Today's visit was wonderful expect for the fact that another family was visiting with their child and we were all put in the same room. We visited with him earlier in the afternoon, so he was more alert than yesterday. He was full of smiles today and was in such a happy mood. He was all over the place. I even said to Shane that it looks like we are going to have fun with him on the plane rides home. He likes to copy anything you do. We still think his favorite color might be yellow because he still goes for any toy that is that color. That or it's a bright color and it catches his eyes. Today, he and I really bonded which was nice. A few times he would reach out for me to hold him or pick him up. We both have come such a long way since the first trip. Poor thing had girls shoes on again today. I can't wait to be able to give him a bath, lather him with lotion and put him in our clothes.
After our visit, our coordinator's son walked around Novo with us. It's was so cold. I wish Shane would have took a picture of me. I was so bundled up, you could only see my eyes. It was quite a sight. Her son took us to a Russian Museum which was really interesting. It showed the way Russian's lived in the early 1900's.
We will be visiting with again in a few hours, but this will likely be our last post till after court tomorrow. Please pray for us that everything goes well tomorrow.
Follow us down our new path, raising our wild baby boy who we adopted from Novosibirsk, Russia.
