Yesterday after finishing up some paperwork we picked up our sweet Mischa Grace from the baby home around 1:00. It was short and sweet ...we said our thank you's and goodbye's, got her dressed and we were out of there.
The hotel was just a short drive and she just looked out the window taking in all the sights. The coordinators dropped us off at the hotel and let us have some alone time with her. It was so nice to play and hangout for the first time with just the three of us...someone was always with us at the baby home.
We're spending the weekend hanging out and getting to know each other. Things have gone very smoothly so far. She is soooo sweet and we are enjoying every minute with her. There is no doubt she was meant to be our daughter and was so worth the wait. We wouldn't change a thing.
On Monday evening we will fly to Moscow and then home Friday. We met another couple on the plane on the way over who was picking their daughter up in Siberia. We are looking forward to meeting up with them in Moscow. We will also be on the same flight home so that the girls can play and we can help each other out.
I promise to post some photo's once we get to our apartment in Moscow!
Thank you for all your kind comments and being part of this journey with us. Can't wait for you all to meet her.
Happy Valentine's Day!
