Well, the latest news is that our region in Russia has decided to require the 8-doctor medical exam in Moscow. This means that we wasted our time and $ getting our medicals and psych evals done here, since we'll have to be examined by 8 different doctors now in Russia including a Russian psychiatrist (VERY EXPENSIVE!). It will also add a day or two to our trip. We had to have new bloodwork done to take the lab reports with us and a chest x-ray to test for TB so hopefully we won't have to have the bloodwork done in Russia.
We are still waiting for our homestudy update to be completed. We are also waiting for our police clearance letters, letters from Child Protective services, and our court petition. These are the last four documents we need before we can get a court date.
Thank you to our family and friends who have donated towards the orphanage donation fee, we have raised $700 of the $1000 that we needed for the donation. God is good! We are now trying to raise money for the last $300 and the cost of the medicals (about $1500) in Russia.
I had a wonderful adoption shower yesterday with my girlfriends! Chris was so excited to look at all of the toys and cute clothes when he got home from work. I can't wait for Dasha to come home so she can see how loved she already is not just by us by by all her "aunties".

Chris and Susan,
We continue to pray for what God is doing. He is faithful and His grace is holding you now. We also pray for Dasha as she waits for you to come back to get her. Continue to believe for God's miraculous conclusion that Dasha will be once again in your arms very soon.
Love,
Dawn and Randy
