Pictures

I've forgotten that some people that are following our adoption journey aren't Facebookers, so there's a lot of pictures they haven't seen. There are some on here, too, that haven't been posted to Facebook yet, so scroll down for some new and older pictures . . .

    Ever wondered what those big thunderstorm-forming clouds look like from the top?


What the city of Chicago looks like from the air . . . 

 
This is a soviet-era monument that a lot of Bulgarians want to see come down . . .

 
Right after we left the orphanage . . .
 
 
Lunchtime on Gotcha Day . . .
 
 
Our driver and translator, Javor . . .
 
 
Maya's orphanage director . . .
 
 
Belinda Carlisle is coming to Sofia!

We didn't get too close, but this is one of the protests going on outside some of the government buildings.  This is a very small protest.  After working hours, thousands of people gather in this area to protest the current government of Bulgaria.  Lots of yelling, honking car horns, shouting in bull horns.  Its kinda scary to somebody who's never seen this kind of thing first-hand before.

 
I LOVE this picture . . .

 
And this one . . .

 
Our city view of Sofia from our 7th floor balcony . . .

 
First picture of mama and Maya . . .
 
 
First feeding . . .

 
First bath . . .



 
Our hotel . . .

 
What feeding time looks like . . .

 
I'll try to remember to post more pics on the blog and not just my Facebook profile!
 
Love,
 
Paige
