The boy is ours!

Hi all!
It is Thursday and I am in Karaganda safe and sound. Vadim, Oxana and Natasha were all at the Astana airport waiting for me when the plane arrived at midnight. Luggage arrived ok, as did I! It is bitterly cold here with a thick blanket of snow on the ground and about –9F during our drive home last night, probably in the single digits today and snowing.

We just got back to the apartment – yes – I said WE! Will and I said our goodbyes at the babyhouse, (snow)suited up and promised to never look back! The care givers were happy to see me and both came to give hugs (very unusual) – they were very sweet and wished him a happy life. There is nothing to sign or do officially (which I think is odd), so off we went into the big world!

We will be here in the apartment until Saturday morning, when we will leave Karaganda for good and venture to Almaty for a couple of days to wrap things up. Love, Kelley
