Today we went to the baby house at 10:00 (that is the time we go everyday) Ivan was by his groupa we walked into the room and he ran to Papa wanted nothing to do with me...sad mama. We then went outside holding only Papa's hand. He wanted to swing and only Papa could push him. He loves to swing that is about all we did for 2 hrs. He did let me push him some, and he asked me for some crackers when I took them out he sat on my lap, we did get him to do a little sidewalk chalk,but then back to the swings. We had a good time today so neat to see Paul with the little man, Ivan likes to wear a hat, he'll fit right in with his dad
I bought a coat today quite chilly, our interpreter Irena came with to help, she also helped us find some cheese, we liked the cheese and had tasty grilled cheese sandwich's for lunch. We are hopefully going to meet another American couple tonight and maybe go out for dinner, we'll let you know how that goes. It will be nice to talk to other people who speak English.
Prayers: that Ivan bonds with us and us with him, the days go by fast for the girls and my parents at home, and for Paul and I here. And that all things go quickly and smoothly and we can be home on the 24Th.
God bless you all pa-KUH (Bye)

Your comments about the food are pretty hilarious,Vicki!! I would be the same way..I'm totally an american cheeseburger kind of girl!! Hopefully you can find a few things you like...or Paul will find them for you!! Hang in there!

Hey, Paul and Vicki, I am so excited for you. Ivan is adorable, but you already knew that. We just got back from our trip, so it was fun to read back on the last few days of your posts. We will keep praying for everything to go smoothly, and for your bonds to grow fast and strong. Thanks for posting every day. Keep the pictures coming.

Ivan is adorable. How amazing this whole process has been. Finally you are able to be with him. Mom said that she and the girls talked to you on Skype. She said she's getting pretty good on the computer. We're going to have them all come to Sandy Pines and go to the water park. Hopefully it warms up here. Sounds like it's cold there too. Can't wait to meet our new little nephew! We'll keep praying that all goes well with you there and here at home.

Finally got your blog (from Brills) as we are on our East Coast trip and on Larry's computer and i left your blog at home. Thankful all is going well and how wonderful Ivan looks :) He already resembles his dad!! Praying you will feel God's peace each day in directing your time with Ivan or your quiet time alone...trusting Him in all you do.
Continue to add those great pics...the girls love them :)
Hard to believe tomorrow is already one week! Yeah!!
Love & Prayers~
