This is one way that the boys have been trained to take walks. Many groups of children walk around the baby house with about 6-8 kids per caregiver. They learn very early to walk holding onto the stroller so that they can be corralled by one person. We hope to keep this practice going even at home. Today we did this walk and they lasted for about 10 minutes then we put them in the stroller for another 20 minutes of walking in big circles around the whole house. I'll show you a video of this sometime soon. My video ran out of battery today.
This is one of my favorite photos of Sasha.
This is one of my favorite photos of Losha.
We get a lot of photos in the stroller because they are confined for good access. We also got good news today Olga has our approval paperwork from the Department of Adoption in Kyiv that we needed and she has her train ticket to arrive here at 6:30am on Sunday morning. She has to be on the train for 12 hours all night to get to us. She will then have time to brief us for our court date on Monday morning at 10 am.

Congratulations on your gorgeous boys!!! They even look a bit like their mommy!! sorry Greg maybe next time!!! Thanks for all of the photo"s ....The Da video is so sweet as well as the video with violet. These boys were meant for you, and you two for them. How miraculous to have found them half way around the world. Enjoy them and give them big hugs from Aunt susan Uncle Fabio and their cousins Enzo and Emi who can't wait to play with them!! God's Speed!!!
Love Susan
Thank you everyone! It is funny that the women in the orphanage were saying that they looked like PaPa. It is weird to be called MaMa and PaPa. Of course Sasha says DaDa because Da is his favorite word. Maybe we will start using Mom and Dad but right now only the caregivers call us that. Sasha is definately daddy's boy and comes running into his arms everyday. Thank you and we will try to get home asap.
