What an adventurous week we’ve had! Ada and Mama are reporting from Ft. Benning, Georgia, where we’ve been for a week to welcome the newest Larsen baby, Will and Jess’ daughter Sophie Marie. Sophie was born on Thursday, the day after we arrived. We’ve had a wonderful time getting to know Sophie and watching her grow in her first week. And in between ogling her baby cousin, Ada has had hours of playtime with Grandma Barb at the many nearby playgrounds, with the dogs Lola and Max, and generally enjoying the much-warmer weather than they’re having at home.
The airlines don’t give out much these days, but apparently a baby can still get her wings.

Here she is! Snug as a bug.
Ada meeting and applauding her beautiful baby cousin.
“Come home and play with me and the dogs, Sophie!”
Here she comes…

Sleepy smiles. Does it get any sweeter than this face?
Snuggling with Daddy. She’s got the Larsen butt-chin. 😉
Sophie’s first outing at 6 days. We all went to the commissary for diapers and supplies.
Uncle Will got a baby motorcycle before Ada came. It plays music and runs up and down the driveway. Ada hereby requests a motorcycle at home upon her return to New Jersey.
“I see you, Lola!”
A baby needs some shades here!
At first she wasn’t so sure about the feel of grass under her shoes, but she’s got it sorted now.

The base is very pretty, no? Mature-tree lined streets, pretty houses with nice lawns, playgrounds.
Pooped!
