The three of us went to visit Joe’s family in WA and to a party in Portland for our friend Tim’s birthday. What a wonderful trip we had…5 days in the Pacific Northwest. Yes, it rained…every day in fact.

Our little girl went on her first airplane ride. She must be a world traveler at heart. Her entire ride was spent sleeping in my arms. Not a bad flight for me either. *wink*

While we were there, our little one decided to speak…and at great lengths! OK, so she wasn’t sighting poetry or anything but she did cycle through her vowel sounds. This is the age when they find their voice and it’s common for them to coo their vowels…still…we think she’s a genius. Can’t help it…she’s amazing to us in every way.

What a wonderful gift and music to my ears. Above is a pic of her during the precious moment.
