Talking Picture Parade Anyone?? Fav Pic!

Well guys, it's going to be a long weekend with everything closed on Monday, so I thought we're due for a picture parade to pass the time! Post your favorite picture of your little one (or ones). I pray that all these waiting children will be home soon. And for those at home, give your kiddos an extra hug today from those of us still waiting...

I'll start...

Here's our kids chillin with dad in the morning...from our visit last weekend.

Here is one of my favorites from this summer. Marisol loves slurpees (though she did not get to drink this whole thing..we put some in a much smaller cup when we got home)

Here's my current fave: Jesse in the wading pool, all wet from vigorous splashing. He's 11 months old.

Lia's a little small for the stroller we borrowed when I visited. But she seemed to enjoy our shopping expedition. (The first of many!)

From Our visit in July

I love this photo of "Baby Sister." She looks like she's wearing her "title" with pride. My 9-year-old said she look really eager in this picture - eager to come home!
