Swim Suits

So I absolutely love both of these swim suits, however, I can probably only get one of them. So let me know which one you like best! Thanks!

"Bobble Head Babies" and "Strawberry Toe Jam"

More videos of Tanner playing with Sophie. I don't know where he comes up with the stuff that he does, but it's funny, so I just had to show everyone else.

Family and Baby Friends with Sophie

Eli Pelo playing with Sophie. She kept trying to get Sophie to wake up. She would say, "Baby, wake up please." And when Sophie's binki fell out she kept putting it back in for her. She's only two and already acting like a mommy. It was so cute!

Aunt Sally and Sophie

Uncle Ian and Sophie. He loves Sophie so much. Every time he sees her he always asks me if he can hold her. He assures me that he can hold her standing up...which I'm sure he can, but it scares me so I don't let him haha.

Our Tough Little Girl

This may be gross to some of you...but oh well. Even when Sophie throws up its cute to us. Haha. This is actually after the monsterous event :). We just thought her face and mannerism were so cute that we had to capture it on film. It's like you can hear her thinking, "Mommy, Daddy, I threw up a lot and made a big mess. It wasn't fun." She didn't even cry when it happened, she's so tough!

Good News!

I just spoke with my nurses pedietrician and she confirmed the results of Sophie's EEG were normal. YAY! They still recommend we continue with the MRI, however, Tanner and I will have to discuss that. Regardless, if we don't get the MRI, they would like us to take her to Primary Children's hospital and show the video I have of Sophie to a neurologist. I will keep you updated on what happens. Thanks for all the prayers!

Sophie getting her EEG

About two weeks ago Sophie had what we think was a mild "seizure" for lack of a better word. The first time she had one of these "mild seizures" it scared us but after praying we felt reassured that it wasn't serious. We wanted to show her pedietrican just in case there could be a chance that there was something wrong. Fortuantely, I caught the incident on video and showed it to her pedietrican, who suggested Sophie get an EEG (a test for brainwave activity during sleep). Since I have epilepsy in my family, I'm kind of used to these kind of tests because of my little sister Carly, so it wasn't very dramatic or scary. Sophie did really well...she didn't cry or squirm at all when the nurse was putting all of the wires on her head...trust me, there were a lot of wires as you can see in the picture. Our daughter is so tough! The only thing that was sad was when we had to pull the tape off of her head and shoulders...I've never heard her cry so hard in all of her life. It made me sad. Anyway, we will receive the results hopefully tomorrow or the next day. From what I observed in her test, it seemed like her brainwaves were normal, so I'm reassured. Tanner gave her a blessing too and we felt that she is okay, hopefully the results will reassure our feelings. I just wanted to document what happened and ask for your prayers. Thanks!

What seemed like the hundreds of wires that the nurse put on Sophie. She just slept through it, pretty amazing!

After all the wires were put on the nurse wrapped her head in gauze to make sure Sophie didn't pull any of them off. Again, she did exactly what she was supposed to do and slept. It actually took her about two hours to fall asleep but in the end they got what they needed.

Sophie's first basketball game

She slept soundly on the way up to Midway to watch her daddy's basketball game. Don't her lips just look luscious in this picture :).

Sophie and I getting ready to watch the game. I guess she didn't really watch anything since she slept the entire time haha.

Isn't this outfit just adorable? She's just so darn cute!

Again a picture of our peaceful sleeping baby. I can't believe she slept through all the noise...sometimes she would get startled when the buzzer sounded but then she would go right back to sleep.

Second baby shower

Tosha and Brooke threw me a second baby shower today and it was so much fun. Everyone loved seeing Sophie either for the first time or for the second or third. Brooke made amazing food, oh my goodness, she is just fantastic! Sophie got so many good presents. Here's some photos from the shower. Thanks everyone for coming!

Little cousins: Remi and Sophie. I told Remi to smile...she wouldn't, and then I said, "Show me your teeth" and this is what she did. :)

My lifelong family friends, Lisa and Tessa Montrose. I just love them! Lisa has known me since I was a little baby like Sophie.

My family. It's amazing how much we look alike when I have straighter hair.

Friends and family at the shower.

Tosha, Summer, and Arina.

Dinner Party

My friends from high school and their husbands came down to Provo last night for a dinner party. We had so much fun! It was great to see everyone again and of course they loved seeing Sophie. It's amazing how quickly time has flown by since high school. Dinner was awesome! Everyone made such good food, we will definitely have to do it again soon!

Rodger trying to do something to our TV...don't ask me what, it's too complicated. He tried for like 20 mins and it didn't work. Thanks for trying though Rodg!

Cortney, Linds, and Ben. Aren't they so cute!

Tanner, Abbie, Sophie, and Mike. Sophie was so good all night long letting people hold her, she didn't make a peep the entire night, just was content with everyone holding her.

Videos of Sophie

Tanner loves to play with our baby. He's comes up with the funniest things and we just have to get them on video. Enjoy!

Tanner massaging Sophie's cheeks while she's completely out.

We received a package from my Aunt Kim for Sophie last week. All her presents came in this big box with foam peanuts and Tanner thought it would be funny to pretend we were returning the presents with another little addition.

St. George

Sophie and I took our first trip to St. George with my family over the weekend. Sadly, Tanner couldn't come and we missed him, but we had fun nonetheless.

The amazing Greek salad we ate at Scaldoni's (an Italian restuarant) in St. George.


My parents being goofy on our walk. My dad is wearing my little sisters hat, that's why he looks so funny :).

All the girls on our family walk.

Our traditional picture in the big rocking chair in Beaver. Sophie's first picture in the chair, one of many to come I'm sure.

Mommy and Baby

Our family went to our BYU married ward for the first time since Sophie was born today. She got to wear her adorable little dress from baby gap and looked absolutely darling.

Pictures of our precious Sophie

At two weeks old Sophie is learning how to use the computer and how to post on our blog :) She's really concentrating...just look at her little forehead wrinkles.

She already likes to look at herself.

So Tanner was sucking on a lemon drop and decided to let Sophie try some...and she really liked it. She kept sucking on the drop and would lick her lips after Tanner took it away so she could savour the flavor.

Tanner feeding her the lemon drop....bad idea, it made her stomach unhappy later but she seemed to like it for the moment.

Sophie has such a hard life...she works so hard to sleep, eat, and poop :).

She must be dreaming something funny.

She loves to lay with her daddy in the lovesac.

Our little family.

Our little angel sleeping in her pack-n-play.

Hannah made Sophie a little tutu for valentines day pictures, isn't she adorable!

She's Daddy's little girl already.

I just love how peaceful she looks here.

Sophie's first smile (I luckily caught it on camera)...she was only two days old in this picture.

Pictures from Hospital

Sophie safe in her Daddy's big hands. Whenever Tanner holds her like this she calms down because she feels safe and secure...even if she doesn't really look like it in this picture.

Obviously, she wasn't too happy after being "evicted" from her warm home she'd been comfortably living in the past nine months.

The nurses and doctors checking to make sure everything was working properly. I think this picture is why Tanner said Sophie had brown curly hair...but she really doesn't, at least not yet.

Tanner took this picture of Sophie and I about 30 seconds before I woke up. Obviously, we were both exhausted from what had just happened during the wee hours of the night.

Our Little Miracle

Sophia Gloria Hansen was born Jan. 29, 2009 at 2:59 am, weighing 7 lbs 11oz. 19.5 inches long. The doctor had to pull her out with forceps so she was a little bruised and coneheaded when she arrived but still beautiful as ever.
