Tuesday, May 27, 2008

We finally arrived in Kaluga this morning around 11:45am. We had left at 7:15 am. Traffic was so bad getting out of Moscow, it took almost 2 ½ hours to go 60 miles. Fortunately, I slept for most of it. Kevin says that every time we get in the car here I go to sleep. I know my schedule is completely off.

We were able to spend a couple of hours with Kirill this afternoon. He really hasn’t grown a lot but he has gotten cuter. He let us hold him and he made lots of eye contact. He still likes to bang toys together. I was able to feed him twice today. He likes to eat. This afternoon he saw the food being carried into his pod room and he headed right to the table where he eats and sat down. It was the funniest thing. We took him out for a walk in the stroller. Mind you, Kevin was in a short sleeve shirt and I had on a lightweight turtleneck. Kirill was dressed in a snow suit and hat. They believe in keeping the children warm.

It is 6:05pm here and we will soon be heading out to eat and hopefully to bed not long after (Kevin is napping at this time). Tomorrow is a big day. We have court at 2:30pm (6:30am EST). So please say a prayer before you head to bed tonight that all will go well. We are fairly sure that the 10 days will not be waived and that we will fly home on Thursday and return June 7th.
