Summer Wind Down

I know... 

I am so far behind posting on the blog.  I tried to stay caught up, but we've just been having so much fun enjoying life that the blog took a backseat to everything else.  We have enjoyed several trips to the beach, time at the pool, and playing at home.  Sophie loves playing in the sand and water at the beach and the pool.  At the beginning of the summer, Sophie was a little afraid of the water, but now, she's doing much better.  She is still not too keen on going underwater, but every time we go, she gets better and better.






We made a trip to Birmingham for Sophie's one year check-up at the International Adoption Clinic.  The wonderful staff there told us that she is doing great and not to come back until Sophie gets ready to start kindergarten.  We were SO pleased by this!  We thought she was doing great, but it's music to the ears to hear it from the professionals!  While we were in Birmingham, we got to see our friends Rhonda and Hannah Grace.  We met for lunch, and sweet little Hannah Grace asked us to come along for dessert at the yogurt shop.  We were so glad she did!  We LOVE yogurt (especially Baba)!!



Sophie has been so excited about going to her "new school".  She is going to attend 3K at Monroe Academy, my alma mater.  She received a letter in the mail from her teacher telling her how excited she was the Sophie was in her class.  Sophie loves to get mail, so this was extra special!

We hope that everyone had a great summer!
