Good Morning Everyone! I missed you all last weekend and have been really looking forward to today : )
I have 3 questions that I would like some help with. I can't seem to be able to find Kate from 'A Special Family'. We used to e-mail back and forth and I had access to her new blog, but it has been months now and I haven't heard from her, I can't get to her blog and I am worried. Does anyone know where she is?
Also, what is going on with blogger? I can't add anyone to my favorite blogs or make changes to the bottom of my blog.
Also, what is everyone using for a music player since e-snips doesn't auto play anymore? I got a good suggestion from Cougchick, but I couldn't get it set up right. Maybe I should get Tim to help me.
If you are new to the chat group, just go in to post a comment and you will see everyone in there talking.
If you would like a blue or yellow Saturday Morning Chat link for you sidebar, just let me know and I will e-mail to you : )
And a very special Thank you to Lisa from 'Osborn Odds 'N Ends' for sending me the best coffee I have ever had in my life. I am drinking it this morning and savoring every drop!

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 287 of 287Good morning ladies!
wow alot happened while I was cookong breakfast!
Heather your girls are beautiful!
Verna Ilove seeing the updates of Noah and Mya I went to some of your travelers blogs and LOVE the red couch picture with him front and center!!
What's up with nasty comments - are they from people the blogger knows or strangers? I haven't experienced this yet but know so many that have - i just don't get much traffic, so maybe I am not as vulnerable
Good morning to anyone I might have missed I am trying to catch up but there are lots of comments!
What is the Mr. Brian blog name?
What was for breakfast? And you may have already covered this but what is the news on Savannah - I have been praying for her since I saw it on Gwen's blog - but it fell off my prayer list a few weeks ago - blogger is crazy - you just reminded me I need to fix that
I'm trying to go back and catch up, looks like I've missed a lot this morning.
Hey all, we're back from gymnastics class. It didn't go so well, but I survived.
Heather the news on Savannah-Hope is I am traveling to her on march 17th!! please feel free to check out all the news and pictures at

Good morning Ladies! I've tried to read most of your posts.
Just checking in and wanted to say hello. I also can't access my sidebar stuff on my blog, it's weird.
I use playlist.com for music, it's pretty easy to figure out. :)
Senja's blog is mrbriansfanclub.blogspot.com
She writes it for Mr. Brian, but you can reach her there if you need to I'm sure.
She is a great writer and a great supporter of the people in our community. I miss her too.
Heather-thank you on my cuties. I think yours are darling too.
I really miss Senja too. I emailed Rony 2 days ago and asked about her. She said Sen was just fine. :)
Hi Marla! I almost missed your comment there! How are you doing this morning?
Oh my goodness - March 17 - WAHOO! Oh how exciting...that is wonderful news - I will be by to check it out!
Good Morning Gail! How are you?
Verna,
Your travel group included six families whose children are from my new daughter's CWI (Ningdu) -- I loved seeing all of those Ningdu girls with their new families -- and cannot wait to travel to Nanchang to pick up my little sweetheart!
So, I refreshed my screen and it has about 10 comments on there and an older/oldest option at the bottom. When did that start????!!! Nice bu weird to have it hapen in the middle of the chat.
What happened at gymnastics Kelly?
Gotta go! Chloe needs a little TLC and cuddle time with Mama...see you all later! Have a wonderful week!
Blogger just started doing that over the past month. I think it happens when I hit 200 comments. It just starts breaking them up. I like it because I don't have to scroll through all of the comments to get to the bottom and you can scroll back if you want to.
Have a great weekend Kelley. I hope that Chloe is feeling better soon.
Wow, the 17th, how exciting!!!!
I'm doing well Kim, thanks for asking. So sick of the snow here. Grace and I went to see my parents yesterday for my Mom's bday. They live about an hour south of Madison. They have hardly any snow, I did feel like Spring would come some day.!
Well, let's just say that Miss Katie has a really strong will, and didn't want to do anything she was requested to do. That makes it tough for Mommy.
She had about 15 tantrums when things didn't go her way, which is very unusual for her (she's probably coming down with something...great).
The travel group was fun. Some really crazy folks in there. n is on my lap BRB
I find myself a little envious of those of you waiting to travel. I will never forget how exciting those weeks (and months) of preparing were. :)
I missed everyone the past two Saturdays -- but the cruise was fantastic and the weather was SO lovely.
Gail,
I just love your photos of Grace on your header. Did you take those or are they professional?
My litle Bella wants to play my little pony so i am giving up the computer. Have a wonderful weekend!
Thank you Kim, they were professional photos. They were taken when Grace turned 5 last August. Maybe I'll put a link on my blog to the awesome lady who took them. She has a blog and even featured Miss Grace on it.
The mailman just came with a box for the Starfish babes!
You have to be on a first name basis with your mailman by now!
I sent Zach out to him because I am still in my pajamas, but I really should thank him for all of the extra work. He has been bringing boxes almost every day for a month now.
Have a great weekend Crystal!
Hey, Katie is walking around the house with a pacifier in her mouth. She's never had a pacifier (to my knowledge), but she found one that I had purchased before we traveled for her. It looks cute, but funny at the same time!
Think I am gonna hit the gym now before the boys get back from the hills.
Have a good week all.
I have ACR's for kids I barely know this week. Pray all goes well.
Kelly,
Is K1 still in Honduras?
How great, another box! I hope the packing is going well, God bless your heart for doing this.
You know, K1 left while we were still gone, and she didn't leave her itinerary. I would guess her mission trip was a week long, which brings her home today. I don't know for sure, though!
Bye Nancy, have a great weekend and good luck writing those APR's for the kids you don't know!
Oooops, I just noticed the time. I have an appt to get these unruly brows waxed in an hour so I'd better go get a shower. Have a wonderful weekend all!
That's great that you got another box. :)
I'm going to post more pics of the kids --catch you in a few
The box is from Carolyn at 'China Calling'. She sent a lot of wonderful boys clothing.
This isn't a big deal, but I got my hair cut Thursday it's much shorter. I don't think I really like it, but I'm sure I will get used to it. It will always grow out.
Kimberley, how many bloggers have you met in real life? Just curious. If any of you are in the Madison WI area or near it, I'd love to meet you. We go to Chicago frequently and we could meet there too.
Have a great weekend Marla! Enjoy taming those brows! I know how that goes.
Kimberley, I got a kick out of your "from the Sisters" comment about our donation.
Makes me feel like one of those closet alcoholic old ladies from the Waltons!
Kelly,
I went over to your blog to see your new hairstyle, but no pics.
I'll see you tomorrow. I'm sure it looks great. I have to do a major cut once a year to keep my ends healthy.
I have met 5 bloggers.
I have met Kelly from 'Katie's Antics'
Steffie from 'Never Too Many'
Gwen from 'Team Oatsvall'
Nancy from 'Asennd'
And Becky from 'And Chloe Makes Six'
Okay, off to the food store for comfort items:)
Have a great week everyone - ooooh a new box, so great to see so many united for such great kids.
Thanks and thank RMJ for giving us this space to get together - I have to tell you, made for a great morning for me - very sweet, nice to meet those of you I've not met before.
Kelly,
I saw that comment about being 'the sisters'. I loved those ladies on the Waltons, but I didn't have them in mind when I wrote that.
I always think of you guys as 'the sisters'
Have a great weekend Heather!
Verna,
I'll come over to see your new pics!
Well, I should get working on the next Disney post -- I want to get those pictures uploaded before Blogger gets too busy and won't cooperate.
I might check back.
I hope everyone has a great day!
Bye everyone! I need to get my house picked up and have to go to my most(not)favorite place...the grocery store. Yuck. Have a great weekend!
Have a great weekend Kelly and Gail!
I'll see you tomorrow Kelly : )
OK, done posting. RMJ-you will love the outfit Keith put on NOah today.
Ok, I'm coming over to see~
I am back.. just taking a little break ... while the floor dries in half of the house..
Then will start on the other half... going to get caught up on what I missed...
Hi Kim,
It got pretty quiet. I'm glad you are here!
Think I'll say good bye. Got a few things to do this morning and have little ones tugging on me. So, progress is slow. Have a great day!!
Have a great day Verna!
Sounds like you got another box... how many are left..??
Can't wait to see all the kids in the clothes...that will be exciting..
What are you doing today???any hockey or games today...
Boys doing anything..
Do you have your step-daughter this weekend..
I think that there is just one box left that isn't here yet. I will do another post to make sure though.
Today is quiet. Zach has a hockey game tomorrow after church, but nothing today.
We don't have my stepdaughter very often. Our house isn't as appealing since we will not allow her to go out on dates alone with her 17 year old boyfriend in his car. She is only 15 years old and we do not agree with that. So, she stays at her mother's where she can do whatever she likes.
I am hoping that one day she will look back and see the love and concern in our rules.
WOW.. I can't believe how much we have in comman... We haven't seen John's daughter since Oct. 7 of 2006...due to the fact that she didn't like to follow the house rules..
I feel sorry for my husband.. I know when Isabella gets here he will be over joyed...
The boys don't have their dad so that helps a little.. they look up to him sooo much...
KyLee adores him also even though she has her father..but we all get along so it helps a lot..
I'm back...I finished my Disney pix for today. My oldest son is amazed that I post as many pictures as I do.
So where are all the West Coasters?
Good Morning,
Hi Crystal:) RMJ, hope you are doing well...love the blog as always!
The West Coasters should be hitting any minute now.
il4r
The above is "hello" from Katie!
(who, BTW is trying to drink my coffee, which she recently started calling "tastes good")
How are you Leigh Ann! Your blog is always so cute. I love your graphics!
It does taste good I must say, especially the brew I'm having this morning from San Antonio TX
Love the Disney post.. those are amazing pictures...
LOVE the little towel animals..
Thanks...here's one west coaster! Ya know you inspired me...I created my weight loss blog with this chat group theory in mind. All of the women involved really like it.
That is wonderful Leigh Ann, you know, it was so funny. It took me forever to figure out that was you!
Kim~ it is a sad thing.. John's daughter's mother has never been remarried or anything... so I guess you just hope and pray that she turns out okay...
Enough of the sad stuff...
I am off to clean the living -dining room area.. and then mop in there.. All done after that..
YEAH!!!
I will post later of our Bday/Friend dinner tonight..
Have a Great Day ladies..
Don't forget to email me Kim...
Kim, you know, when you take as many pictures as I do, it's not hard to find some good ones to post -- but most don't turn out as well!
I will send you an e-mail Kim. Have a great time tonight!
You take great pictures Kelly!
Yes, it me...and it's funny cause, I call both Crystal and Gwen my sister in law. I am married to Gwen's brother and Crystal is Gwen's husbands sister. It's a win win!
They are great women. Crystal was on earlier, but left. It sounds like Savannah Hope will be home soon.
Yes, we are very excited for them...they are great! We will be home with them in a couple of months when we transfer. Well, I am going to sign off and try to get some stuff. Have a great day, all!
Alrighty ladies, it's time for me to get on with my day. My youngest son has a three hour baseball tryout today (and he hasn't touched his glove since the season ended last summer!).
Have a great day everyone!
Oops, meant to say goodbye with that last post.
Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!
WOW! Chat was CRAZY busy this morning. Aren't you ever popular with 286 comments! :) Sorry I missed it, and I know it's closed, but hopefully you still check your comments. 'Cause speaking of looking for a blogger: do you happen to have an email for 'girl of 1000 blogs'? If so...could you tell her to send it to me: rach.wanted4@gmail.com
Thanks!!! And, WOW too on your Starfish fundraiser. Amazing response.
