Coming Home

Luckily everything went smoothly and we were able to come home Monday afternoon. Here's Ofelia chillin with Pooh and Piglet on the way home.

Big Sister Sofi couldn't have been happier to see that we were all home.

She wanted to make sure all of her sisters things were in working order and tested them thoroughly.

Car seat... check.

Ofelia Meets the Family

Finally off the oxygen, Ofelia was able to meet lots of family.



Mama.

Papa



Grandma Sandy

A Medina is Born

Here we are at about 7 in the morning getting ready for the big event. Going to the hostpital that morning was one of the strangest events in my life.

Mike seems in good spirits. All the poking and family history questions haven't phased him at all. And check out the new paper made 'fit!

First moments of life. Ofelia ended up needing about 8 hours of oxygen. It was a little scary, but we were assured that it was normal for c-section babies. The down side was that we didn't get to hold her until that evening.

A New Baby for Me and You: Ofelia Bleu

On Friday at the ungodly hour of 5am we went to the hospital to pick up the newest member of Team Unstoppable. Say hello to Ofelia Bleu Medina.
This is our most recent family picture. Look at how proud big sister Sofi looks.
Sofi holds Ofelia for the first time. Check out the new hat from D-stay away from daughters-Train. Thanks D!
More love from sister Sofi... hey, that'll be her convent name in a few years!
So far all is well. We appreciate all the visitors we've had. Thank you guys for making Sofi feel so special. Hopefully we'll be home Monday. Mike says he's running low on his push gift beer.

Bear Feet


One night after bath time Mike found my Winnie the Pooh slipper socks. Yes, they're mine. He thought Sofi might enjoy wearing them around the house since she recognizes Pooh's face. I think she likes them.

Trick or Treat!

We took Sofi trick-or-treating on Halloween with her friend Jack Jack. After about the 3rd house Sofi couldn't have been more excited about what was happening. All she had to do was stand at a porch and someone was giving her candy!!! Our little bully even tried her hand at bag snatching! Unfortunately, the six year old she tried to rob was on to her plan.

You killed it!

Last night we carved a pumpkin with Sofi for the first time. This is a pic of Mike and Sofi practicing their war cries.

Sofi exploring the inside of the pumkin. Carving actually kept her attention for a while!

Mama had to take over when she learned that Papa has carved very few pumpkins in his life. He claims to have kicked in more than he ever carved. A soccer skill he says that Sofi will pick up in good time.

Proud of the finished product.
