One year updateThank you so much for our beautiful new children! We can not imagine being a more happy and complete family! Liam and Ella were so excited to meet their new brother and sister. We decided to change their names to Isadore Graham Andrés "Isa" and Anna Marie Lucía. Liam and Isa share a room and love it! They love to play outside together and they just love being brothers! Ella and Anna share a room and love to play together. They are so sweet and have really formed a wonderful bond. We are so happy to have four amazing children! Thank you so much!The Rais Family
Caleb, Marie, Liam (6), Ella (4), Isa (3), and Anna (2)
