YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!! Congratulations! What a great surprise and I can't wait to meet them in person. Don't worry, there will be 4 traveling families next Saturday and we will all be picture happy! What a great day!

By the way, I was so upset last week when the Australian was kicked off of Idol! I just don't know who to root for anymore...

Renee said...

Kristy,
I met your baby girl in Ethiopia and immediately thought of you because Belay told me she had an older sister and he didn't yet have a family. I was dying to tell you since I knew you requested two children under 8 but I didn't want to get your hopes up! I'll check for pictures but also ask Amy Breedlove little Nathan shared a row with your little baby girl! I am so so happy for you guys!

Unknown said...

Congratulations a million times over. If you will email a picture of them I will check and see if I have pictures too.

Melinda said...

congratulations Kristy! What an amazing blessing. We are bringing home a little girl who is 8, so if you learn any great hair care tips, let me know! Can't wait to see your travel date.

Oh!!! That is fantastic news! Congratulations! I'm so excited for you! When do they come home??? Do you even know yet? Too bad I got rid of all my little girl baby clothes... bummer. I'll wait until your eldest new daughter is here to see what size she is. Maybe we have some of Ashlee's outgrown items that would work for her. I'd love to see them be used for your daughter!

Joy said...

Wooohooo! Congratulations! Praise Him! I am rejoicing with you!
