  8. Loisa and Danny,

    I'm so excited for you both to be off on such an adventure.. to go to Russia, how exciting! and then on top of that to go and see that precious little face smiling at you! I bet you are thrilled to see Olesya. Can't wait until she is officially here and you can be a complete family together.

    I'll be looking forward to reading about your Russian adventures. I'll have to turn this into a geography lesson for Josh, he's always interested about the world and other countries.

    Bring us back a bottle of vodka (if you have the room in your suitcase) Love, XOXO, Kelli

  10. Weezy,

    I am anxiously awaiting an update to see how you, Danny and Olesya are doing.

    Last night around 2 am it was 29 degrees at the house... Brrrrrrrr...

    Everything is going good in the office, no worries it has actually been nice and quiet, minus Jason : )

    Hope to hear from you soon.

    Hugs,
    Casey

    Love T.

  12. Well, we finally made it! After 36 hours of 3 planes and 1 train - we have our beautiful girlie! We are doing great! She is a love bug, and loves to eat and swim! You can start calling her Alyssa Ivy as we registered her yesterday and are official. We are done all the tests and having fun!

    More later - time to swim!
    Love you, weezi xoxox
