Hello again everyone! I hope that you are all enjoying your first few days of fall! I know we are!! This week has been a long one, however, we received both our FBI Background Checks and our Citizenship information. So, now all we do is wait! It could be 2-4 months before the Russian Ministry matches us with our son! As soon as they do, they will invite us to Russia for our preview visit which will last about 5 days. We are hoping to head over on our first trip around Thanksgiving. Our documents are currently being translated to Russian and will soon be sent over to the Ministry. I have been learning some Russian and Andy has been studying the history of Russia. We are also debating on whether to stay with a host family or in a hotel on our first trip! It would definitely be an experiment to live with a Russian family! Bottoms up.....(get it, because all they do is drink!)
Love y'all,
Cassidy
Yay!!! We are all SO proud and excited for you! Like everyone has already said...your little boy is so lucky! You guys have been a picture of patience when it is so hard to wait! Thank you for sharing your journey with us! Love both of you lots!

Thank you Katie, though I am not sure that I have been the picture of patience! I am defnitely not a good "waiter" so this has been extremely difficult. Unfortunately, more waiting to come...much more waiting!
