We have our court date – March 3rd. We are so excited!!!!!!!!! We are leaving Feb 27th arriving in St. Pete on Saturday Feb 28th. We have an appointment on Monday March 2nd with a medical clinic where John and I will undergo a medical examination with 8 doctors. Fun! After that we hope to visit with Baby B!
We were assigned a new judge for our hearing on Tuesday. This means that we can expect her to be strict and follow the rules. Our agency does not expect her to waive the 10 day waiting period, but I continue to think positively that she will and plan to pack some clothes for Baby B just in case. If it is not waived we are traveling back to NY on Wednesday March 4. My agency thinks we will be returning on March 14 to pick him up, we should know at our hearing. After we pick him up we will be traveling to Moscow to complete his immigration paperwork and can be home with him by March 21.
If anyone can spare any points we would be very grateful. We could use points for the Marriott, American Airlines, Delta or American Express. Any points will be helpful. Thanks to Chuck and Louisa who are giving us points for the Hilton when we stay in Moscow.
I plan to update the blog while we are in Russia--- so please continue to follow our journey!

Congratulations! I check every day for an update!! Get packing! Have you considered an apartment when in Moscow? It definately makes eating/sleeping/naps easier. let me know if you have any questions.
What wonderful news!
Congratulations!
Congratulations!! I hope the judge does waive your ten days, but if not, it sounds like you have every thing worked out!!
Great news!!! I so wish we would have been able to visit St. Pete's during our time there. Maybe "next time"! :-) Great idea about the 20 items from the dollar store - it will make ALL of the difference!
CONGRATULATIONS! What exciting news. We tried to make it to St. Pete but it didn't work out. It seems beautiful. Hoping your 10 days are waived!!
