We have a court date! At long last, we will go to court to adopt baby Pavel on Tuesday, April 17th. If the judge approves us, we have a 15-day waiting period until we can take Pavel from the baby house. Then, we have about one week of additional paper work, meetings, tests to get both in Pavlodar and Almaty before we head home. Our best estimate right now is that we will be home by May 12th (mother's day) and hopefully a few days earlier. We had so much fun visiting Pavel today. He is reminding us more and more of Lily.....very happy and very busy! Some photos from today's visit!
What a cutie pie. He is absolutely gorgeous. I can't wait to meet little Pavel and will be sending a lot of love your way this Tuesday. Good luck, Jenny and Grove. Much love, Jennifer Marshall jennifermarshall4@msn.com
ReplyDeleteHe is a cutie for sure! Wonderful news about the court date. It must be good to be able to make plans for coming home. I know all will go well and you'll be back in Santa Fe by Mother's Day!

Jenny & Grove - Oh my goodness, he's adorable. Thoughts & prayers go out to you all for the 17th. There are two little girls here in Colorado who are very excited about their new cousin. I am so happy for you. Best of luck with everything. Nancy
