A Trip To "The Haute"...



Sorry these pictures are dark, but something was VERY wrong with my camera today... ERH!!!
Addie and I made the trek to Marshall, IL this afternoon to meet Sophie. She is soooo precious and tiny. You forget how small they start out when you're used to carrying around a 10 month old butterball! Lisa and Steve just beam when they look at her or talk about their experience. It's really touching and so special to see them as a new little family. Sophie was so good, didn't even make a peep the whole time we visited. She just laid there looking all cute and cuddly in her pink pj's.
On our way back from Marshall, we stopped in Terre Haute to visit with Grampy. (Nana is currently in Asia, traveling through the Chinese countryside.) We checked in on him to make sure that he was eating well and staying out of trouble, while she's away. He took Addie to Gander Mountain and bought her a life jacket for the boat. We went out to dinner and to the mall. Little girl was so excited by everything, she talked about all of the day's events for over an hour on the trip home. It was mostly soft gurgles, la-la's, mama's and dada's mixed with shrieks, but she was cracking me up! I can't imagine that these will all be words someday. Oi, we're gonna have a talker on our hands.
