Well, our dossier is in Russia, so there probably won't be any new news for a while. The agency has told us that once it's there, they don't get any updates until we have a referral. So instead of posting adoption updates I think I'll be posting interesting Russian adoption tidbits, or other things that are going on with us.
Russia tidbit #1- The temperature in Moscow tomorrow is 61 degrees, a little chillier than here obviously. Their summer is only hot for about a month it seems. Makes me a little nervous if we have to travel in winter when temps can go down to 40 below.
#2- Russian people are sticklers for wearing a hat even when it's not all that cold. One woman I talked to said she was scolded by the orphanage workers and the cab driver because her daughter didn't have a hat on, and she said it was almost 60 degrees outside.
Well, that's all for now!
