This is For My Sister...... Oh Boy.

A new post, a week closer to getting our dossier finished and into Russia.

This week has been fabulous as I have been able to catch up with parents in Russia and those working on getting to Russia. So many wonderful stories and exciting news shared.

With us, currently we are getting the rooms organized and ready for Alexei's sister as this was recommended that we be ready no matter how long we have to wait.

This brings us to the words, "This is for my sister....", which by the way I am hearing now almost daily. He is giving now hahaha. Alexei has taken a little wrought iron bicycle with basket into his sister's room along with a stuffed puppy with a bow on it, the pink poodle he "bought" for her himself among other things.

I have still been stuck on a theme for her room, however am working on narrowing it down to Paris, soft pale pink, black striping, black furniture from Alexei's room and am going to give in and make a pale pink rose lamp shade. Yes, making it to look like Pottery Barn's shade.

She has a pillow case from Potter Barn with the Eiffel tower etc. Her furniture is all wrought iron, all fully child proofed.

And at this point, I am not sure whether to mix in the Princess and the Frog lol. I have had to watch this movie daily and feel like I may be until we see her since it is Alexei's current favorite film.

He LOVES the jazz and the frogs dancing.
I must say with the way he dances, he just does it so well.

Back to the frogs and jazz.....
