Hello again from the coldest place on earth. Seriously. Jeremy turned on the BBC weather a few minutes ago and it showed all the temps for the world and yes, this is currently the coldest spot on civilized earth. Don't you want to come visit us? Hee hee. We've been wearing long underwear, thick socks, snow boots, gloves, scarves, the whole bit. And we still feel like we have to run to get to our destination because we may turn solid if we don't. The temperature is currently 8 degrees below 0 Fahrenheit, but that's without taking into consideration that we're by the sea, so the humidity is 75% and there's a wind chill factor added in, which makes it feel like -25 degrees. YOWEE!
Our pumpkin was excited to come play again today. She has quite the personality, I tell ya. Here's a video of Anya and Papa playing on the floor today. I tried to edit it to make it shorter and couldn't get my Windows Movie Maker program to work. So it's a little long. But you'll see what a character this chicky is.
We spent about 45 minutes with her alone, then we found out that she's the jealous type when Ian and Michaela came in. They are two of Anya's friends at the orphanage who have mommies and daddies working fast and furiously to bring them home to America. The social director was so kind to let them come in for a few minutes so we could get some pictures and video of them for their parents. Anya turned into a little stinker when they came on the scene. She didn't like having to share our attention. Should be interesting when we first get home...stay tuned for some adventures. :)
Here are Anya's friends/competition for the day...Ian and Mikaela. What precious babies. Thank heavens they have families coming for them so they can share their beautiful little faces with the world.
Sure wish the other 66 here had families, too. It makes me so sad to know we have to leave them behind.

Have a great weekend! Enjoy your balmy weather! We don't get to go see Anya tomorrow because it's Sunday and the orphanage directors aren't there. We're gonna go to church, though and we're excited to enjoy some time with another adopting couple who is here for the first trip. Should be fun!
