Two and more!

Arman turned 2 on December 1st (these photos were taken in December of 2008). He is a happy, healthy, funny toddler who loves cars, trucks, helicopters, and other things that go!

I have not posted to this blog for a very long time. I had intended to keep it going after I brought Arman home, but you know what they say about the best laid plans of mice and men. I decided to make this addition to Arman's adoption blog because I have been giving the link to people when they ask to hear about my experience working with Children at Heart Adoption Services (I wholeheartedly recommend them, by the way). When I re-read the blog recently, I realized that I never posted a photo of Arman with my mom and dad. The family photo above is with my mom, dad, and my brother Paul. There are so many other photos I could post, but for now, I will limit myself to these two.

Arman and I moved to Manhattan in July, 2008 (he's gotten quite good at hailing a cab); this photo of Arman and me was taken in front of the Rock Center Christmas tree (thanks to Madi for taking the photo).

I am grateful to Janice and Kathy at Children at Heart and all the people at Shapagat Baby House in Karaganda, Kazakhstan who helped care for Arman and helped me adopt him. I am happy to answer any questions you may have about the adoption process and working with Children at Heart.
