Just waiting.....











I havent been posting for couple of days just because nothing really new happened with our paperwork. Our attorney submitted everything to SDA and now we are waiting for them to issue us a final paper so that court can be scheduled. We heard that we will receive that paper from the SDA on Monday...so we pray that this will happen and that we will get a court date fast.




On Sunday Aleks, Dima and I went to a church where mostly Americans gather here in Kiev and met some new people. My husband stayed at the orphanage with our daughter. After church, we went with some firends to downtown Kiev and walked around the "globus" mall then had some yummy pizza there and ice cream.
Another day I took Dima to an orthodontist in Kiev for consultation. He needs to get braces, and it is MUCH cheaper here. Then another day we went to a denstist and had cleanings done for the boys and my husband. Aleks needs more dental work done and its much cheeper here, so we scheduled more appointments for him to have everything completed before we go home.




One evening, my husband and I went out with some friends to a huge mall called, "karavan" here in Kiev where there are many stores and even an ice rink. While we were out, the boys watched their little sister in the orphanage. They did a great job playing with her and keeping her busy. When we came home she was already sleeping!




Everyone is doing great! The boys are so happy that we are with them and they live with us in our apartment here in the orphanage. It was snowing here again and it was beautiful! We were playing with the boys outside and took some pictures. We have met more wonderful people here and became good friends.




Yesterday we had dinner with another family that we met here, that also adopted kids. It was nice to spend time together and to meet them and their children.




Tomorrow, Olga, a girl from the orphanage will be celebrating her 16th birthday and invited us to her party. So we will be going there and then we were also invited by a family who works here at the orphange to have some "shishkabobs".




Please keep praying for us to get the paperwork done, so that we can return home soon...
