Married Couple's Bible Study

Two years ago we helped put together a group of our married friends for a once a month Bible study. Just yesterday we met for our monthly meeting, and I was just extactic to think about the incredible life changes that we have all been through together and how drastically our lives have changed, together, in the past couple of years.
When we first came together, one of the couple's had a son, Gabe. Then, at every monthly meeting following each of the couple's slowly announced that they too were going to be expanding their family- until all of us were expecting! Since, we have all had our beautiful children and continue to grow in fellowship. It is a true blessing to be apart of this group and to be challenged in our faith with our friends AND to be going through the same stage in life!
In the past few weeks all of our kiddos have turned 1 (with the exception of Gabe, who turned 2)! They are all walking and are just as cute as can be. he he
As you know, Chris and I will be expecting our second child in July and it was annouced just a couple of weeks ago that Mercy and Sergio will also be expecting their second in November! It is fun to look at the succession of pictures...
This is a picture taken in April 2007. (from left to right): Annie and her son Gabriel (age 1), Sarah- who had her son in February 2007, Mercy (holding Jonathan) who was due at the end of April 2007, Samantha (holding Reece, Sarah's son) was due June 2007, myself who had Jonathan in February and Alia who was due in just a couple of weeks of this picture.
This picture was taken just a few short months later in July 2007 when had just had our babies... aren't they cute?? They were so small!
And look at us now! (from left to right): Sarah with Reece, Annie with Gabe, Mercy with Ana Maria and myself with Jonathan.
And, they just play SO WELL together!
