Ok so today was another awesome day with boys. We are very excited all our visits seem to be positive and they are fun even if we have not been anywhere yet!
We are allowed to visit from 3-5 and then we have to go. We got to see and hug the Director today and she said we could visit in the big room if we wanted, but we ended up back outside again. We had a crowd today which was nice we enjoy the other kids. We are going to post a Hello Katlyn picture from Yuri and a Hello Megan picture from Vova... and let me tell you it was so funny to get that pic. Megan! we were trying to get Vova to smile and out of no where Mark goes, Megan! and we got the pic and it was hysterical! You will know which one it is! We saw V. today again too he was doing good. ;) We will post them shortly :)
We get to see the boys tomorrow for two hours and then take them out PTL!!! on Sunday before our train to Zap. We are informed that we are the first couple to ever adopt from Novahnickoliveka and that is huge. ya'll what an honor from God. Can't wait to as G. says, "pioneer the way."
We had to take the metro two stops past where we wanted to go but we eventually got home. It was a good thing because we actually got to sit down on the way home half the trip :)
Now, we are going to indulge in an addiction which is LOST the first episode of this season thanks to a down load and Lori's Mom :) I have to say that the idea of totally loosing myself right now is not a bad one I need that relax and check out time.
Peace out and we will write more later.

Hey Mark, really enjoying the journey with you guys. Thanks for taking time to share all of this with us. Wrestling - maybe I should try that with our new daughter.... Ha!
Also wanted to let you know of two wifi places in Zap that we used. The best and cheapest is the Intourist Hotel. Enter the lobby form Prospect Lenin (the main drag). The lady at the counter will sell you a wifi card for 24 UAH. I used this the whole time we were there. They will try sell you expensive coffee, but if you'll sit over by the Hertz counter, they'll not bother you too much.
The other is the Irish Pub also on Lenin between Intourist and McDonald's - just down from the "twin towers." Much more expensive and they definitely want you to buy some of their fare while there. A last resort, this is (as Yoda would say). Now you have no excuses for not blogging bro.
Guys, we are praying for you and the incredible mission that you are on. You are going to have a blast in Zap! It's a cool town and a lot cheaper to live down there.
