Hey everyone! Hope all is well with you and your families! Can you believe it is August already??? Time is just FLYING by!
Anyways, just wanted to answer the famous question "HAVE YOU HEARD ANYTHING YET" with our famous answer of "NO STILL WAITING". But, the waiting is definitely starting to wear on us - it's been almost 2 months since we've seen "lil man" - it's killing us! He will be 10 months on Saturday - we've missed 2 whole months of his life since we've last seen him!!!! But, we know that just means we will cherish every day we have with him once he is ours forever, knowing what it was like to miss him!
Last night, we started going through our packing list of what we have, what we still need to buy and even pulled out the suitcases and put them in his room. We have a lot of things, we just need to get some "essentials" for once we have lil man with us (bottles, formula, toiletries, medicines, bibs, etc).
Also, remember if you wanted to donate to the fund for the items we are giving to the baby home, you must do so by August 15! Thanks to Wendi who made a donation (we are excited to give something to the baby home for your daughter you are waiting to meet) and to Erinn for the items you are donating! You don't know how much they will be appreciated!
We also received a package from our agency the other day with the documents we will need to take to the US Embassy. That was kind of exciting because it was something new and it is EXTREMELY specific (documents must be in the order listed and exactly what is listed). So, we are making sure we have EVERYTHING they ask for so there are no hold ups.
I guess that's about it from us....just trying to keep ourselves busy and prepared because we know once we get the call it's such a whirlwind trying to get everything together! Love you all and we'll continue to keep you posted!!!

Hi. I have been occasionally following your blog and am excited for you. My husband and I are also adopting from Kaluga. We made our first trip in July. I think our little boy was probably with the same group of babies as your little boy, so maybe they were friends. Our little guy just moved into an older group a few weeks ago. Maybe we can chat and compare notes sometime. Our blog is littleshmoopy.blogspot.com
Ahh, yes...all us Kaulgians find each other :) Praying for you guys!! Hope the time goes by quickly.
