Brody Mannix - Ireland - 8
Lazar Anisim - Russia - 7
Virgil Tiberiu - Romania - 4 "Ari"
Kerr Neacel - Scotland - 6 months
We adopted four beautiful boys from four different countries, so naturally there was a bit of a language gap.
Brody is the eldest, we adopted him from Ireland, he has curly blonde hair and green eyes. His smile can make anyone smile. Brody and Lazar are firm friends even though they dont always understand each other. Brody has just taken up the cello and loves it, and we have recently discovered that he has a talent for dancing, so he is also doing ballet lessons which he adores!
Lazar is somewhat similiar in temprament to Brody, both boys are very quiet and love more art subjects like music and art and dancing etc.. Lazar has started to learn the clarinet which he loves dearly and has also taken a shining to gymnastics. He has dark thick hair and dark blue eyes.
Virgil is a very outgoing 4 year old and will let nothing stand in his way. He is now named "Ari" because he has the fight of a tiger, he loves his new nickname and now will only answer to it. He is very protective of his brothers even though he is so small. He loves ballet, singing and his new instrument the trupmet. He has a shock of curly black hair and big brown eyes.
Kerr is our baby, and a gorgeous one at that! He has light blonde hair and big blue eyes. He loves his brothers to bits and cooes whenever one is around. He loves music and we think he will become a jazz musician!

Avery Elisabeth and Jenna May
I just love my two little girls! Here's how they have been doing:
Avery Elisabeth is just adorable! She has demanded we call her Ellie, after hearing some "cool big kids" going by nicknames. Ellie has gorgeous straight brown hair and big brown eyes. She likes to wear her hair in cute little low pigtails in ribbons. Ellie has medium toned skin, with a few freckles. She is precious. Ellie is a strong-willed free spirit, as you can tell. Ellie decided she wanted to take dance lessons, so we have enrolled her in a local dance school, She has already begun making friends, and she recently begged to have them over to watch Beauty and the Beast. This Saturday I will host a bunch of 5 year olds to have a movie party. From what my talkative 5 year old tells me, she is becoming quite popular in the kindergarten society. We love our Ellie!
Jenna, or Jennie as we call her, is a beautiful blue eyd blondie. She likes to wear her hair in pigtails, because she always wants to be like her sister. She is also settling in quite well, and making some new friends. She really likes the color pink, and her room is decorated in that color. She is going to preschool now, and loves it.
Our two girls are just awesome!!

Siblings:
Nathan Kisecawchuck - 8 - Canada
Gabriel Muscowequan - 6 - Canada
Susie Elizabeth - 4 - USA (Suffers from Cerebral Palsy)
Veronica Marianne - 3 - USA
Nathan, 8, Canada
Nathan has short, cropped dark hair and ice blue eyes. He loves swimming and shows a great talent for it. He can get very protective of Gabe, but is starting to be a great help with Susie and Nica.
He has adjusted quite well to his new home; he has a lot of friends at school, who all love his accent. We have found that he likes to be the centre of attention and is a little insecure, but he is definitely settling in very well!
Gabriel 'Gabe', 6, Canada
Gabe was very shy when he first joined us, hardly talking at all. With a little coaxing from Nathan, however, he now speaks. He is fascinated by Susie, but is very good with her. He is very musical and we have already bought him a keyboard and he spends at least 1/2 an hour a day on it (by choice, of course!). He played to me yesterday a tune he made up himself, and I have to say it was very good! Susie loves to listen to him play; he often brings the keyboard down to the lounge and plays various tunes to her. He has settled in fairly well at school and already has two 'best friends', Kyle and Shane. He has dark, long-ish, wavy hair and grey eyes.
Susie Elizabeth, 4, USA
Susie suffers from Cerebral Palsy and spends much of her time in her wheelchair but that doesn't stop her! She is the loudest, bubbliest and most confident of the 4 children. She attends a special school in the mornings, and in the afternoons she loves to help me around the house. She loves things to be tidy, and can get quite distressed if they aren't. She has straight, shoulder-length brown hair and bright green eyes, with a sprinkling of freckles over her nose. She loves to play with Gabe.

Keira Michelle / Logan Tyler - Australia - 7 months
Keira has beautiful big blue eyes(we hope they don't change), the longest eyelashes i've ever seen on a baby and blonde hair. She is a little fussy. We have been seeing the doctor as because the twins real mother was hooked on drugs they have slowly had to wean them off, she should be off them in the next few mons but her brother still has a long way to go. They believe Logan took the most drug intake in the womb because he is extremely fussy and still on a fairly high dosage. Loagan has brown hair and big blue grey eyes. Daddy loves his baby boy, he can't wait till he is old enough to play football with him and take him fishing etc. We were told Logan may have some learning problems when he is older but it's too soon to tell, so far his development is going well.

Gyongyi Erzsebet
We adopted Gyongyi when she was several months old, and she remembers nothing of her origional home in Hungary. Instead all her memories and life exists in America with us!
Gyi-Gyi has short curly blonde hair that bonces as she walks! She has light brown eyes and pale skin. She is so small but she is growing so fast! Gyongyi is a little beauty and she loves wearing dresses and skirts. Expecially her red dress with floral designs on it and a matching red bow she loves to have me tie into a half pony tail.
Gyongyi is a smart 2-year-old with a large vocabulary and learning right there with her older siblings. Gyi-Gyi loves to sit down when my husband and I are helping Lalita and Akhil with their homework. She also loves to have us read to her so she can follow along with her finger and she is starting to read them on her own with very little help. She loves to jabber off the Alphabet and numbers while she is marching through our home and she enjoys adding her numbers on her hand and even mulipling with the hand, she does all this on her own and my husband and I stare at her in amazement! We put her in a special before-start-program where she astonishes her teachers there as well.
After long months of Potty Training Rituals Gyi-Gyi has finally learned to use the potty on her very own! And she only uses pull ups at night that she doesn't even soil anymore! She also love to take bubble bathes and dress herself, usally she'll end up with on article of clothing missing or her shirts and pants on backwards!
Gyi-Gyi also goes to a play group three times a week. There she has meet a few friends she loves to play with. Judy, Piper, Faith, Hannah, and Basil all get together so much and play with dolls, color, and play house. These girls will stick together till the end, or so we (all the parents) say!

Lalita Dipali
Lalita is much like her twin brother, but yet they both seem to find seperate things they enjoy daily. Lalita has long black hair that she wears down with barets, headbands, and bandans the majority of times, but sometimes she'll pull me down and make me french baraid her hair into two long pigtails or have me pull her hair back into a beautiful ponytail or a fancy bun. Her darker skin, black eyes, and hair make her so wonderful and beautiful little 7-year-old.
Lalita is small for her age due too all the years of hunger and weakness in India. Although she is so tiny she is strong willed and hopeful. She is the one who always keeps us up when we are so sad. She has such a large heart and takes care of us all when we need someone else.
Lita started second grade with her brother this past month and is a brilliant little girl. Unlike her brother Lita excells at reading, writing, and math, as well as music and social studies. She on the other hand hates gym and science! Lita is in a group called Synergy- which is for gifter students- smarter students. She loves it because she gets to leave class and go in a seperate room to do indiviual problems and challenges.
At home she loves to jump on the trampoline and swim in our under ground pool. She is a natural fish! She also enjoys playing in our play house and swing set with her sister and her friends. She also loves playing house and dolls, and occasionally game cube with her brother. She also loves cooking and playing board games. She also is often found by the tv. Her favorite shows are Spongebob, Dora the Explorer, Care Bears, Pooples, My Little Ponies, Blue's Clues, Thornberries, Rugrats, PB&J, and Lizzie Migure. She also loves disney movies, Hilary Duff movies, and Pixar Movies.

Akhil Ganesh
Akhil is a mischevious little 7-year-old. His darker skin and nearly black hair makes the boy so mysterious and fun. His black eyes identical to his sister's can invade your thoughts and mind.
Akhil is a tired child who has been through too much. In India, his sister and him had been alone on the streets starving and unhealthy. He was the worse of the two when they came to us last October because he took care of his twin, he gave his sister what little they could find and keep nearly nothing for himself. He still holds those qualities, he is over protective of both his sisters and puts himself in all kinds of danger for them-
This past summer Gyongyi was playing with her favorite ball in our neighbor's yard while my husband and I were out of town and her ball rolled into the street and she ran right after it. Akhil saw the car coming and immediatly ran at her and shoved her aside, and in turn he was hit, my neighbor was inside with Lalita and her children and the driver of the car rushed the two to the hospital and Akhil survived with a sprained leg and cuts and brusies. The driver now happens to be the one who watches the kids while we are gone!
Akhil started second grade with his twin in september at a local privet school. His behavior "problems" from last year have drastically changed for the good. Although he struggles with reading, writting, and math he loves science, drawing, music, gym, and social studies.
At home we got the trio a game cube system that Akhil loves the most. The 23 games we happen to have collected are nearly all mastered by the Indian boy. His favorite games though are pokemon and mario games. Akhil also loves watching tv, his favorite shows happen to be Pokemon, Digimon, Inyuasha, Kenshin, Power Rangers, and Kirby. He hates the shows like Spongebob and Blue's Clues which both of his sisters love.
