No real news

Our final documents (minus 1) is on its why to our agency to be sent to Russia on Monday. We had to pay $20 per document as opposed to $5 since they needed these docs ASAP. So just for this little piece of paperwork the costs were $200 including the FEDEX fees (assuming our medicals are covered by insurance). Yes I am venting as the paperwork can get so frustrating because 1/2 the time you have to re-do it anyway due to things expiring !! Hopefully we will know in the next week or so if we really will get a court date in June

To add to my frustration level I find out our 2nd trip will most likely be a day or 2 longer now due to changes at the Moscow Emabassy

We were thinking already we would be away for at least 10 days now it will be more like 11-12 or even longer if the time we go to the embassy falls over a weekend. UGH! Hotels in Moscow in the summer are also VERY expensive - $400-$600! & we hate to be away from Erik for so long

Ok end of vent.. on the plus side hopefully we will have Scott with us very soon & we can get continue our lives & have a great summer!
