Our Babies in Haiti...

We have been praying about a baby girl for the last couple weeks, while we've been waiting on more information and lab results for her. We received that information this evening, and she's healthy. We have the referral paperwork, which we will sign and send in tomorrow.

Kaylen's little brother and sister are Ralph & Celena. (Well, these are their names currently. Still working on the names we'll give them, but will let you know soon.) Ralph will be a year old on August 4th. Celena is nearly 3 months old - was born just a week before my 30th birthday, on May 3rd.

We'll also be posting pictures of them soon, but you should be able to find them on the orphanage/facilitator's website, under the "Meet the Children" link on the left. Celena will probably still be under the "Available Babies" page for a few days yet, but Ralph has already been moved to the "Children in the process of being adopted" page. UPDATE: Celena has been moved over there already today (Weds 7/25). (Thanks for the update, Terry!) :)

I do have a few other pictures of Ralph that others have sent me. He arrived at the orphanage during the last orpganage mission trip in Late May/Early June, so a couple other adoptive moms sent me a few extra pictures, and their memory of his arrival. We don't have any other pictures of Celena yet. There is another mission group heading to Haiti in the next month or two, so I'll of course be begging those going to take more pictures and give our babies lots of love for us.
