Yes, we have given our new daughter a name -- Adelyn Kseniya Grace (Kseniya is her Kazakh name, which means "girl from afar" and is pronounced "Ku-sen-ya"). We visited her twice today (Wednesday), but we were limited to her sleeping/play area today since there was a virus going around and they were hoping it wouldn't spread. She also received her 6-month immunization shots on Tuesday, so they wanted to keep a closer eye on her. Nevertheless, she smiled as soon as we came in -- her face really lit up -- and we enjoyed our time together. Above are pictures from two of Adelyn's caretakers. Being able to spend time with them today, we see the love they show for these children (about 10 babies in this room) and their interactions with each one.
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving -- we are hoping to find a nice restaurant to enjoy some traditional American food. We will go with some of the other adopting parents that are here. We will let you know how this goes....
