Living life one day at a time as a family of six...3 busy and bouncy boys and 1 Ukrainian princess. Our third son Joaquin was our unexpected blessing who came to us with a little something extra called Down syndrome and inspired us to adopt Sofia an orphan we fell in love with through Reece's Rainbow. We hope that our story will help open people's eyes to the beauty and gift that ALL children are. We are all more alike than different!

Trick or Treat?
Sofia's first Halloween was celebrated all day long with a baby Halloween party in the morning and hanging out with Nana and Grandpa Halloween night while her big brothers went trick or treating in the neighborhood!
Lots more pictures to come soon! There was a professional photographer (and dear friend) at our baby party so I'll be sure to share those when we get them. Can't wait!
Sofia was a super diva...complete with outfit changes! She was a bee and a ladybug...couldn't waste those adorable costumes.
For a post on our evening activities complete with pictures, go to Joaquin's blog here!

She's adorable. I bet she had a blast! Joaquin was no slacker in the bee dept. either. Too cute!

Every time I come here, that baby gets cuter and cuter- even if it's just a side shot! I love how long her hair is getting:)
ReplyDeleteYeah, I was hoping to see more pictures of the "bee hive" at the Sanchez home!! She is growing so fast, getting so big, and blossoming into a beautiful butterfly:)
ReplyDeleteThat is the most precious picture! Can't wait to see more. Thanks for sharing Sofia with us! (:

Darling! She and Nicolas were both bees. That would've made for a funny photo :-)
ReplyDeletei loved the pictures of the kids trick or treating on your other blog - can't wait to see the professional pictures from the party!!! sofia looks ADORABLE as a bee and a ladybug :)
ReplyDeleteShe's so precious! LOVE the costumes! She is every bit the star! Speaking of star... the calendar is up on the RR blog www.blog.reecesrainbow.org if you'd like to see it! If you want, I'll send you her page (though she is on the back cover too... )
ReplyDeleteActually, the post that the calendar download is on (information to come on how to get them already printed, but the self print download is up) is http://bit.ly/RRPromo (the calendar preview is up there quite large).
Thank you, again, for letting me use that photo of Hector and her! It is SO powerful. Couldn't have found a better way to bring home the point on the calendar!
Blessings,

She's beautiful, and I love your glowing smile and you look at your daughter.

Hello, I am working on a montage of children who are adopted from RR, I was curious as to if I could use a picture of your sweet girl?
