Sofia's Baptism

September 20, 2009 Sofia Elizabeth was baptised into the Catholic Church at St. Patricks here in Hubbard. Her godparents were our good friends Bob and Kim. She was able to wear the same Baptism gown that Mommy wore some 35 years ago. It just fit. :) She did so well, sleeping through most of the ceremony, though she did jump alittle when the priest put the cold water on her head. No crying though. We had a celebration picnic at our house to follow for family and a few friends. It was a nice day.

Sofia is getting to be such a big baby. Almost 15 lbs and 23 inches long at 11 wks old. She is very alert and does pretty well at holding up her head. She also smiles now. It is the sweetest thing. I have always loved the toothless grin and Sofia is showing her's off all of the time. Such a happy girl.

Nicky's 1st day of preschool

You would think by looking at this picture that the back pack weighs several pounds, when in fact all that is in it is a folder, juice box and snack. The first day of preschool at St. Patricks was more exciting for Mommy than Nicky I think. He was really excited to go until he learned that he would have to go poop and pee on the potty to attend. (This has been an issue for us here at the Kitchokoff house) Once we got to school the excitement returned! He couldn't wait to play with the other little kids. There are 11 total in his class. He is one of 4 boys, the rest are all girls. He has quickly made "buddies" with the boys (robbie, andrew and cole). I am still trying to get all of the girls names. He is not very willing to share any information about what they do at school. I have to drag it out of him, which is surprising since he is usually such a chatter box. One thing is for sure, he loves it. He wakes up in the morning and says "Is it school today?" (He only goes on wed and fri) and is always the last one to leave the playyard when I go to pick him up.
