but we have come to understand that the blessing is the fact that however parenthood happens, it is a miracle! ....... Now we have been home with our precious blessing from Russia since August 2007. Join us on our fun and crazy ride that we call "life with this child of mine."

to tide you over

I saw a friend (and former co-worker of mine) yesterday, and she fussed on me for my lack of posting, lately (okay...leslie...it wasn't fussing, but I took the hint! ;)). So I decided that I would share something Iliya said this morning that made me laugh. Maybe it will keep you here for another day or two while I finish up a longer, more substantive post.

Anyway, his current interest is the telephone. Everytime I receive a call or call someone, the first thing he asks is, "who called?" or "who's calling?" or "who did you call?"

A year or so ago, I gave him my old cell phone after taking the battery out of it. He's taken a huge interest in it, lately - wanting to call all sorts of people with it, and getting irritated when they don't actually talk back to him.

This morning, he picked it up and put it in his pocket (I wish I could demonstrate how he did this - but it was hilarious, watching him). He walked around for a couple minutes, with it in his pocket, and all the sudden, he stopped, put his hand down on his pocket (as though he was feeling vibration from the phone) and said, "Wait, Mama. I'm getting a call."
