Sophie...updated

Here are some current photos of Sophie--all grown up!

Best Day Ever!

Wonder Woman!

What About Rainbow?

I feel bad that we haven't kept up this blog, especially once Rainbow came along. Thus, here's some photos of her from the past 20 months.

Look at that sweet thing...no sign yet of the terror to come.

 

 

 grumpy/happy...two emotions she's got down.

 

 

 

But she's mostly a happy baby.

 

First Camping Trip

It was early April and we headed out to a sunny coastal site on the hood canal. It was sunny for a little bit, and super windy!

Kindergarten Photo!

Sorry to be so absent on this blog site! We're working on getting some posts up that include life with Rainbow Flower, but for now, please enjoy my favorite school photo, thus far, for Sophie.

The Best Story!

Sophie and I have been trying to come up with new ways to tell stories with our blankets, toys, traffic on 99, anything really. We also have a lot of fun reinterpreting an old story or to give it new possibilities. It's my way of teaching her how to tell stories -- I just can't help it. And she has come up with really good stories -- very short though. Here's the best yet:

"Once upon the time, there was a balloon. And it tasted like a balloon. The end."


The word "tasted" captures it all: curiosity, disappointment and perhaps bitterness. I can taste it in my mouth :)
