Again, I apologize for being late. Hopefully all the other photosets from this summer will help ease that pain. Here’s Sophia’s latest photo set. You’ll notice there’s not a lot of photos in this batch. After the Branson trip, I somehow forgot about my camera. If you peruse through the other photos, you’ll find shots of Sophia that aren’t included in this one. How is Sophia? She’s growing up before our very eyes. She walks everywhere she can, she’s quite the little talker, and she’s got a bit of a temper. She’s a gadget girl, loving my iPods and cell phone. She’s also a big Backyardigans fan. She likes Playhouse Disney (“it’s the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, come inside, it’s fun inside”, sung by They Might Be Giants, of all people). But we’ve noticed it’s the music in these shows that gets her interested. Did I mention she likes Metallica’s “Enter Sandman”? I hope I can get a video of her banging her head before the song gets too old for her.
lots and lots of pictures
Ok. Here’s a handful of photos taken since late June. Very sorry that it’s taken me so long to get these up. It’s not like I had much else going on this summer, like helping implement a new blood gas system for our respiratory department, troubleshooting problematic handheld devices for the phlebotomists in our lab, representing my IT department as its customer service advisor, taking 2 vacations, and, OH YEAH … help CL care for and raise our 14-month old daughter. So, without further ado…
HSHS Motherhouse – My employer sent me along with a select group on a pilgrimage to our corporate headquarters in Springfield IL. I at first had my reservations about the trip, but after having gone, I’m glad I did. Definitely a sight to see.
Splash City – when my family was in town, Christine, Sophia, and I took my sister, her husband, and their daughter to this local water park for some summertime fun.
Gateway Arch – this was my 2nd trip to the top of this St Louis landmark. Again, we took the out-of-towners along for the ride.
Cards vs Giants – our 2nd game of the year, and Rochelle’s family’s first time to Busch Stadium.
Busch Stadium tour – didn’t know we could tour the stadium, but we’re glad we did.
Branson – Sophia’s first road trip/vacation.
hummingbird – just having fun with the camera in my in-laws’ backyard (aren’t y’all tired of lookin’ at baby pictures?)
What’s that? Where’s Sophia’s latest photos? See the next post…
