The Stucki's: Sophie's Blessing ... July 25, 2010

Sophie's Blessing ... July 25, 2010

With Katie turning eight on July 25th and with Sophie being born on July 19th, we decided to bless Sophie on the same day that Katie got baptized. My parents came into town for the weekend, as did Heather's dad and her sister (Dawn) and brother-in-law. It was a fantastic day, starting with the blessing of Sophie at less than a week old. Kym, Heather's sister, made Sophie's blessing dress and it turned out absolutely beautiful!

I guess we both have new baby girls to celebrate. Cora Grace was born on June 1st if you want to read about it on the blog. I do want to say what a beauty Sophie is though :) and the whole family is looking super cute and very happy as always, Congrats to that too. :) Aaron, let me just say how impressed I am that YOU blog.

Quotes to Remember

We were in Munich and just checking into our Hotel and both the girls needed to go to the bathroom. We all ran upstairs to our rooms and they both bolted into the bathroom. They began to fight over which one was going to use the toilet first. They argue for a few seconds when Katie shouts, "Mom, which one of us do you want to pee their pants?!" (May, 2009)
We were driving home from church last week and I said something like, "We are going to buy a Toyota Sequoia". Suddenly from the back we hear our 4 year old, Ashley, pipe up ... "You killed my Father...Prepare to Die!"...somehow she confused "Toyota Sequoia" with "Inigo Montoya" from the Princess Bride! (May, 2009)
Ashley and I were playing a card game when she says to me, "pause the game, I have to go to the bathroom". This is when I realized the technology gap between my childhood and hers.
I asked Ashley what country she was born in (she was born in Canada). She told me that she couldn't remember, so I tried to give her a hint. I said, "you were born in Cannnn...". To which she immediately exclaimed in triumph..."CANDYLAND!!"
Katie woke us up this morning telling us we needed to get up. Heather told her that her head hurt and she wasn't going to get up yet. Katie responds, "But you don't WALK on your head, so get up!"
