Random, Part 2

Sophie loves to watch the fan spin.
Pancakes are so yummy!!
We had a playdate at our house with a friend and Sophie took his ball away and refused to give it back. They had fun anyway. I was surprised Sophie let him play with her toys.

June 2011

A very tired little girl.
That's not a 5 o'clock shadow... it's remnants of black beans & rice.
Helping Daddy play the guitar.

Sophie has been sleeping great lately (knock on wood). She is on a 2 nap a day schedule, the first of which is right when our playgroup meets so we haven't been able to go for a month. We've also had to stay inside because of the smoke from all the wildfires. So that means we are both a little lonely. Sophie is slowly adding more words to her vocabulary. She is saying "up," "down," "mom," and "owl." However, she says them infrequently and refuses to speak when we ask her to. We know she understands us because we can ask her to point objects out to us and she will most of the time. We sing her a song that involves opening and closing our hands and she will open and close her hands with us if she is in the mood. Sophie only does things on her terms.

"What... I'm trying to read here."

Now that Sophie has mastered walking and running she is now into EVERYTHING!
Sophie has become quite the little comedian lately. She loves making and viewing silly faces.
Snugglebug.




Sophie recently became interested in climbing. All our furniture is too tall for her to climb onto herself but she loves playing on the beds and couch.

Sophie & Ty

Sophie has been trying very hard to say "cat" but it comes out like "ack." She gets very excited when she notices Ty so it might be awhile until she can focus on getting the word out correctly.



Sophie loves to snuggle! She's a little sweetheart.

Cutie Patootie

Sophie likes to destroy my closet. She enjoys pulling my shoes out of their cubbies and pulling clothes off the hangers. Sophie can't stand when towels are hanging on racks. She will pull them off and drop them on the floor. Sometimes she'll grab both ends and can't pull the towel down, which results in her growling at the towel. Sophie is not a "roll with the punches" kind of girl.
Happily eating Cherrios out of her bowl. Sophie isn't interested in using a spoon yet but she does really well using her hands to eat. I put a little milk in the bowl and she actually doesn't make too much of a mess (just on her face as you can see).
Seriously cute.
Sophie just recently decided it is fun to lie on the ground, bed, or couch and play. Don't be mistaken, even though she is lying down Sophie is still quite active and will roll around or kick her feet wildly.
