Showering Sofia

On Sunday, my "best" girlfriends threw a very intimate and beautiful shower for Sofia. It was a lovely afternoon and Sofia was a little movie star! She lights up a room when she enters it. The cool crisp mimosas were delicious on this warm September day and the company was perfect. Thank you Michelle and Katie and all our guests for honoring our little birdie and showering her with love.

  10. That is so sweet! You really have an awesome support system around you! I remember being bummed because we barely got not even a gift for Nika when she came home ... I mean, not that we needed it, but really ... it is no different than giving birth! Hope things are going well!!

  17. What a beautiful gathering in honor of Sofia. I have followed your site over the past 2 months. Your family is beautiful. I also have a little girl with DS and now we are in the process of adopting Anastaysia. Just completed all of the homestudy paperwork, so we are in the beginning stages. So thought I would sign in and tell you how precious she is.
