week 20

So, we've got our internet back after a week of no service.  My apologies for missing week 19 but hopefully the fact that I'm posting a video this week will appease those of you (grandmothers!) who were disappointed by the lack of new pics last week.  

The video is my first attempt with the Handycam and I'm totally breathing into the microphone.  Other than that it's a pretty cute (I'm not biased at all) video of Brooke and I waking Sophia up from a nap.  She doesn't do any talking in this but if you listen carefully you'll notice that she does indeed make some audible contributions, one that seems to surprise even her.

john & mary - you guys are definitely experts on cute kids so the fact that you think sophia is adorable proves that she really is. hope the whole vanderveen tribe is doing well.

priscilla - thanks. if you like her alertness so much we should have you come babysit some night and you can get all the alertness you can endure.

mom - i'm a little worried about when she starts talking because i don't think she'll know how to stop. let's definitely skype soon.

cartee - thanks bro. we need to talk soon.

WAY-AY charming. If only, only we could still sleep like a baby and wake up like Sophia!
