Picture parade: Show off ALL your children!

For those of you that have your babies home, go on and show them off with their siblings....

For those that don't have your babies home, show off pictures of your children together or seperate

For those of us that don't have a referral yet, show off any children you DO have at home (or in Guatemala).....

And for those of you without any children at all (yet), show off your furbabies....

I think and hope I included everyone

You don't have to ask twice. Here are the pictures I received of Lili about a month ago.

Here is our beautiful boy, Owen

The pictures of him standing up just crack me up, the one lying down is quite the Glamour Shot! What a character that little Owen.

Carolyn, loving all the babies

Here are my two cuties taken last week in Antigua. I haven't taken a single photo since we've been home!

Their shirts say "Soy la hermana grande" and "Soy el pequeño hermano". I'm the big sister/little brother.

Ok, you twisted my arm. Here is my group! The boys have been so excited to have Maya home with us. It seems like she has been with us forever even though it's only been 5 months. I love the picture of Preston getting a kiss from Maya. Preston couldn't be any more pale and Maya next to him with her beautiful dark skin, I love it. Her "Zacky" left for college last week and she is bummed.
