A zoo trip on Levi's due date!

We decided to celebrate Levi's due date by going to the Zoo so Sonora could enjoy seeing the animals and hopefully help Levi come out with all the walking! We had a great time while we were there and Sonora saw a lot of her favorite animals that she points out in her books.

Sonora's first bike ride!

Last week Mom & Dad took Sonora on her first bike ride around the block. She was fascinated, then scared, then in pain, and finally content and happy! I think she's going to like going bike riding with Grandpa and that will make Grandpa very happy!! :)




And they are off!!

RJ's Birthday Party

The day before Valentine's Day, we went to our friend RJ's 1st birthday party. It was a beautiful day so we decided to dress up in our "Valentine's" outfits.

RJ & Sonora got to spend some time in the bounce house at his party but apparently RJ didn't find it very fun!

Sonora, on the other hand, loved it and "bounced" on her knees until we finally had to pull her out of it because the big kids wanted to jump.

RJ loved his birthday cake. It took him some time to really get into it but after awhile, he was covered in cake & frosting!

Happy Birthday RJ! We had a great time at your party!

2010 Farm Expo

My parents took Sonora to the Farm Expo this year and she had a great time seeing the tractors, cows, and especially the balloon man!




Thanks for a fun day Grandma & Grandpa!

A cute new outfit!

My good friend Susan Wilson made this beautiful dress for Sonora since she can tell how much Sonora loves dressing up! Thank you Sube - we love it!

I found it!!

About a month ago, Aunt Nancy came down to play with Sonora and help us out so I could rest/relax before Levi's birth. While she was here she took many pictures of Sonora on her camera and let Sonora play with it. Apparently one day while no one was looking, Sonora hid it (put it down while she was playing in a cabinet) and thus a frantic search was on for Aunt Nancy's phone for the next day. We finally convinced ourselves that Aunt Nancy must have misplaced it or lost it while shopping because we simply couldn't find it anywhere. Well, turns out...Sonora did hide it and she found it too! She was playing again in the cabinet in the kitchen and showed Steve what she found. We were shocked and surprised that indeed it was Aunt Nancy's camera! The unfortunate part was Aunt Nancy had already bought a new camera a week prior to Sonora finding the old one. Thankfully Aunt Nancy thought it was hilarious and now she has two cameras! :)


A very proud Sonora!

The "New" Nursery

Well we have officially finished the New and Improved Double Nursery! We decided to combine both kids in the same room (we'll see very shortly if that was a wise decision or not!) so we had to paint one half of the room for a boy and we left the other side PINK for Sonora! As you'll see from the following pictures, Sonora loves the dots in her new room and we are very happy with the results that Steve did. It might resemble neopolitian ice cream, but we love ice cream around here!











We look forward to Levi's arrival...hopefully any day now!
