Another long week (yes i know its only wed. ) well, we're that much closer to getting our adoption officially underway. the last of the paperwork went out today, now we wait for the invitation from Russia to come visit our little girl. Tomorrow should be fun, we're having the folks, and some relatives over for Turkey Day, so we get to clean the house tonight.. yay! ugh! Should be a good day anyway. Happy turkey-Day to all!

It's a girl!

yup, we finally got a referral... her name is Ekaterina. She's a 15 month old from Russia, should be going to visit her in a couple of weeks, then we wait for our court date for the adoption!

decided to do more work on the safari rack toady so I got a sheet of plastic latttece, my dremel, and a screw shooter and went to town, now I have a deck that i can place anything I want up there with.

ugh! what a week... work had been a nightmare, i'm spending more time troubleshooting bank errors than anything else. On the plus side, the adoption is moving forward. I'm just waiting on one or 2 more documents and we're ready to get a referral.

Went through the paragon pics from October and did some cropping finally. I'm re-uploading the pictures as I type this. It looks like the adoption from Russia is gonna happen real soon. We're just waiting on some paperwork before we can move forward.
