Brothers

Today we journeyed out to baby home #6 for our visit with Max and Roman. We had a great time and the boys seemed to remember who we were even though we didn't see them for 3 days!!! Roman has LOTS of fun going through the toy bag we bring but since we had already emptied he went through the side pockets and found my chapstick, hand sanitizer, gum and tissues. I was able to get all but the chapstick away so the chapstick became the toy OF THE DAY ... I think he enjoyed putting the cap on and off. Tomorrow I will make sure all the goodies are out of the bag!!! Here are the brothers hanging out together!!!







We then spent the afternoon driving around with Svetlana as she delivered paperwork for us and another family who will be arriving in a few weeks to adopt 3 children! It beat sitting in the apartment all afternoon and she's always a hoot to spend time with. Our reward for being such good helpers was a little taste of home ....


Only 9 days to go until we pick up the boys and head to Moscow!!!

Yes I agree Svtlana is always entertaining!! YAH only 9 more days, how long do you stay in Moscow. I love the picture of the brothers they are adorable. It is funny to see one in shorts, they must have the heat on HIGH in the baby home.

Svetlana is always fun to be with. She was always so busy when we were there. She works really hard. The boys look great. Soon you'll head to Moscow for more fun!

So happy for you guys!! It was neat seeing the apartment again. Out of curiousity does the bathroom door not match any of the other doors in the apartment? If not, it's compliments of our Roman. LOL! Watch out for Alf's hidden belly button camera. We couldn't help but turn him to face the wall!

Hey, was that McD's in a large mall? It looks similar to the one we went to that has the HUGE toy store in it. I think the bldg looks just like the one JD is standing in front of -- but there was just so much snow, I'm not 100% positive.

Take a look at the above link for the pic of JD in the snow in front to the McD's Mall. If so, you'll hit the jackpot with the toy store!

Oh --- and I love the pics of the boys --- just wonderful!
