Embassy Visit #1

Friday we completed our first visit with the US Embassy - it seemed to go well, although there is the "wait and see" attitude with the entire group that is here. Hoping to get a call for our second meeting sometime next week - with Veteran's Day and Turkey Day during our stay here, it does put us back a few days...
Kenny seems to be doing really well! Good old zithro seemed to knock down and drag out that bug. We have been working quite a bit on sitting up by ourselves, that'll be our next picture. Still up every 3 hours or so, but to be expected in this part of his little life - but he seems to getting a little attached...we had a visitor today in our apartment and he was shy and put his head to my chest - Loved It!
Unfortunatey it doesn't look like we'll be doing our orphanage visit today, maybe next week. Things change so quickly around here.
I've been asked a few times about "the little girl in the red hat" from our video...I requested a bit more information about her and so happy to report that she has been matched with a family from Italy! Not sure when they are coming for her, but hoping soon. What a doll!
Three more families from our agency arrived yesterday - some of Kenny's bunkmates will be at
the apartments to visit with him again. The rest of his buddies will be with their families soon; one of our mom's here is a doctor and hopefully will be allowed to make a "house call" to the babies to make sure everyone is doing well.
I did venture out into an outdoor market today. I'm a little tired of eating out, so I decided I would "cook" tonight. Shopping for produce fruit and rice noodles was about all I could manage, but it turned out well! Amazing what a little soy sauce can do....
By the way, the Embassy official made a comment on the way out about the "Bear Fan"! Guess he wasn't a Pakcer fan after all....Smiles, Claire
