Hello....

I've got a few new pix to add----
Sofia was able to take 3-4 steps on her own last night. She has accomplished that a few times now. And she seems content to not really walk too much more than that. I'm sure that will change in in the upcoming days,weeks, and months.

Random thought....

We need to use our video camera much more. We bought it before our 1st visit trip to see Sofia. Since we got back in April, we have hardly used it at all. I had never owned one before that.

We are in Vancouver today, but will go back to Eugene tomorrow afternoon.

Hi

Sorry for the lack of anything on the blog here.
We have been busy bees commuting between Vancouver and Eugene.
Hopefully we will end that in the near future.
Sofia is doing just great and excited the commuting is hopefully getting closer to ending.

Animal Tribute+Weekend Plans (QUACK!!)

Greetings to all!!

Well Friday once again is here and in a real twist of events we are going to Eugene. As some of you may or not know, we are in the process of selling our house here in Vancouver, WA and moving to Eugene, OR.

So we are headed down today after work. We pick up Uncle Ken at PDX and get to torture him with a baby CD that will be played in a loop for the 2 hour drive. Sofia has not seen Ken in a while, so it will be fun to get them together. She can impress him with her new skills of walking and eating everything in sight:)

Since we post 100% Sofia pictures on here--I wanted to give a shout out to the pets of the house. Sorry toonces, I did not have a photo of you.

Happy Halloween!!

Well another big day for our big girl. Little did she know this morning, that later in the day everyone she knows would all be dressed so SILLY.

The day started out as usual, with morning playtime and some good eats. But something was strange in the air and their was much more orange than usual. While S was out and about with Mom, people had on some pretty silly outfits.


As we hinted at earlier, witches was the big theme this year. Not only was the little bug a witch, so was Mom, Aunt Shelli, and cousin Tori. Dad elected not to a be a witch, but a cross between a mummy and Screech Powers.

We had a pre-party at some friends and then it was off in search of some candy. The candy was plentiful and not hard to come by.

Sofia had a blast with her 1st Halloween and is fast asleep now, probably excited for next year.









Happy Birthday Grandpa Norman!!!

Hello from the Pumpkin Patch...

A Very Special Birthday Gift from Guatemala

The outfit Sofia is wearing in the following photos was a very special gift from our dear friends in Guatemala. We feel very fortunate to be able to stay in touch with her amazing foster family. They sent this beautiful traditional Guatemalan dress and shoes as a birthday gift.

Auntie Karen ready for the BIG Interview!

We've been having some technical difficulties with the blog and haven't been able to get any new pics up for the last week or so. It seems to be working now, so we'll get back on the blogging.
