Almost There!

Thought I would post these pictures of Sofia I took this evening. She was doing some tummy time and is sooo close to rolling over. She was just about there...then she wasn't. I think she gets a little frustrated, but pretty soon she'll get it. Then there will be no stopping her. Also, I weighed and measured her yesterday. She now weighs about 16 pounds and is about 24 1/2 inches long.

All right, let's give this a try.


Here we go!


Okay, I'm up. Now what?


Just about there!


Oof! Well, I give up. Maybe tomorrow.

Video of Sofia

I thought I would try posting a video just to see if I could do it. Hopefully it works.

5 Months Old

I just can't believe it. My little girl is 5 months old today! The time has really flown by. Sofia is getting bigger every day and surprising me with something new she does all the time. Her new favorite "toys" are her feet and toes. She started really grabbing at them about a week ago. It's so cute. She hasn't rolled over yet, but is pretty close. She gets way up on her arms, but so far that's about it. All in due time. Other new things in the Hanna family: Lee got his deer last weekend. And, Sofia had her first snow today. It was just a dusting, but it was there...until it melted about an hour later. Not quite enough to make a snowman with. :) I'm sure we can expect more in the near future, though. Next week it's Thanksgiving, so I'm sure we'll all try to eat ourselves into a turkey and pie-induced coma. I know I'm looking forward to it.

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween everyone! Okay, I know I'm a day late, but we had so much fun trick-or-treating last night that I didn't get a chance to update. We had a great Halloween. I carved a couple of pumpkins in the afternoon...which was a lot tougher than I remember. Then, in the evening, I put Sofia in her costume, and we went to town for a little trick-or-treating. I think she just may be the cutest penguin ever. We first stopped at Grandma Jan's and Grandpa Jerry's. Then, we went to visit the Hegle's. Brooklyn and Lily were still there, so we got to see them in their costumes. They were a cute couple of witches. Next, we stopped in at my Grandma Bixby's and Aunt Barb's. After that, we headed back to my mom and dad's. Drew (Superman) and Mason (Power Ranger) stopped by. Later, Jeremy and Katie brought Emma over. She was dressed as a cute, little cow. Sofia did quite well for her first Halloween. Lee and I may have to help her out with her candy, though. It's a tough job... Anyhow, I had a blast, and I think Sofia had fun too. I just love Halloween!

Sofia's Baptism

On Sunday, we had Sofia's baptism. Pastor Harvey Henderson presided. Sofia's sponsors were my sister Jessie and our friend Argil. Sofia did really well. She was sleeping through most of the ceremony, but woke up when the water was poured over her head. She didn't cry though. Afterwards, the pastor took her around to share peace with the congregation. She did beautifully through the whole thing. Afterwards, we went up to the center for lunch. It was a cool, but beautiful day.
