Family pics
I am so excited about having Cristian home this year! Here are the pics that have been made into cards. We started mailing the first batch today (80 of them) and we are so excited!
I have enjoyed looking at some of your pictures! I am praying for those of you who are waiting on your babies.

I love seeing everyone's holiday pics!! Just beautiful, my dear forum fam!!
And you inspired me. I had been meaning to get on the ball, but this thread definitely lit the fire under me. So 2nite, here is the result...after TONS of pics (lots of them with Cristian looking the wrong way, trying to get away, etc  I finally got this one, yay!I ordered the cards to be printed to the store by tomorrow, yahoo!! I also included one of Adrian on the card, but I've already posted that pic on here before. ps-when I get the cards, I'll scan one and post it, too
