We toured the baby house today, and then got to spend about 30 minutes with Alea (whose name may or may not remain unchanged). I'm still too exhausted and jet lagged for a lenghthy description, so I'll try to appease the folks back home with some photos. Man, is she a cutie. Also, you may be able to access a video at http://video.yahoo.com/, and doing a search for "baby alea" . I just uploaded it and it currently says it's being processed. Love to all back home -t

She is absolutely precious. What great pictures. Thank you for the update even though you are tired. I am so happy to be able to follow along on your journey. I remeber the first email we exchanged in July and now look, you have met your daughter.
I am awaiting my LOI to travel to Kostanai as well, maybe we will have a chance to meet.

Congratulations - she seems to be a very a very happy baby, just like you - happy parents! I can't wait to hear more. Get some rest, that trip seems like a doozy! And then you're all jetlagged to boot! We are so happy for you...
She is such a darling! Can't wait to hold her. I am amazed at how colorful and lively the orphanage seems to be - I was expecting a very drab and dreary setting. And by the way - I love the name "Alea". Our love to the three of you. Mom & Dad
She's adorable!!!!
I'm so excited for you both!

She is so beautiful and seriously edible. I'm so happy for the both of you. Oz is doing well, he says he misses you.
She's adorable and I'm so very excited for you and your hubby!
What a beautiful baby! I mentioned before that Alea is such a pretty name. One could blame you if you decided to keep it. I'm over the moon for you and your family. :)
OMG, what a beautiful smile! I'm keeping my fingers crossed that everything goes well. BTW, I LOVE the name Alea. - Shel (tomboy)
