Pictures of when your first bought your child home and how old were they?
Since I am not around children much I'm not good at what kids look like at what age, or how big they are at what age. I was wondering if everyone would show of there prince and princesses and say how old they are in the picture :-)

Pictures, you want us to share pictures...Love too!!!
 The kids change so quickly in those first months home...here's some of Alex...I'll have to scan some later of Arianna...since we didn't have a digital back in 2002. The 2 two picture scanned shots are all within the 1st month home...guess which one is the very 1st night? LOL...the one where I look like I'm gonna collapse? The one in the hat was one month and 2 days home...he was 8, then 9 months old...the rest are all within the 1st 4 months home...when he turned a year old.

Thanks so much for asking for these...I had a great time looking thru old shots of Arianna. I hope you don't mind,
 I scanned a bunch a pictures...here is Arianna. I didn't realize just how lucky we were with her...she was such a happy and pleasant baby...If they stay in order (each scan was 2 pictures), 1st night, 1st week, 2nd week, 1st b-day, and then before and after her surgery...11 months old to 13.5 months old... I also named them the same, so just scroll over them if they go out of order.She is wearing 3/6 months clothes...she was such a little munchkin!

Oooh, a new picture parade. I wanna play!
The picture of Henry in the light blue overalls was taken while we were still in Russia on trip #2. It is a picture of some of his first steps. He was 15 months at the time. The second picture is of Henry all dressed up to see his first musical play. It was taken when he was 2 years and 7 months (just a few weeks ago).

Here's a referral photo of Sam at exactly 3 years - it was taken on his 3rd birthday. And a picture of him today at 4.5 years.
Sophia is 3 months in the referral picture and 21 months now in the latest photo.

the first picture is of our girls at Memorial Park in Moscow, while we were waiting to go home. They were 21 months.
The second photo is of our son 2 days after we got home, which happened to be his first birthday.

The picture on the right is of Connor at the orphanage - 19lbs, 18 months old, July 2005.
The one on the left is from last week - he goes for his checkup next week, but he is somewhere between 27 to 29lbs, and he is 27 months old. He's growing fast!
