ICA Family Picnic

In June of each year the adoption agency Nungesser and DW hired holds a picnic ge-together for their client families to meet. It's a great opportunity for families to meet each other, for prospective parents to talk to parents and get a personal account of what the adoption process is like, and for the agency staff to see AB in person and see for themselves how he's grown up in the last year.

We got AB a shirt from Cafe Press with Orenburg (Оренбург) written in Russian on it for the picnic. It looks cute, plus anyone there who can read Russian doesn't have to ask where AB is from. OK, just about everyone there who spoke and read Russian already know where AB is from, so it was mostly just cute.

There were a lot of toys, games, and activities for children of all ages. AB liked teh inflatable crawl-through tube.



He is still captivated by doors. He can spend hours opening and closing them, even big heavy ones like they had at the picnic.





And by the end when we got in the car to go home, AB was wiped-out.
