This morning started with breakfast in our room. The staff are so kind and considerate; they even bring Nathan an apple juice even when we don't ask. Here is our daily bread.....
We then ventured off by ourselves to the Kragujevac City Center and walked around. It was like a slushy winter wonderland. Very pretty.
After a bit, we took a taxi to the Roda Center to play and walk around in out of the snow and rain.
After we returned and had a short rest, we got word that everything was signed. So, we headed off to the Pink Panther (or as the sign says "Pink Panter") for a celebratory dinner.
Here are Mama & Nathan in front our our hotel called Hotel Zeneva:
We are now back at the room and getting packed up to head from his birth city and then on to Belgrade to finish up the rest of the paperwork.
I would like to end this post with a picture especially for Sissy. Here is Nathan in the hat you made him (just like his big sestras):
Can't wait until tomorrow when we can officially announce our new son to you!

Can't wait!!! He looks like he's adjusting well, when do you get to come home?
ReplyDeleteI have loved following your journey! We adopted Sasha from Serbia about 8 months ago and loved it there. All your wonderful pictures are making me miss our son's beautiful birth country... especially the food!
ReplyDeleteWhat a blessing you all are for Nathan! Can't wait for the exciting introduction of your son tomorrow. Please tell Jasmina hi for me.

The food looks sooo good!! We've been living on mac&cheese and pizza here.
ReplyDeleteThe "pink panter" thing is kind of like how the door to our apartment in Ukraine looked like it said "Shrek," remember that?? Haha
