Hello everyone!! Well, it is now Saturday in Kaliningrad and we have just had another visit with Roman. He was in great spirits today...laughing, smiling and throwing himself into our arms :) We actually got to go into the actual orphanage today and wait next door while Roman was finishing his lunch. There was another family there today with their son...they are scheduled to have court on Monday as well. They are from San Diego and were very nice...it will be nice to keep in touch with other families with children from the same orphanage.

Some new news...it looks like we will not have court until possibly Tuesday instead of Monday...we are waiting for an official document from Moscow (at least that is what we can figure out). We might have to change our tickets and fly into Moscow later which would change our arrival date back into the states...we will keep you posted. We are hoping that the later court date will not affect our flights to Moscow...but you never know. Once we get the official word from the courts that we are Roman's parents, there is a lot of paperwork and running around to be done, so it might not get done on time.

All is well here in Russia...Roman still has his perpetual cold that he has had for months, but is such a happy boy. He seemed to remember us and the silver heart bracelet. We should be able to visit with him again tomorrow and Monday before court.

Food is great...we went to a authentic Uzbekhistan Restaurant last night...the food was amazing. Gaye even liked it :)

Havent gone bowling yet...perhaps Yuri is scared of a rematch with Andrew ;)

Will try to post another day once we find out about court and our trip home.

p.s. please post comments...we love to read them
