Here's an assortment of pictures. WE had a big party at the orphanage for her class. Yuri had visited her in the morning to let director know what was going on and he told Anastasia that we'd be taking her out of orphanage. When we got there - she had all of her stuff in two small plastic bags under her desk - she told me " I'm ready!!" SHe didn't stop grinning the whole day. ALso some pics back at the apartment - lounging in her new PJ's!! We've played Jenga, Guess Who (great for the English vocabulary), connect four, Hide and Seek (that's something in a one room apartment!!). Also a picture here of her having breakfast in bed! The one on the phone - she's chatting with her big brothers. Rachel called first and she was being shy and wouldn't talk - but by the time the boys called she was warmed up - We're having a blast. She slept on Kim for over an hour in the car today as we drove around trying to get the birth certificate!! The one picture where she looks like her lips are blue - they were - thanks to some treats that Rachel sent (and she says Thank You Rachel by the way) Her tongue was really blue so Mark had her chanting, "Go BIg BLue!!" Don't think she grasps what that means, but I imagine a few weeks in our house and she's be a wildcat fan too!!
Thanks for checking in on us!
