Baby #2 is coming!

Van is in labor. Baby is coming. Van's doctor scheduled the birth induction for Monday. But baby wants to come early. Baby is determined!

We've been waiting for a while now. I'm glad I put in the car seat earlier today. Seahawks are playing against the Rams tomorrow for the #1 seed in the NFC. I will probably miss the game tomorrow. But it's OK. I'm going to call her "Babyhawk"... or Power 17 (it's a power run play). 

First Sleepover!

Sophie invited her bff, Coralyn, for their first sleepover this weekend. There were some ups and downs, but for the most part, it went quite well. Only one major fight (over Ariel stickers) that was easily remedied (thank goodness there were several Ariel stickers to share). Otherwise, the girls had a fun 23 hours together.

teamwork! but alas, the puzzle was more work than the two could manage.

grilled cheese and tomato soup--delicioso!

All tucked in for story time.

Good night!

Enjoying some donuts for breakfast.

Ready for trick-or-treating!

Meeting the "real" Elsa.

Decorating my cookie and eating it too!

Sleepovers are exhausting!

Keiki has grown so much (almost as big as his mom), but he's still Sophie's baby. She loves to cuddle with him.

checking for fleas...

Hula!

We went to the aloha festival this weekend (Sam Choi was there!), and Sophie and her friend Coralyn entertained us with their own interpretive hula.

Fun in the Sun

We had unseasonably sunny and warm weather this past weekend so we headed to Lake Washington, which is warm enough even for Sophie to venture in.

She insisted on posing in this position.

This is what she gave me when I asked for a "serious" look.
