Hi!
Just found your blog and had to drop you a quick hello. My husband and I have also adopted twins from Ethiopia. (They were 3 months old when we flew to get them. They just turned 2 years old! Time flies.)
I always enjoy finding other folks who have adopted twins as well! :0) (We moms of twins have to stick together!) Your little ones are so beautiful! :0) Congrats to you!
Oh. We have a blog too. I'd be more then happy to share it. Just drop me a note to my email requesting a "google invite". (Its ok if you don't want one. I just wanted to say hello!)
Best of luck to you all!

I love your boys! Seeing them reminds me so much of K & O when they were that age! Such handfuls, but so incredibly cute!!!!!!!!
