Tuesday in Eastern Europe

We are up and about, getting ready for Tuesday. Nothing special about Tuesday, except waiting, praying for the required signature to move forward.

We are beginning to gather the necessary equipment (both hardware and software--we are Alton Brown fans---) for bringing Milos to our apartment, and eventually for the plane ride home.

On the shopping list is: diapers, food that can be made into a thin, smooth consistency (baby food?), wipes, and tights. All of the boys in Eastern Europe wear tights every day, and we did not bring any. I'm sure Milos will be much more comfortable if we keep as much as possible similar to his usual routine, which will result in fewer outburts. We have socks, but they are short, almost ankle socks. He'll want tights. Oh, and we still need the backpack.

The weather here has been the same overcast, threatening to rain, about 35-40 degrees every day. I'd love some sunshine. 

We are both hoping for some rest time today...these days are very busy and we are averaging 6-7 hours of sleep. What ever happened to 10+ hours a night during these trips???? 

We are in contact with our pediatric ENT at home, who suggested a priority list for medical appointments based on symptoms, and I emailed Cardiology to see about getting him in there as soon as we get home. Waiting on their reply now.

Again, we miss the kids. I know it has not been THAT long, compared to other trips, but I have more kids at home to miss now! But, we are keeping our spirits up, enjoying the new friends we have met here, and the new experiences we are blessed to have.

We are not getting any comments on the blog, tho. Anyone out there following along?

Will write more later.
