We met the girls!

We had a wonderful first meeting with our adorable little girls today (3 and 6 as of last Friday). Everything went so much better than we'd ever imagined. Bonding process starts tomorrow.

Greetings from the happy new mama and tata in Warsaw!

So happy for you!!! I remember those moments like it all happened yesterday. These are the times that will change your life forever. We will keep you in our prayers and hope that the courts are kind to you and make the transition easy. Just curious - where in Warsaw do you live? We stayed at an apartment on Agawy (a 1-2 mile walk to the Arcadia) for 3 weeks then moved to the Marriott. Really miss being there and can't wait to go back! Congratulations!

Yeah!

Congratulations!

Praying your gett a lot of sleep and transitions go smoothly.

I agree on the journaling - it's a must! And after the hard days, you'll be able to see just how far you've come.

Fun!

Thanks guys! Don't know if we're in a bonding honeymoon period or what, but things are going extremely well so far. The girls are super sweet. We're in the Bielany area of Warsaw, so are near the woods. We're still all looking forward to going home to Krakow though!
