So over a week later, the paperwork is reviewed, apostilled, and sent off the Russia. I'm still waiting to see if our agency has received our Ministry letter, which is the letter that notifies the Ministry of Education in Russia that we officially want to adopt the little miss and to take her off the available children database. I'll find that out Monday I think. That sounds to me like it should make it iron-clad that she will one day be ours, but I guess there would still be a slight chance that a Russian family could adopt her if they really wanted to. I will relax a bit, but not much.
The paint color came out very nice and I put the dresser together all by myself (well, with a little help from Dylan). And let me tell you.....it came in pieces!! Nothing resembled a dresser. I patiently muddled thru, had to re-do some things a few times, but I'm happy with my efforts. Now Steve can do the crib this weekend. Thought I'd also share some of my shopping efforts to date. I'm trying to keep it simply until I really know her size, but I still seem to keep buying....too much fun.
Other than that, I've been kinda glued to the US Open tennis matches....lots of exciting tennis on today. Hoping some of the watching will rub off onto my league match Monday night :o) I just LOVE tennis.

I love the clothes and the room!
It all sounds very exciting! A couple steps closer...
This is so exciting. I remember dong Anna's room and making the finishing touches right before I left to pick her up. I was so glad that I waited to do it in-between trips. I love the pink and with accents of white. Show us more.
