Some news. Kate told us she is going out on family leave for three months at the end of July. So we will have a new case worker to work with. So I hope that goes smoothly. She did let us know that we will most likely have two more smaller rounds of paperwork to do and that our wait would be the average amount of time of 4-5 months before we go back. We are still hopeful for early fall!
An article about Russian adoption I thought you may be interested in reading from the July update.

About Us
- Sharon and Patrick
- We were married in 2005 and decided shortly there after to build our family. We set out on this journey to have a child together and our path has led us to adopt a little boy from Russia. He will have two older sisters. We hope our dream that began in 2008 will bring us all together in 2009.

Ugh! More paperwork but that is expected. I was hoping you'd go back sooner than 4 months though. I can't wait to see little Sean. I hope Kate is ok. Maybe Vica will take over for her.

Gotta love all this paperwork .. we are preparing for our 2nd round when the judge returns from vacation on August 3rd!!! At least we both have a better idea of what the paperwork is and how to move through it quickly!!!
Hang in there!!

It did take us about 4 months for our court date too. It is so hard but keep busy and it will go by faster than you think. Is Kate having a baby? We also worked a little with Vica and she was super!
The paperwork doesnt seem to end, and the wait is challenging I know. I'm nervous that Kate will be out , but I'm sure her replacement Barbara will help us all get our babies home. We are waiting another 2-3 months before we travel back to Rostov. Susan
