How about a picture parade of referral photos?

Here's my daughter in the photo that drew me to her. It's the first one I saw on a photolisting and there was just something about her eyes. So glad I saw this picture!!!

Here is my little guy! I just love seing all these cute little ones

I'm always up for a picture parade.

Here's a referral pic of Gabriella. I fell in love with her the instant I saw this pic.

Here's McKinley. This was the first picture we saw of him and we were in love. DH and I loved his little quirky smile. The picture reminded my family of my brother as a baby.

Here's one of our referral pictures. Talk about falling instantly, hopelessly in love!

The referral picture of Abby, 3 weeks old, in the green came up first on the computer screen. This overwhelming feeling and a flood of tears came over me. I had not expected that at all. I felt so immensely blessed to be pressented the possibility of adopting this precious little one. She did not at all look like I expected. One of the things that surprised me is that she had no hair. She actually looked alot like I did as a baby. I did feel a sign of recognition as she had the cute almond eyes I had hoped for. Also in her video she sports an adorable unilateral dimple. Gabi just looked like a perfect doll and some how more mature then the two weeks of age she was. She was so feminine and had the beautiful head of hair I was expecting in a baby from Guatemala. A very special moment the first time seeing the referral picture. Unlike others who were so good to wait for their DH to be home to see the pictures, my older children and I could not resist to peak. So all DH got was two phone calls, one with me telling him we got referrals and the next that we are taking them. LOL There was no way we were not persuing an adoption on these two precious babies if they would let us. Anna

Here's my favorite referral picture of Sabrina - who is 7-months old today!

We receiveed Melia's referral when she was 2 weeks old and Danielle's when she was 5 days old.

Melia is almost 19 months now and Danielle was three months old on Friday...

Here is one of Matthew's referral pictures. It's so hard to believe that it's been 14 months since we first saw this picture.

Here is my sweet Kemry Abigail. I cannot wait to get updated pictures.

[ManyTimesBlessed]

Wow, do you think Kemry's diaper is big enough? LOL! She's adorable btw. I'm enjoying everyone's pictures.

Here are my pictures (you guys have seen them before, but I can't resist sharing them anyway!):

Jayden's: I thought he was adorable when I first saw him, but I was also trying so hard to protect my heart because we had lost Erick only a few days before and I didn't want another baby - I wanted Erick. Jayden's picture did give me a spark of hope, though, that continued to grow as the weeks went on. Now, of course, you all know that I am wrapped around his little finger and completely smitten.

Lillian's: I couldn't believe how beautiful she was. We weren't ready to start another adoption, but she pulled at me. I showed the picture to DH and that was the end of it! We knew she had to come home to us.

This is Bryce's referral picture.. My sons were not too impressed! When I first saw her, I thought she looked like my Dad.. A lil' old man!

Here's my little Josh - all bundled up like he was born in Alaska!
