Learning how to play on the iPad from U. Joel
Hi Jete!
Mme. Lulu was so excited to see Soph!
I'm cool like "uncle" Christophe! (In uncle Brett's sunglasses)
We'd find Joel like this...just playing with her or "reading" to her!
You're so funny U. Derek!
It's hot in Haiti...sometimes you just need a siesta with Grandpa!
(LOVE this picture!)
I think he's a baby whisperer....
Dan did a first aid refresher class while we were there...Mark made a willing volunteer!
Brent is also an EMT...(More on the fellow later! :) )
Mme. Lulu!
Jidel LOVED Sophie...as soon as he saw her he tried to hold her..
Out of order....but Sophie did pretty good on the planes...only a few wailing episodes....I now have more compassion and understanding for other parents with kids on the plane!
She did best in my dad's plane!
Snuggles :)
Testing out the tent for Pic Makaya....in the living room!
One morning we woke up Joel with Sophie beside him...
Dad, Alisha, Dan, Brent and Rob Thompson went on a two day trip to Pic Makaya...the highest peak in the southern part of Haiti. Here are some pics of their adventure!
Geological marker! They made it!
They said it was so beautiful! (and intense in some parts!)
