Sophia's Baptism

This weekend Sophia took a tubby with God : ) It was an incredibly special event and we were so very blessed to share it with many of our friends and family, some who traveled far for the occasion. Thank you so much to everyone who helped make the day so memorable, especially Sophia's Nouna & Nouno (Godparents) Pella & Christos. We love you all!

Sophia & Luke-Partners In Crime

p.s. I ate dirt today for the first time. I liked it. I especially like ants. They make me giggle.

1 Year Photos!

They're in! Yay! Here are a few of the many wonderful photos (Despite drool, teething "owww" faces and some crazy hair) from Sophia's 1 year photo shoot. A big thanks to Corinna for taking such great pictures of our darling girl once again!

Traverse City

This past weekend mom and dad took me to Traverse City, MI to visit my God Sister Ailey and her mom & dad, Paula & Blake. It was very rainy but we still had a fantastic time! I had my very first sleep over and we saw a beautiful sunset. Ailey also let me play in her super fun play house that had cherry curtains and a cherry chandelier! We went to a petting zoo and a winery where A & I did our share of whining. We even took a tubby together. A has a fluffy doggie named Koda that is so big and feels kinda like my woobie. My woobie doesn't bark though, so I'll stick to cuddling my woobie. Such fun!

When I Grow Up I Wanna Be A Unicorn

Some Mornings Are Just Worse Then Others

An exceptionally bad hair day. Mom has no idea what happened here. She thinks I must be doing some breakdancing in my sleep to attain such hair artistry. It was her bright idea to "fix" it with a headband. Did I mention it was HER idea? Not mine.

Gutted

In light of the upcoming holiday, we wanted to share the following horrific photo.

Warning: washing machines may turn on you. And I'm not talking about the missing sock thing. They often have an evil streak that is masked by their shiny exterior. Don't be fooled, they may gut your stuffed animals. And worse, yet, they may gut them with the head of an innocent bystander.

Behold the precious moments/ostrich hybrid.

Overheard

Walking through a clothing store- little boy points to a pair of very expensive distressed jeans and in a very I'm-telling-on-you voice exclaims, "Oh no! Look dad, these jeans have grass stains on them already!"

Ah, the innocence and purity of children. Just wait. In time that same little boy is going to be ogling a nice $200 pair of "grass stained" jeans.

A Cow Lick and a Cowlick

Daddy, Mommy & Theo Bill took me to the Michigan State Fair yesterday and it was SO much fun. We had no idea just how much there would be to see and do and can't wait to go again next year.
