On Tuesday, March 22nd at approximately 3:40pm we got the call that said, "we have a boy for you!" So Kelly raced off from work & made the 5 min drive down the road to get the pictures. What was inside the folder was absolutely stunning! A boy around the age of 9 months, whom we will refer to from here on out as Little A. To respect his and our privacy we will not be posting any pictures here (or emailing them - sorry!) We can tell you that the thing that was the most stunning - was Little A's very strong resemblence to Kelly's grandfather Pete! In all the pics we received - Little A is happy, strong & very healthy looking. We have had a pediatrician review all the information that we were given & Little A passed with flying colors! We informed the agency this morning that we will be moving forward and we would like to have had Little A home yesterday! LOL! We couldn't be more pleased & excited!
As for what happens next, we must wait for travel dates. When we get them we will head off for a trip that will last approximately one week. We will then get to meet Little A in person & spend some time with him there. And before we leave Russia on that trip, we will make our formal declaration of intent to adopt Little A in front of the Russian government.
That'll do for today!
