Two trips to Aaden

We've decided to break it up to two shorter trips instead of one long 3 week stay in Russia. We were orginally planning on staying during the 10 day waiting period between the two court dates but we have been told we won't get to visit with Aaden during that time. Since the incentive for staying is no longer there, coming home for those 10 days in the middle will give Michael 7 vacation days back to take some time off this summer and it will give me a chance to do some last minute things around the house like baby proofing & putting all the baby gear together. We were not prepared to get a call this early (not that I'm complaining!) so this time back home will give me a chance to knock off a few more things on my to-do list.

The court is requesting extra paperwork so I've spent the last 24 hours figuring that out and am working on getting our Visas. Plane tickets are booked for the next trip and hotel will be next.

We are getting there! 9 more days and counting...
