Roman and Max:
Today marks 5 days since we left Russia and came home to wait for the phone call that would tell us we were coming back to bring you home with us! The last month has been pretty busy with parties celebrating your hopefully soon arrival home, saying good-bye to Tyson and welcoming our new dog "Happy" into the family.
The most important thing was the phone call from Jennifer (she's our new caseworker)to tell us the judge had reviewed our paperwork and wanted 8 items updated. Papa and I have been running around like crazy over the last week trying to get everything collected and then appropriately stamped so we can get it all to WHFC by Friday, September 4th so we can make the judges deadline of having it in Russia by Friday, September 18th!!! Looks like we are going to make it and hopefully the next phone call will be a court date in Russia!!!
Svetlana has been great and sent us some updated pictures in August ... you both look great and so very happy. Max... the picture of you has you snuggling with a stuff bear ... we hope you like stuffys because there are a ton in your room waiting to play with you!!! Roman... the pictures of you are outside on a play set ... you may just be another outdoors man like your Papa and we have a slide and swing set just waiting for you to play on!!!
We can't wait to see you again soon and get ready to bring you home to meet your dogs ..Lucy and Happy and all the family who is so anxiously waiting to hug, kiss and love you to death!!!
Love,
Mama and Papa

Wow, 5 months! Yes, hopefully you will travel soon. I am impressed with how fast you are getting your paperwork done! Can't wait to read the post where your boys are home with Mommy & Daddy!...hugs...Lori (resolve bb)
OK -- most families I've followed through the Ekat process have waited 6-8 months so you're really almost there. I can feel it!!!
Good job being so quick on the p/w update. The boys will be home soon and in the meantime, I'll keep you guys in my prayers.
An e-mail to come soon....REALLY!!!
