Another year has passed ...

Well, I'm finally getting active on my blog again ... again for 2009. Three kids has kicked this 40-year-old's butt! Sleep issues, health issues, school issues, extra activities, discipline, entertainment, safety. Oy, the list of parental duties goes on and on and on. Hence, I have not updated my blog for a year. My kids are now 7 1/2, 6, and 2 1/2, so I'm ready to blog.

Well, the picture on the left illustrates a problem, eh? Seriously, folks. My life is in danger here!

I'm back!

This is a picture of Jae from the fall. Notice the drool. My blog is back up and running. Once I get my Mac problems worked out, I'll be publishing regularly.

Coming through the haze

We are finally coming through the haze of jetlag and the shock of being a family of FIVE. It was a rough weekend, but we came out OK. I guess we'll just have to focus on getting ourselves on a schedule and in a routine over the next few months.

Tonight, Jae had solid food for the first time. He had a bowl of oatmeal, and you can look at the photo and bed the judge of how much he liked it. ;o)

We're home!!

Wow, does it feel good to be home. Someone (I think my friend Kym) once said, "no vacation feels as good as coming home does," and that is the truth. We travelled for 22 hours today, and finally got home at about 4:30 today. Thanks to my mother and my sister-in-law Debra, the girls are happy and healthy, and house looks fantastic. Without my mother and Debra, we would not have even been able to go and get Jae Joon Hwi.

Everyone was happy to meet Jae. I can't wait until you all meet him in person. Above is a picture I took right after we got home.

We're heading home!

It's 7:30 a.m. in Seoul on Wednedsay, which means it is 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday in Boston. From now until you hear from us we're traveling.
