I have been waiting to post when I had exciting news like....."I am pregnant!", but alas my body is telling me no! as much as we want it to say yes.....and every month I feel more and more like a failure....God's time and God's hands.....Sophia is our miracle, our "never going to happen, completely unexpected and beautiful"-miracle! We put our faith and trust in God then and He took care of us and that is what we are doing now.....it is just harder when you know...it isn't easy ;)
Speaking of Sophia.....she is freaking a whoot and wonderful and one of the most perfect beings I have ever known! Yes, she likes to challenge her mommy, more so than her daddy, but she is a girl and 1.5 years old...what do you expect?! That is what I have to remind myself all the time.....but oh those long glorious hugs and that infectious laugh help a lot too!!! Her vocabulary is so great her MD even made a comment about it...not too shabby for a kid with a cleft ;) Oh, and Soph had a milestone her head circumference at her 18 month check-up was in the 25th percentile!!!!!!!! it is HUGE now!!! ;) She has only ever been as high as the 10th percentile prior....crazy jump!
We have had a busy, but relaxing, but crazy summer.....with a trip to OK to introduce Sophia in the flesh to her Lundy/Horstman family and Sophia loved them!!! It had been way too long! Most of the time we have been working and then visiting my parents at the lake on the weekends....it has been good and enjoyable all around....
The pictures posted here are just a few from her 18 month photo shoot.....she loves Mother Mary and she melts my heart....I love that little girl with everything that is in me.....:) How could I not? Look at her!!! :)
I think those photos are adorable! She is very beautiful. I know exactly what you mean also about all the crazy love you feel for your child--I'm the same way!!!!
