So we were making yet another perusal of the paperwork, making sure we just had a tiny bit left - and I thought to check on the photographs we have to send to Russia as a way of visually introducing ourselves. They request between 6-12 photos of family members, family pets, child's room, the house, the neighborhood. We've got this covered, no problem.

Anyway, then I notice the caveat on photos: they have to be notarized. Our *photos* have to be *notarized*.

Uh, okay.
"Jump through the hoops, Fido! You can do it! C'mon, boy!"

In other news, we finished the nursery this weekend. Click on the "our website" link above and go to the obvious page called "decorating the nursery."

We also registered for baby things today. That was a lot of fun! We have 60 items not dependent on size or gender. Whew!
