Visiting Anthony's Birthfamily

We had a nice visit with Anthony's birthfamily last weekend. Unfortunately, we didn't get any great group pictures. Someone who shall remain nameless was less than cooperative.

Basically, Anthony's stranger anxiety got the best of him. He REALLY doesn't like being approached. If you come on to him too strong he just plain won't warm up to you. He needs to approach you, and then he'll be great.

He and Yesenia had a great time together. Anthony really admired her pretty pink bike and she took him for rides on it. (Bob and I took turns holding the other side.) He looks EXACTLY like her. From the beginning everyone commented on it, but I'd never seen pictures of her as a baby. Now I really see the resemblance.
Everyone has the big eyes. Victoria, her mother, her grandmother and all the kids. When we're out in public its a toss-up whether people comment on Anthony's hair or eyes.

They do look a lot alike! Joshie's bdad has kids but we'll never be able to see them to see if there is a resemblance. You all are very lucky to have such an open adoption with his bfamily!

Blessings, Michelle
