at that time i was 14 weeks pregnant;-) eeek. 7 months later...
Soleile Joline Vining was born on April 2nd 2012, 9bs 11 oz, all natural at home with our loved ones.

She quickly got used to "our" schedule...meaning we tried to adapt to her sleep.

but we soon found it easier to include her in our "old" activities too...

 Going to her first Sounders game, walk to nearby restaurants for coffee or dinner

 our first "trip" to Long Beach for memorial day weekend 2012 (6 weeks old)

this is a catch up mission for blogging... i intend to keep up with our life adventures (hopefully)

lets see how it goes

the trip

Ohrid, Macedonia

it is strange how vacation clears you mind, relaxes your body and makes everything sweet and joyful.

back to life and the real world is harsh in comparison.
