Moved into our new apartment
We just moved into our new apartment. It is not quite as nice as the last one in some ways but it is bigger and has WiFi!!! And we are on the 13th floor. I think we will be in this apartment until we go home. We are still having fun visiting Vladik at the orphanage everyday. We are with him for about 3 hours everyday. Today we played War (card game), played games on the iPod touch, played Nintendo games on the laptop, Keith and Vladik played outside, and Vladik ate all the treats we brought him (of course!). This is a picture from a couple days ago. We had said bye to Vladik but were waiting to say goodbye to the director so Vladik went back to his building. He sleeps in a building that is on the other side of a large courtyard from the main building where we meet everyday. As we were walking towards the gate to leave the orphanage grounds we hear "Hi Mom!" and look up to a 2nd story window to see Vladik hanging halfway out the window waving at us. He wanted to know where the car was that was going to pick us up. We told him we had to wait five minutes. So he continues to hang out the window and yell and laugh. He went and got his plastic toy Ninja sword and waved that out the window too. Then he got yelled at by a teacher walking between the buildings so we said bye and walked around to the other side of the building so he won't want to hang out the window and talk to us and get in trouble again. About 20 seconds later we hear a "knock knock knock" on glass and we turn around and there is Vladik pressed up against a window on the other side of the building now. Thankfully that one didn't open so he couldn't hang out of it. It is good to know we are loved and that even after he has gone back into "his" building he still thinks of us enough to check out the window for us. He just melts our hearts everyday. We are so lucky to have TWO great sons!
