Lurkers Say Hi! 200th Post!

Dear Henry, 
 Happily, there are people reading about you, our family and our particular open adoption situation.  We have regulars across the country that we've never heard from,  which is fine but I'd love to know who you are and what you find interesting about our little blog.  It peaks my interest to see repeat looks from states where Mommy or Daddy don't know a single soul.  It is like little secretes I don't get to know the answer to.  I mean they come back time and again despite the bad grammar, mechanics and spelling!  So Hen, let's invite anyone who'd like to delurk to post a comment at the end of this post, maybe just saying hi and if they are feelin' bold perhaps where they are from and how you came to read our blog.  OR you can e-mail me at lisa@whatelserecords.com.  This would be a great way to celebrate Mommy's 200th post!
Here is one of you and sock monkey.  We've not seen you two together for a while.  I won't post the one of you dangling him over the crib by the tail.
Love, Mommy 
(Lisa T.)

No freaking way. I had this exact post started for yesterday (well, about people delurking, not post 200, which is awesome, btw). I actually started typing it but when my blog book came I decided to postpone it by a day. We are SO on the same wavelength, it's scary.

I tried this once a year or so ago, I didn't get a single response other than from people I already knew. So...good luck!! You know I'm a regular, b/c I post.

I don't update the blog as regularly as I once did, keeping up with the 7 month old and all. (You rock keeping frequent by the way) If you are on Facebook, friend request me there! (monica rakestraw tanner) There are way too many Cole pics on there!! I do keep it up to date usually.

Anyway..thanks for being a bloggy friend, I so enjoy your posts. Your son is precious, you & your hubby are so sweet, your photos are wonderful and your writing style captivating!!

I'm still here Lisa and miss you when you have a break! :)

Hey there, It's me, Doug. I follow your blog (and Brook's and Heather's) via RSS feed in my e-mail. So I seldom visit your actual blog. So you're reader stats don't include me.

I always enjoy following the adventures of Henry and Lil' and the wee ones.

Love y'all!

Hello! I'm a 'follower' of your blog - have been for quite some time now! I remember seeing your profile on the IAC website - looking for/with a friend that wanted to place. I found your blog through another blog - althought not sure which one at this point!

Your blog is wonderful - uplifting and hilarious! Happy 200th post!

Wow Mandy! That is amazing. I have been wondering forever who CT is! Now I know! I really made this post for you and Wisconsin...So glad that you saw our profile while we were still waiting. We don't really know how many people saw it, all we had were two contacts. I also hope that your friend found her path for her baby, be it parenting or placing. We hope to adopt again in a couple of years and it gives me a little skip in my step to know others did look at our profile. I'm so happy you've stuck around. :) Lisa T.

Hi Lisa, I love seeing Henry grow and reading your always entertaining posts. I've always adored your parents, and it's fun to see what wonderful grandparents they are.

Hey Henry's Mom! :)

I come over to visit from Brook's blog to follow your lil' Henry's adventures...he's such a handsome little guy. (Brook is one of my contacts on Flickr.)

I think it's so wonderful how your babies came into your lives, and it's really sweet to get to see them grow. Your babies are just a few months younger than my own little girl, so I also enjoy reading about how other mamas do things :)

Oh, and I forgot to say I'm from NB, Canada :)

Hi Lisa - I'm delurking myself :-)
Love reading your blog and looking at your amazing photos. I only ever manage to carry round my little point it and press camera but your photos really make me want to invest in a good camera.
Here's to the next 200 posts :-)
