We're heading back soon . . .

We finally got Aliyah's passport in the mail and have bought our airline tickets back to Honduras.  We'll be returning January 10th.  We've really enjoyed living around family for the first time since we each lived at home in high school, but we're pretty excited to get out of the cold and back to the ministry at the hospital too.  And since you all ask, here's more pics of Aliyah.

Just in case you think that's all she does, she also eats, messes her diaper a lot and sometimes cries.

This is my sister, Gaida, and her husband, Greg.  They were complaining last night that they never show up on our blog.  So, we thought we'd change that.

And this is their cute kid and Aliyah's cousin, baby Sofija: 

If anyone else is feeling left out, please email us a picture or better yet, come visit us, and you'll probably end up on our blog too!

Oh, and here's the latest pictures of Aliyah:

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!

Everybody loves to hold baby Aliyah

Here are some of the pictures of Aliyah's visitors.  We didn't get pictures of everyone.  So, if you have a picture of yourself holding Aliyah - we'd love to have it!  Email it to us: abbyandrimas@yahoo.com  She's done really well with change so far except after 4 long days traveling around Thanksgiving, she had about 2-3 cranky days while adjusting back to the norm.
