hi!
i love all your pictures and im SO glad you visited! (i too wasnt planning to visit and miraculously was able to!) my favorite picture is the one of you and your baby boy. he is looking RIGHT at the camera, like 'hey everyone, here i am, arent i cute!" i hope your process is miraculously quick for both kids! ot. do both kids have the same attorney? and are they planning to put the two babies together at any point? just curious, it doesnt matter, i am always curious about ligistics (SP) congrats again on such a great visit! cris....who also cross posted (i think )

Thank you all for your kind responses.
I truly think they are the most BEAUTIFUL babies in the entire universe!.. (but I may be a bit biased.. lol )Cris: They have 2 separate attorneys and are in separate foster homes. Our baby boy was a bit of a suprise and not planned from the very beginning. Our agency said that they could have prearranged the same foster parents and same attorney at prior to receiving the referral, but not after. This is ok.. they both have fantastic foster families and they seem to really like hanging out together when we had them during the visit.

Darling Children
Glad you had a good trip and hope you return soon to bring them home. It looks like your little girl is already a daddy's girl.

Your children are so beautiful... The ages are so close, and the do look a lot alike.. Did you pick out the names.. They are so close.. I don't think I could do international adoption... Getting to see the babies and hold them and leave with out them.. You both are so brave.. But maybe one day.. when we get our adoption from the states paid for we can give it a try.. How did you come to find two babies like that.. I guess I don't know the whole story.. Please fill me in...
