Trying to take a photo of 3
I wanted to take a photo of all three kids together today so that I could send in a copy to my placing agency along with the packet of final paperwork and my huge thank you letter. Shameless plug here... but if anyone is looking to adopt from Russia and needs info on a great placing agency I would be happy to share my agency with you. I'm a bit mushy having just finished my thank you letter to them...but we have so much to be thankful for. They found us our Emily and our entire journey has been nothing short of an amazing dream. If we could adopt again, I would sign up with them in a heartbeat! But in the meantime, I would love to pay that forward to someone else just as another wonderful family did for us who amazingly also had two bio. boys at home. Anne, I hope your ears are turning red!!! You of course, know this already as I have said this a million times...but thank you, thank you, thank you again, for sharing your journey, your agency and your beautiful little girl Chloe with me!!! That information has changed my life. And our little girl just rocks my world!!

Ohhhhh, I'm all teary eyed now. I am so happy I am so happy to have played even a little part in Emily finding her way home.
I think it's the photos together that tell the story and show you the antics of three and the personality of siblings. I used to erase the ones I didn't like and just keep the good ones. But, it's the group of pictures that tells a story.
And one more time... Could Emily be any cuter and look more like her brothers. Amazing!
It's it GREAT to feel like you're in the best hands? While we were in Moscow, in awe of how simple our trip seemed and how well we were taken care of, we heard of a few other families with different agencies not having the best time. It made me more and more thankful for our agency. Now, you're agency sure did get you the CUTEST little girl in the whole wide world so I bet that is a mushy letter! :-) I love the group of pictures - especially the one with Emily's hand over her brother's mouth. You will see MUCH more of that in the years to come - or should I say decades? :-) I'm so incredibly happy for you!
Janine,
I have been following your blog for awhile now. I have been blessed to follow in your journey to your little girl. I've been dreaming of adopting a little girl from Russia for 2 1/2 years now. DH and I also have two biological boys and would love to adopt our little girl. Our talks of late are becoming more and more serious. I would love to hear about your agency. I think I may know who it is already, but, just in case I don't I'd love to hear more about them.
Thank you,
Lisa
funny pics. she is pulling his ear. he is strangling her. they look like the three stooges, only cuter.
Precious!
Thanks Anne!! Thanks Sira!
Becky, I'm so glad everything is going so well for you. You deserve it!! I too remember meeting a family with a different agency while abroad that was struggling and felt so bad for them and yet so relieved it wasn't me.

mmrussianadoption..it is like the three stooges..pure comedy.
Emily is absolutely adorable! It just even makes me more anxious to go over for the first time to meet our little girl. I'm so glad we crossed paths and so happy for you and your family....she is so cute!

Love, love, LOVE the photos! Candid shots are my favorite because they tell a story all by themselves. Please keep 'em coming!
All the pictures turned out so cute. She is such a doll! I can't believe how well she fits into your family.
So cute!! Reminds me of the first Christmas card picture I tried to take of my boys just weeks after the Monkey got home. I ended up using one where the Monkey is pulling Chipmunk's hair and the Chipmunk is crying. Love the pictures!
Okay I think she is taking control over your boys. How funny. She knows her position as the boss. They are so cute.

Loving the photos. It is so sweet to see them all together. I can only imagine getting three smiling faces as I have a hard time with two. They are precious though! I just love the ones where she is pushing them back..you go girl!
She truly looks happy and a perfect fit!
Such a great looking group of siblings. They turned out great.
It's so great to hear about good experiences with agencies. I'm glad your journey will be well remembered.
Janine,
She is too adorable. I still can't get over how much she looks like the boys. I hope her personality matches the photos. She looks like she will keep you laughing.
Keep up the shameless plugs. I'll back you up
:-)
