Lets hope I stay safe.

Huckle: Mom, we can't break our legs.
Maer: Nope, we don't want to, do we?
H: If you break your leg, Daddy and I will be sad.
M: Will you take me to the hospital?
H: No, we'll get a new mommy.

Vital statistics

In February 2005, Huckle weighed 29 pounds and was 34 inches tall.

In November of 2006, Huckle weighed 36 pounds and was 36 inches tall.

In December of 2007, Huckle weighed 45 pounds (winter clothes) and was 43 inches tall.

Is it common for kids to grow barely at all from 18 to 39 months (this was his first time in foster care, then 4 months of reunification), then grow 7 inches in a year, or is something strange?

He's really flat footed.


Here's a pic.

I know a lot of people missed the photographs around finalization, so here's another one, also only for a limited time. Christmas morning. Note the Milkbone Dog Treat licenced pajamas. I couldn't resist.

Photo taken down! Thanks for your comments. He's sooo cute. *sigh*

Isn't this illegal?





I know it isn't right, but isn't it also illegal? Doesn't that count as discrimination? And instead of the same sex couple that was denied, Huckle went to the hetero couple that threw him out with nothing five days later, which led to him going into another foster home for a week (the one that was told he was a 1.5 hispanic boy), before coming to us.
