2-Year Post Placement Report

7:23 PM Edit This 2 Comments »



We had our Social Worker visit us today to prepare our 2-year post placement report to be sent to Russia. The actual official court date of our adoption is September 23rd but the report has to be in Russia's hands just before then. Of course the visit went well so with that report, and the pictures that have to accompany it, Russia should be pleasantly pleased!

To celebrate, we drove to West Palm Beach and went to City Place. From there we took the trolley down town. SV called it the trolley train! When we reached down town, we walked to a waterfront restaurant, had lunch, then went to the downtown fountains so SV could play in the water! He had a ball! We took the trolley back to City Place and then drove home. Oh.. I forgot to mention....... on both trolley rides to and from downtown... the trolley had to stop and wait.... for the train to cross!!! SV was so excited to see not 1 but 2 trains, he stood up on the seat of the trolley to get a better look!




But the absolute best part of the day was that we know we are coming up on the 2-year anniversary of becoming a family and we couldn't be happier!!


NEW: Loxahatchee River Center

We took Sergio to the grand opening of the new Loxahatchee River Center. They have some really beautiful displays. Sergio got to jump in the bounce house and pet an alligator. They also have a touch tank. A guide was holding a large starfish for the kids to feel. Gentle; he told the kids. Well Sergio damn near ripped off one of the starfish legs! (Are they called legs?) Anyhow, the guide was freaked out and said WOAH!

Please comment with any potty training advice that you may have!


We are trying and SV has a super new potty chair. He sat on it yesterday for 20 minutes and one drop of wee-wee was produced. HOORAY!

Sergio was very good flying to NH and back. We flew Jetblue and were very pleased with them. In Wolfeboro, NH, we actually took a ride on Thomas the Tank Engine! Those pictures are forth coming for the following reasons: Mommy forgot to bring the battery charger for the digital camera on vacation. The camera doesn't take regular batteries but instead a battery pack that can be recharged using a special charger. Okay.... no problem..... so we bought a new one to the tune of $40 bucks and I recharged it the night before we left for Wolfeboro. Oh, was I madder than a hornet when we got to Wolfeboro (an hour and a half drive) and I realized that the battery was still plugged into the charger at my Grandmother's house!!!! We ended up buying a disposable camera to capture some of the joys of the day so I still need to get them developed. (Not very modern at all!) Sergio also rode on a train at Story Land and a Swan Boat, Flying Dutch Shoe, Flying Whale, Carousel Horse, etc.
