At 2:45 we were picked up to go see the baby. We got to go to the nice, large room again. Caleb crawled all over again. He makes a lot of noises and sounds--nothing we can recognize, but maybe some Russian words. ? He mimics us a lot, like when I would click my tongue. He watched me do it several times, and then he did it. At the end of our time, we asked if we could walk with them back to his room. We did, although the caregivers didn't seem too happy about it. There weren't very many babies in his group--maybe 4 or 5. He seemed like he may have been the oldest, or at least the biggest. Several of them were scooting around on the floor in their walkers, and one was having his clothes changed. Everything was neat and clean.
Then we came back to the hotel and ate dinner. We watched a DVD, and I went to bed. Brad watched another DVD before going to bed.
There are no other couples here for adoption right now, that we know of. The couple that was next door at our hotel left. Their Guardianship Council was this past Monday. There will be a couple that I met through my Yahoo group coming this Sunday. They are planning to stay at our same hotel, so we made plans to meet Sunday evening.
We will probably be heading out on the overnight train to Almaty Monday evening. We will spend the night Tuesday and catch our plane Wednesday morning. This all still depends on when the court date is and if we can change our plane tickets to leave Wednesday. We'll let you know!

He looks so proud of himself and those two teeth sticking out is a riot. I'm glad you are in the bigger room it looks like you are all more relaxed. Well I need to go to work. This 5:30 WAKE-UP is still killing me. Take Care and God Bless love Ginny and Gary

I love those teeth! He looks very comfortable with you guys and seems to be having a great time. He is a very lucky little boy to have such wonderful parents! You guys are great! He is already loved by everyone here too. We really look forward to you coming home. Take care and stay warm.
