Wednesday and Thursday

I didn't blog on Wed, b/c there wasn't really much to report. We had a great lunch at Travelers, but paid as much for some bottled water as we did our lunch! Then, we went for another late afternoon visit with Roman. Pretty uneventful.

Today, Thursday, we went at the 11:00 time to the orphanage. We are SO ready to be finished with that drive! We were so excited to leave today knowing that we only have to do it ONE more time!!! YAY!

After our visit at the orphanage today, I did some cleaning up and getting Roman's clothes organized. Then, we went to the grocery store and bought some food items for us and some food items for him! I have NO clue what he'll think of the food we got for him.....should be interesting! We, of course, looked like pigs of Americans, b/c we had about 10 times more food than any of the Russians in the store! Our check-out lady just looked at us very strangely. It was a little embarrassing, but oh well!

Tomorrow they pick us up at 3:00 pm, we go by the court to pick up paperwork, and then head to the orphanage. All we have to do while we're there is change his clothes and come back here to the apartment! SO thankful.

We were excited to go out to eat for our last night alone, but the weather is not cooperating - it's raining here. I can't believe the weather it will be here starting on Sunday - the forecast says sunny and a high of 56 degrees!
