We have Mila's visa in hand and are scheduled to fly out TOMORROW MORNING! The computers were working wonderfully...an answer to prayer! Eldon at Golden Rule travel is super fabulous and got us GREAT and cheap tickets into Buffalo. We will land at 6:27pm! Although I'm sad we won't have a big group of greeters this time since we're not flying into our hometown airport, I know it's in Mila's best interest to go this route :) Mila will officially become a U.S. citizen when we touch down in DC! Woooot!

| Mila's temporary bed :) |
Mila had her first bath tonight. She is mostly a pretty calm baby, but girl can throw a tantrum when she wants to be picked up! Pounding fists and all. So my prediction was, because she is a drama queen in training, she would hate her bath. Mike thought she would like it. Mike was right. She was so calm during the bath and I just got a kick out of her hair!
