3 Weeks to Court!

Well the official countdown has begun! We fly out in less than 3 weeks & I only have 8 days left of work but I may need to take some time off before we leave. I will be taking 12 weeks FMLA off so I will be out of work until the end of October. Its really not enough time since 2 of those weeks are spent in Russia. We will have to see how Scott does. If needed Ed may need to also take some FMLA. Ed has been very busy at work which is making these last few weeks kind of hard as we have no time during the week to do anything. I am going to make a stop at Babies R Us over the next few days to get last minute items & to pick up a double stroller. We also have to finish baby proofing!
Erik seems to be understanding more that Scott will be here soon. It will be very interesting to see how they interact with each other.
Our first leg of the trip will be very exhausting. We fly out of JFK Sun night; get into Moscow Monday morning & then are hanging out our agency office for most of the day & hopefully sleeping a little & then we take a 10:30 flight out to Novokuztensk Monday night & get into the region 6:30 am Tues so basically we will be up for over 36 hours with no shower! We decided to do it this way as spending the night in Moscow is kind of a waste since the flight to the region is 10:30 at night & we would rather rest in the region for a day. We are not sure yet if we will get to see Scott on Tuesday or will need to wait until Wednesday. I will definitely be taking sleeping pills on the flight to Moscow!
