This is one of our two newest additions! Allan is the little girl. God has made it clear that we are to add two more children to our family! We are going to be a family of 10 !!!! Definitely, our quiver is full! Their names are Allenni and Andrew. Allenni and Andrew are biological brother and sister. They live in Rakai, Uganda. We obtained legal guardianship of them on January 28,2008.While there God brought us a baby whom we named Isaiah and we obtained his guardianship on May 26,2008.(you can read our blog for the whole story at http://www.journeytome.com adoptionstories/eli carter) The Americans in the photo are Scott and Karla and they are building a home for the tremendous amount of kids left parentless by HIV. Please link to their website on my links page to view their work.

Allan and Michael are in this picture. Michael is in Scott's arms on the left, Allan is in Karla's arms on the right. The other little girl is a resident of the orphanage just built and the other little boy is Scott and Karla's son.

This is apicture of Allen when she was found and before she came to the orphanage to live. She is receiving her vitamins given out by a relief agency.

We got new pictures of Allan from a couple who had traveled to Uganda in June to work in the orphanage there. They are adopting Michael, the little boy we originally were adopting. We are so glad he has a family now. We don't have any new pictures of Andrew. Isn't Allan's smile just beautiful???

Isaiah is our baby God gave us while in Africa trying to obtain passports for Allenni and Andrew. Though he just turned 2, he is the size of a six month old.
