Our visit to the embassy today went smooth and was rather uneventful. We now have Alex’ visa and he can enter the US legally. Hoorah!!! There were 3 other adopting families there with us whom we’d seen at the doctor’s office yesterday. One of the 3 will be on our same flight.
Hopefully this will be our last post from Russia. We’re pretty much packed and ready to go. We are pretty weary as the upset stomachs and loss of appetite have returned but we both managed to choke down a Big Mac tonight and are feeling a little better.
Alex has been pretty stubborn this afternoon but he missed his nap and I’m sure senses something is up with all the packing going on. Patti and I have a little patience left but the tank is pretty low. Good thing he’ll be going to bed soon.
Please pray for safe and tantrum light travel - we, of course, are a little concerned about that but I’m sure we’ll make it - unless Alex manages to free himself and open the cabin door which I wouldn’t put past him.
So we bid farewell to Russia for now and who knows if we’ll ever be back. If you were to ask us today our answer would be “very unlikely” but you never know.
See you tomorrow Ty and say a special prayer for us o.k.? We love you and miss you very very VERY much!
Merry Christmas!

I'm baking the crusts for your banana cream pies. The fridge is full. Patti,your Mom is bringing more food tomorrow so I think you'll be okay for awhile. I'm trying a recipe for meat pies for Alex so you have two types for him to try. Amy's are very good. Hope Alex likes at least one of them. Sleep whenever you can on the flight home. All four of us will be at the airport complete with video and digital and we'll try to control ourselves. Tyler has a surprise for you. Praying for journey mercies. See you tomorrow night. Love, Grandma "D"

YAY - on your way home. There really is no place like home! A good schedule that won't be interrupted with packing and such will be good for your little man. I know you can't wait to get home and see Ty as well. Take care and we'll be praying for a smooth flight home.
So glad you are on your way home as Ty is I'm sure...what a wonderful time you will have. Can't wait to hear and we'll be praying for safe and tantrum free travels.
