El Hogar

Sunday I got up and went to the Hogar to see all of my little babies. I accidently came during their lunch time so I had to wait for a half an hour until we could all play together.

Take a look at these sweet faces...

José David

A new little man named Walter...how cute!

My guy Max

Maria José LOVED the Barbie my friend Heather gave her :).
Every time I go to the orphanage the kids want to take pictures on my camera. I usually tell them no at first because it makes me nervous, but I always end up giving in.
Maria José's picture of me.
 Maria also took this beautiful portrait of this sweet girl...
 I love seeing pictures of kids taken by kids, they come up with some incredible images.

Here's my baby Jillybean. I love this child so much! She is full of sass and so sweet!
How could you not love that face?!?!
If I could adopt José Alberto and take him home tomorrow I would. He just isn't thriving in the orphanage in my opinion. He has so many issues, but he has such a beautiful heart. I'm overjoyed when I see him run to me with a big smile on his face!

















After hanging out at the orphanage for a few hours Lacey and I went to Bessy's house for dinner...
 Here's our dinner group...

It was so wonderful to see so many of my friends from last year! I LOVE, love, love, love these women :D!

LOVE these Hogar photos! You are such a great photographer, and the kids DO look so much bigger and more grown up! Ah, I have to get back there before they are too changed!
