For this photo shoot with Dr. Paul Redman, Sophia's pose was upside-down, face-down! So for a while, we were only able to see the back of her pretty little head! Then, for about five minutes, both hands were covering her face; you can still see a hand with pointed finger near her eye in the first photo of the series, (careful there, Sophia!). However, with Dr. Paul's skillful handling of his high-tech 3-d ultrasound camera, and a little shifting on mom's part, we were able to sneak a side view of little Sophia's face. For the last two photos in the series, she began to turn towards us for a little clearer view.
As we marvel over these photos, the verse comes to mind, "Now we see through a glass dimly,...but then, we will see face to face!" I Corinthians 13:12. We are eager to greet our new little family member face to face in just 6 1/2 weeks!

Image 2: Sleepy Head
Image 3: Chin up!
Image 4: Maybe I'll turn my head,...(Dr. Paul said the white spots to the left of her nose are actually part of her hand where she has positioned it near that side of her face, so only one of her eyes is actually visible in this photo).
Image 5: Sweet Sophia
Meet Annie Kate's mom, Carol, soon to be known by Sophia as Grammy! We know what you're thinking; she couldn't possibly be old enough to be a grandmother! But it's true! And we are sure she will add music and a love of literature to little Sophia's life, not to mention occassional trips to the zoo.
Now meet Annie Kate's Dad, Mark. He is affectionately known by most as Dr. Miller, but will be known by Sophia as Pop, unless, of course, she comes up with some endearing variation that we can't resist, (we hear children are known to do that)! Mark's hobbies are healthy eating (really!) and Bible study, so we expect that he will be creating a line of gourmet organic baby foods just for Sophia and teaching her whole passages of scripture in one sitting. And...as you can see here, Mark is lots of fun, and we know Sophia will love taking special trips with him to the ice cream parlor, (after finishing her organic peas, ofcourse).
