Pictures from our first day!

Sebastian looking at the photo album we sent down before our arrival. He carries it everywhere!

John feeling under the weather today, in bed for a good night's sleep with his cars.

Sebastian ready for bed rehydrating. Even being sick, we get smiles!


Catherine loving the jumpy at the orphanage! She might be a daddy's girl!!

Oh Boy.....trying to see what I am writing because the tears keep coming. I look like a mess but all for a wonderful reason, of course. I am beyond words of excitement and joy for the two of you. It's been a long journey of patience, trust and faith. The time is FINALLY HERE! Look at your BEAUTIFUL family – “mom and dad”. Doesn't that have a nice ring to it!?!? Enjoy every second and remember to laugh no matter how crazy it gets. Our thoughts and prayers continue for all of you. And, remember those little ones are very resilient!
Try and get some rest!

Love ~ The Kellers

Congrats! I am so happy for you! They are just beautiful. I hope they get better soon. We're another LSS famly. We adopted our daughter Lucy (los Pisingos 07) and just got home in March with our little Mateo and he was so sick with a virus when we got him. I was ohhh so apologetic (and Very grateful) each time I handed off our laundry bag full of poop and puke to the staff. Yuck!


Please greet everyone there from us. Feel free to email me privately if you have questions about anything.

We had to go to your site again this morning so Lauren could see the pictures! She says they are little cuties! She thinks it is funny that Catherine may be the little turkey in the group! :0) She says hi and wants to know when we can meet the kids!
Have a great day!
Mary & Lauren, too!
