Video Worked!
Hey everybody! I finally got the video to upload and put in a cute one of him with his fave toy- the stacking cups of course. Just push the 'play' button and it should start. I hope it works for you because he is absolutely adorable. And do you notice it is NOT in the BH? Yup, it is in our living room in our very own apartment. Well, after our last post, our sweet baby slept an entire 2 hours and then started making some noise that it was time to get up now. When we went in to get him, he gave us that 'oh hey, it's you guys!' look and was smiling more than I have ever seen. I think he likes us. And we of course adore him. Even his terydactle shrieks. :-) We have also discovered in these few short hours that he likes carrots with potatos and that he loves apples. Yum. And now that he is not eating some gross porrige thing, his spit up doesn't actually smell all that bad. We may wait for a couple of days to give him a bath until he is totally comfortable with us, but I can't wait for that too. He will be so cute! And you can guarantee there will be some nekkid photos posted for all to see. Keep commenting and I'll keep posting! Much love to all. Your comments are so sweet and they mirror everything that we are also feeling- happiness, excitement, and gratitude for everyone around us. Have a wonderful day! -m

Maren & Peter, I've been following your blog for weeks. I'm adopting a baby boy again in a few weeks (already have one from Kaz 2 yrs ago). Reading your blog has really helped get me excited for my trip. Rinat is ADORABLE and your blog was terrific. Sharon, San Diego
Hi !
Congratulations! We miss you in the playroom already.
Sorry I bagged yesterday, I was worn out. I had Mr. Max the entire visit, including some throw up. Yuk.

Video is so cool! Did Rinat get a weigh-in and measurements before leaving the BH? Wondering what size he'll be when he gets back to the states...
loved the video!! get him home quick!! we love you!! xoxo the middletons
video! wow! so cute! Rinat will surely know that he is loved and has very special parents (and friends and relatives!) as he grows older and can see how you documented his arrival into your family. - keep posting for awhile to let us down easy! we are all hooked!
aww that is the worlds CUTEST VIDEO. and I'm so happy because i have stacking cups to bring to Kaz too!!! I hope I get a cool baby like Rinat! :)
such the cute video. I want to hear this famous shriek.
Get one of him SHRIEKING please. :)
Ok, so i just watched that video like 10 times in a row! Who knew that stacking cups could be so exciting not only for Rinat but also for a 25 year old?! He is soooo fun! And I love his little noises. He'll be quite the talker, I'm sure - just like the rest of the Leggetts. Oh goodness.
Love,
Kate
I'm with Kate...I've at least watched 20 times! So neat to see the little man we have been reading about for so long in action and in sound!!! Bring on the shrieks!!!
Love,
Jolie
I love the video Maren and Peter. HE is absolutely adorable! I have followed your blog from day one and I am just waiting for my paperwork to process so I too can get over to Kaz and adopt my daughter. Thanks for giving all of us waiting the hope that dreams DO come true.

Not only have I watched the video over and over again, but I also grabbed everyone from my clinical group and made them watch the video!!! It's unanimous... he is the cutest little baby ever!!!
xoxoxo

Congrats to the three of you! I'm sitting here on a teacher workday catching up on your blogs tears streaming while reading yesterday's posting and then when I viewed the video I just have to laugh with joy for the three of you.
You will have so many wonderful moments to come and then memories of your experiences.
Beautiful child and parents. What a combination.

to see him crawling, and read your description......tears welled up in my eyes. I am actually having a very hard time typing this.
Yes, the old man is still very emotional....especially when it comes to our new grandson!!!
To say I am proud is an understatement!
Believe it or not, I am at a loss for words.....
Give him a big hug for us. Tell him to keep knocking those cups down. He is all boy!
Nancy and I can't wait to meet & hold him.
Go get 'em Rinat.
Congratulations !!!
Love,
Dad
He is so sweet! What a cutie- glad to see Rinat in action! Suz
Congratulations on finally getting Rinat! Its very exciting to see him out of the baby house and with you. Wish we could be there to see it (well not really that much). Miss you guys and can't wait for you to get home. Tell Rinat that Taylor says hi.
Tony, Maegan, & Taylor
adorable! and congratulations. I can't wait to meet this kid, whenever that happens! you sound so happy in the video.

Hey I have a question. Youve shown the cups in an earlier post. Did you get those there in Kaz? Did you purchase toys in the US or there? (We're waiting, shopping and packing). Thanks! Suz
Hi - just chiming in to say congratulations! I haven't posted before but have been checking in. Rinat was in the same room as my daughter who I sprung from the baby house on July 9. I often saw Rinat when I went to collect her from her room and thought he was adorable then and he looks even more adorable (and happier!) now. I'm really happy for all of you. --JG
Yeah i love the video...He is too cute. I can not believe he is finally yours. I know this time could not come quick enough. Love to you all. Now just the capital and the flight home. Oh Boy
