Mount Hood with all the Grandparents





Grandma and Grandpa Shopp came from the land of the Hoosiers (Indiana) to see how much I've grown and to play with me. I look alot like my Grandpa George don't you think? I'm really enjoying communicating and am fluent in sign language. So far I can say and sign "more", "all done", "hot", "food", "water", "please"and "thank you" and "ciao". The first couple of days I was Grandpa's shadow and followed him almost everywhere. I like to play peeka-bo in Guarani with my Abuela who says "coreako....WA" to me. I've recently learned how much fun it is to turn the lights on and off repeatedly....cool huh? As of today, January 20th I am officially a year and a half old! Mama and Papa are really happy that I'm now sleeping solidly from 8pm till 7am without waking up (or waking them up). Sleep is a wonderful thing!...that was my Christmas present to them this year. To see a video of me asking for more look at my Aunt Becca's blog site http://antisojourner.blogspot.com/

Ok, love the one with Mom and Dad and Phoenix's face. What a fun photo and it makes me think that he did have such a joy with his grandpa! He looks a lot like Dad too! Hugs
