Court day

Well today was our court date. We left the apartment at 8:20am returned to the apartment at 5pm. A very long day with a very good out come. We started with a court time of 10am but didn’t get started till 11:30am. Once we were done the judge told us she would have a decision by 2:30pm, so Ducien drove us to the baby house to see Baby Larrick. We got to spend 1 hour with him. It was nice to see him in the middle of all that was going on today. We headed back to the court house where when we got there they had lost power so that then delayed us even more because they had to type up the judge’s decision. Once the judge came in she announced in a really long way that our petition to adopt Baby Larrick had been approved. So now we just have to wait out the 16 days for it to be completely final, Which means we could pick Baby Larrick up from the baby house, but we will not be coming back until it is time to bring him home to Chardon Ohio which should be 33 days after court so we should be back in Almaty on July 27th.

So we are the proud parents of Stephen Richard Talgat Larrick.
