Our Adoption From Kazakhstan

Everything Going Well!

Our visits with Olivia have been going very well. The past few days she has been much more cuddly. She lets us hold her and sing to her. Yesterday, they moved her to a new baby room, the one for older babies. At first, I was worried that she would get less food or care there, but everything seems to be fine now. We are sharing the play room during our visitation with another mother and her new baby. We are getting along really well (the babies too). We're even planning on meeting for dinner this weekend. It is good to have someone to share worries and spend playtime with. Here is a picture of our new family. David and I look a little tired, but Olivia looks very cute and rested! We are scheduled to go to court on June 20. After that, David can come home and I'll stay and continue to visit.



In our spare time, we have been trying to find things to do. We walk a lot and I found a friend to run with. We have found a few good and not too expensive restaurants, and Sunday we visited the Pyramid of Peace and Agreement. We climbed to the top of the pyramid with an English-speaking guide. The four sides of the pyramid represent the four main religions and the top of the pyramid represents heaven. It was really interesting.

Angie and David... she is a cutie pie. I can't wait to see her in person. Angie, I think she has your eyes. You should take the cutie behind you too ... she'll want a sister. I know this has been very tiring for both of you, but well worth it, ya'll look great together. Olivia doesn't know how blessed she is. Keep the photos coming.
Hugs and Kisses ... Melanie
