Sunday School


Every Sunday we make it to church...note: we make it :-) The idea is that we go to two services one where we attend as a family and the other where we serve...currently I am helping Stephen with the after service coffee refreshments when I am able to. Gabriela Zoe is enjoying the nursery...and all the workers there absolutely love her. The above picture is the day that for the first time she was placed in her tummy and instead of being upset she reached out and was having fun with the other children in the room. By now she is moving so much that the nursery workers say that they will have to move her to the crawlers room very soon...we'll see :-)

Eating Solids


Well by now Gabriela Zoe has been eating solids for almost a month!!! On Tuesday she will be completing her second week of eating breakfast, lunch and dinner (or as Rachel Ray puts it BLD) which means that we will be starting vegetables and fruits....I am ssooooo excited, if you want to know how excited I am I was contemplating giving her avocado today :-)!!! Her first spoonful of c...ereal was when we were in Palm Springs. We took the aerial tram and went to the top of the mountain where we had lunch. It was so special to not only have daddy there, not only to have grandpa and grandma there but to also experience something new in such natural beauty. So I have attached a link from that day so I hope you enjoy the pictures

Modeling for Mommy










once in a while I pull out the camera and pretend I'm a photographer...the quality of the photo may not be great but the fun is amazing...enjoy :-)

More Pool Fun











we just have a blast as a family in the water so here are some pics combined from a time with grandpa and grandma when they came to visit, when we went just the three of us and from our recent vacation with grandpa and grandma to Palm Springs....

Friends



So in the middle of July my very good college friend Sandra with her husband Dan (who is not excluded of coarse from the college circle of friends :-) ) came to visit us and spend one night at our home. We had not seen them for TWO years since they now reside in Germany so it was soooo wonderful to spend time with them...as you see they also had fun with Gabriela Zoe :-)
