Great video, we are next to adopt 2 kids from russia at the end of january 2010. The little girl is very lucky to have you. You seems a lovely couple with smiles and it is contagious for your 3 kids. ;)
Congratulations! Our son was in the same Baby Home with your daughter. Your video brought back a lot of good memories. Hope all is well with your little girl.
Russia requires 2-3 trips to finalize your adoption. You can do it in 2 if you choose to stay in country for the 10 day wait after the court hearing. A lot of families stay for the 10 days, but it makes the second trip close to 3 weeks long. Logistically, we just couldn't be away from our boys that long.
@vkwalden He has been home since April of 2009. We left the baby home with him on March 31 so it looks like we just missed you. Our court date was on Christmas Day in 2008 but there was an appeal so we had to wait until the appeal was overturned by the Russian Supreme Court. It was a Christmas present worth waiting for though. We plan on going back to Tomsk in a few years when he gets older.
Congrats! Our son is from Perm, Russia and I recall well those feelings and moments. What a joyful gift you have in your life!
Gorgeous! u all seem to be having so much fun and enjoying each other.congratulations!

@dksenay How long has your son been home? We just loved everyone we came in contact with in Tomsk. It holds such a special place in our hearts.
