A successful court date
Well I was very nervous but everything went exactly as our facilitator said that it would and my DH and I are now officially parents to adorable twin 2 1/2 year old boys named Sergei and Artyom (we kept their Russian names).

Congratulations!
Leann--congratulations. I am so happy for you. I was very nervous before court, so I know it is a great relief that it is over. When are you picking up the boys? Are you staying in Kras for 10 day wait? Hopefully the ballet house will be open. Can't wait to see pics of the boys. Cindy

We are waiting out the 10 days in country. We will post pictures once we are home. The past couple of days that we have seen the boys they have been quite upset. I think they are very confused.
