Our 10 days are over!!!

Our 10 days are over now so our paperwork can begin! Andrew came over to our apartment and told us that he now has the official court decree! We are so excited, now everything is becoming final! Andrew picked Clay up this morning and took him to the notary's office to sign some papers to request Evan's adoption certificate and birth certificate. We also took evan to have his picture taken for his passport , not a good picture but it is our son!!! Evan and Hannah got into their first battle the other day so Evan has a fat lip in the picture. :-) Evan got even and gave Hannah a scratch under her eye but I still think Hannah won.

The weather is getting colder and is calling for it to be icy tomorrow and Thursday. After the kids wake up from their naps we are going to take a street car back to the yellow mall. We need wipes and that is the only place that we have found wipes like the ones that we use at home. The wipes in the markets here are very rough. IT is also a good excuse to go to the Figaro for pizza and desert pizza! They have the best pineapple pizza with powdered sugar. yum yum!

we enjoyed our time yesterday with sandy (the missionary that we met) she is so nice. She wants to cook dinner for us on Thursday night. We are really looking forward to it. What nice people, to open up their home to three total strangers and their kids for dinner!

Thank you all so much for your prayers and comments...keep sending them!

Funny story: A Russian lady knocked on our door today and began talking to us and kept talking to us. We kept telling her Nee pon e mi u (I don't understand) finally she just left and gave us a piece of paper. We told Andrew about it and we figured out that we were invited to a "homeowners meeting" He was happy to know about it so that he and Alex could go to it.

Tuesday afternoon...and counting down! Love you all!
