First off, we're safe & sound & in one piece. Step one of this journey is now behind us. Everything went smoothly and we were able to make it to our final destination a day earlier than we predicted. So now we're in Kyzylorda and this is home for the next 8 weeks or so.
Get ready: IT'S A BOY!!!!
We can't tell ya too much right now. He's healthy and owns some chubby cheeks. We've just finished Day 2 of the 15 day bonding period and already he seems comfortable with us. Day 1, not so much! We've decided to name him Ryan and he is 18 months old. Now, please keep in mind we still have lots of steps ahead of us and it ain't over 'til the fat lady sings. So, we don't want to jump the gun. The main thing is he's a healthy baby and we're going through the full process. It's still weeks away before we'll be granted custody so we're in "unofficial mode" for the time being.
