Home for a little while




So we are finally back to our own home. It's so nice to be here, we missed it! It's been so nice to see family and friends again. My mom has lulu and piri, and Sofia loves them, she crawls around chasing them and screams/or talks (whichever way you want to look at it) in a very high pitched voice. It's quite funny. She went right away with my mom, and not quite sure about grandpa, but she warmed up pretty quickly. Hopefully my dad will update his blog with new pics. hint, hint ;-)
Also, we are currently in the process of unpacking our stuff from seattle. But we also have to pack for Costa Rica, which we leave on Monday; so time is flying. I'm very excited about going to visit my sister and nephews! they get to finally meet Sofia.
Kyra and Sofia today had a fun day, they played outside in the pool, they played inside, ate each others food. It's so crazy to see them play together, they're big girls now. They loved drinking the pool water! they would choke but then try again, drink some more, they're funny girls. Sofia is the same size, even though Kyra turns 1 on monday. Adri and I had a lot of fun hanging out again.

Alaska Pics




Here's a couple of pics. We visited McCarthy and Kennecott; that's where we are in the pic. The other is a pic of the same place but from the air. Trish and I took a little plane and got to see the mountain/glaciers it was amazing!! just beautiful. I'll try to post more pics soon. We are having so much fun here, it's like another country here. We saw a mama moose and baby along the road today; and yes, it was Aaron who spotted them. Tomorrow we go to Denali, hopefully we'll see some wildlife. We've had excellent weather, hopefully it continues (God willing).

Alaska

We are here in Alaska!! we had a good flight, Sofia did so good, no meltdowns in the plane. Yesterday we did a 6 hour cruise out of Valdez. We got to to see a whale, sea lions, sea otters and we we're able to get right to the glacier, which apparently is never the case. It was a lot of fun, Aaron pretty much took care of Sofia, while Trish and I took pictures. She took 2 good naps and she slept through the night!
