We finished up today with our embassy interview and our little man was a show off, but not necessarily in the greatest way! He's almost two and his molars are coming in, so we think he did pretty well. We got to meet Ana & Russ and their precious Eli and several other adoptive families. It was a nice gathering!
We were able to change our tickets to come home tomorrow. While we won't have a chance to take D to Red Square or get pictures of him there, we feel like it is time for us to go home. Our family is anxious and we are also. Plus we plan to bring him back one day. We have been so lucky that this trip has been so short. We are ready to start our lives together in our own home.
So lastly we'll leave you with a few pictures of today -- wish us luck with the long flight and longish layover in Atlanta. We'll need it!!

It was great meeting you and your adorable Daniel today. Sorry we won't be sharing the flight back, but we're so happy for you that you're getting out of here and going HOME!!! Hope the trip goes very smoothly.
Hey- you will live though the flight! BTW I LOVE his name...what a sweet sweet boy

Glad the embassy when great. I am sure you are more than ready to get back home. Good luck on the long flight.
By the way, I love the picture of you two brushing your teeth. Too cute!
Oh MY, he is a cutie. Isn't it amazing how we all seem to end up being paired with children who look like they are bio kiddos? It's amazing. I hate that you won't get the "standard" picture - but am glad that you get to come home so quickly. I think you have made record time!
BTW, the "standard" pic is in front of St. Basil's - sorry if that didn't make sense! ;)
He is adorable Rachel! Congratulations!! I can't believe your trip was so fast after we spent a month in Russia!! That is awesome! You have a precious boy, and I hope we can meet him one day! Good luck with your flight home!

I'm so glad that all is going well for you. Daniel is so cute and looks so much like Daddy. It still amazes me how much our children do look like us. God is good!
I loved the mohawk picture. That was really cute. Daniel has the cutest little smile. I just enjoyed seeing your pictures today! Can't wait to touch base with you once your home.
What wonderful news that you are on your way home. He is so cute! I would have never thought to bring a toothbrush for the little guy. I will add this to my list.
