Babies, Babies Everywhere!

What a joy today was, doing nothing but hanging out with 30 beautiful babies! I'll mainly let the photos speak for themselves, as you can see how we all spent our time. It was such a blessing to be able to hold and play with these little ones. The majority of them can't be older than 8-10 months, as only a couple walk. There was even a five day old baby. One of the men on our team is a cabinet maker, so he and a couple others made a table and chair for the kids, with plans to make more over the next few days (if they can figure out how to replace the two chargers that burned out....).
Recycling at its best.....

Tonight we headed back to the sqare where we were once again the center of attention. People were pushing their babies at me to get Mike to take polaroid pictures of us, and we sang songs to one of our teams guitar playing. It was a special time, being that we were in the government square.

Also, I was wondering..is this little girl still at the orphanage? We called her Esther and she stole my heart! :)

Yes, your Esther is definitely here, and I can see why she captured your heart. She's a little grown up. I will give her some extra tlc tomorrow for you:)
