Q&A

Soooooooo I totally forgot to post my Q&A stuff. Here are all of the questions that people have asked in the comments of the blog over the past year. It was fun to go back and see what everyone had asked.

Flutie asked:
Q: What were your feelings immediately before and after meeting Lilly?
A: Before meeting Lilly I was in total shock that we actually got 'the call' and we were going to be parents. I was so excited and anxious and just filled with awe that Lilly's birthmother had picked us. After meeting Lilly I was totally in love and felt so comforted in our journey to build our family through adoption. Lilly of course was the most beautiful baby I had ever seen and still is :) I felt totally at peace.
Q: What is the last thing you think of before you fall asleep at night?
A: Usually, oh man I have to wake up in 5 hours! I hope Lilly sleeps in (never happens) or sometimes I don't sleep and just think all night (I'm not a very good sleeper)
Q: What/where are some places you can't wait to visit?
A: I've always wanted to go someplace tropical, or Ireland. I also can't wait to visit Washington in a couple of weeks!
Angie asked:
Q: Can I make mom make you play with me (like when we were kids)?
A: If Mom will watch the kids, I'll play with you :)
Q: Are you guys really going to move away after Mike is done with College. If so, is there anyway I can convince you to stay?
A: Probably, unless Mike finds a job out here. We really don't like the heat, or the snow though... (Washington really spoiled us)
Q: What is your favorite color (I can't believe I don't know that one, I thought at one time it was orange, am I right?)?
A: You are right, Orange is my favorite :) I also really like brown and teally-green.
Keiauni asked:
Q: Can you teach me how to do little girl hair? Lilly always looks so cute! I can't figure out what to do with Ave's mop!
A: I just start combing and whatever her hair will do, I go with it. :) Lately, though we've just been doing pony and piggy tails :) Lilly's getting to the stage of not letting me play with her hair for very long.
Q: Happy big 30! If you can survive it, I will too! (I will, right?)
A: I'm doing fantastic, still living and I really don't feel 'that old' :)
Mom (Grandma Y.) asked:
Q: Can you put it (our adoption video) out on the Web? Not just an adoption sites but everywhere?
A: I tried Youtube and facebook, but the song I used is copyrighted and Youtube & facebook wont let me post it there - I don't know how to go around that... If you want copies I can mail them and it's on our website. I was also able to post it on www.adoptionvoices.com It's lame that I can't do other places, I know... I need to re-do it with a different song, or e-mail Jewel and see if she'll let me use it :)
Kissesforyou (Emily) asked:
Q: I loved your video! Aren't they so much fun to do? Can I ask what program you used to make this one?
A: I used Pro-Show Gold. I love making video's, it's kind of my version of scrapbooking. No cutting, no glueing and you can use music it's so fun.
~Our Family~ asked:
Q: What is there to do in Arches? Just hike?
A: mainly just hiking :) There are some campsites too.
Linzy Boulter asked:
Q: Can I have the name of your dog trainer? wow. Is she always that obedient?
A: Bryn's trainer is Mike :) and yup, she is a really really really good doggy. She let's Lilly climb all over her and is such a good/fun dog with a quirky personallity.
