Pashe picked us up just before 10 a.m. to drive out to Podolsk to spend about an hour and a half playing with Liam.   His chest congestion was a bit worse today — and it was nearing lunchtime — so he was a little fussy.   Even so, he was in pretty good spirits considering that he seemed a little tired and had a bit of a rattly cough.   None of the toys we brought today were interesting, but he was eager to scrounge through our bags for some more of the Animal Crackers that he munched on yesterday.   We were a little concerned about whether we’re supposed to give him snacks, but after he got us busted a couple of times smacking on the cookies as the caregivers passed by, we figured they must not mind.   And he was only eating tiny pieces anyway so I’m sure he still had room for lunch.

We headed back to Moscow city center to get photos of Liam printed for passport & immigration then Pashe worked his way through the dense Moscow traffic (he thinks the traffic this month is the worst he’s seen all year) to a notary to sign several intent and post-adoption documents which we’ll file with the court tomorrow.

We had a late lunch/early supper with Pashe and now we’re back at the apartment for the night.   Tomorrow starts earlier than normal and jetlag is still kind of taking a toll on us, so w’re staying in & turning in a little early tonight.
