We went to our visit today and got to be outside the entire time. They had him a little overdressed in our opinion (multiple layers under a snowsuit - yes, a snowsuit) for 52 degrees but he didn't seem to mind. The one thing he did NOT like at all were our sunglasses! Not as much a problem for Laurie as it is for John because they are his regular glasses that tint in the sun - so when taken off, he is slightly blind :)
We mostly just walked around a little and played on a couple of the playground equipment toys. He enjoyed just sitting on our laps and listening to us talk too. We have a morning visit tomorrow (for the first time) at 10:00 but then won't get to see him again until some time next week.
When we returned to our apartment (it was just going to be a quick stop before grocery shopping again), we had several messages waiting for us from concerned friends and family members regarding the news in the US about the Russian adoptions being frozen. We just got off the phone with our agency and they told us (as of right now) not to worry - "take a deep breath and don't worry". She said that we had court yesterday and that our adoption was finalized yesterday. She also said that the Russian official who made the statement had no official authority to do so and when asked why he did it, he said "no comment". So, as of right now until WE (John and Laurie) hear anything stating that we are frozen and until you hear it from us - - we are going to tell you the same thing we were just told, "don't listen to the news (no matter who they are) and don't worry about it"!! We will deal with things when and if they occur (and affect us) & as of right now, nothing has been officially decided.
