Congrats Price Family! This is the first time we've given a family nine children! You have been blessed with...Oksana Olena and Kalyna Alla are three year old twins from Ukraine. Both are deaf. Oksana loves to draw and is very talented. She always has wanted to take art lessons. Kalyna has a natural knack for just about any kind of sport. She really enjoys swimming. Doctors believe it may be possible that they could hear if they had hearing aids.Abbey Jaida, Chrissie Gina, Pippa Mckenzie and Bambi Arlene are nine year old quadruplets from England. Abbey is very talkative, while Chrissie is very shy. Pippa is athletic, Bambi is very Artistic. Chrissie has an amazing singing voice. And Abbey can play the piano beautifully!Cort Heino, Gunter Elias and Angelika Katja are five year old triplets from Germany. Cort and Gunter are very strong. They like to wrestle with each other. Angelika is ver girly. She wants nothing more than to sit in bows and frills and play tea-party with her baby doll, Ebba. *NOTE* Names can be changed
**NOTE AGAIN** Please let us know how they are doing!
***AND AGAIN*** After your update, feel free to apply for more children!

Thank you so much for these beautiful children! We have had to move into a larger house because our old one simply wasn't big enough for eleven children. Oksana and Kalyna are doing so well. We have signed Oksana up for art classes, and her teacher says she is one of the best students in the class. Kalyna has joined the local swim team and she is trying other sports to see which ones she likes best. We got hearing aids for the girls, and they seem to be working pretty well. However, when they're at home, they prefer to communicate through sign language. The quadruplets are adjusting very nicely. We decided to change their first names to Adeline, Clara, Philippa, and Beatrice because we didn't like their original names. The house is never silent with Adeline around. Clara has come out of her shell a bit, and she is making more friends. Her teacher says she is a wonderful student. Philippa is playing soccer and is also doing gymnastics. Beatrice is taking art classes, and we love to have her work around the house. Clara loves to sing while Adeline plays the piano. They sound so beautiful together!The triplets are delightful. Cort and Gunter love playing with Dominic- with so many girls in the house, the guys have to stick together! All of the triplets just started kindergarten. The boys are in the same class, and Angelika is in the one across the hall. We've heard that the boys are good students, but very energetic. Angelika is doing very well, although her teacher says she is very quiet. She is such an excellent child. She has made a new friend, Madeleine. The two spend every waking moment together, playing with their dolls. Thanks again for these children! We are so grateful to have these children in our lives. Our house is very crowded, but it is filled with love and laughter.
