We have had our daughter home for 4 years now. Our bio dd was 4 when we brought home her (then 2 year old) sister. After we got past the initial adjustment (about 10 days), they have been the best of siblings. They play beautifully, look out for each other and fight. If they looked alike, you'd never suspect that one was adopted.
We also had an 11 week old baby when we brought her home and added another baby 18 months ago. The four are so cute together. I just love watching my little crew. We are looking into adopting a sibling group and the kids can't wait. They are really excited about adding more kids to the family.
