MA MA MA MA MA

Hi Everyone - Since the last time we've posted I've turned 6 months old and I'm starting to babble a lot more now. My favorite phrase is MA MA MA MA MA, followed by BA BA BA BA along with a few other sounds that come out. Still trying to figure out how to get out DA DA DA DA but I'm not quite there yet.

Anyway - On with the show. Here are a few pictures of me on Mother's Day in my pretty dress. I also turned 6 months old on Mother's Day too!


And here is Gabby taking a look at my dress


Now here I am with my hat - you can never forget about your hat!




Oh - And did I mention that I like to practice how to stand. Here is the first picture - but its hard for mommy to keep her hand on me and get a full body shot. So we will have to get daddy to take one soon!


Here I am swinging away. I like to sit up in it now unless I'm sleeping =)


WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE


And here is a picture of me and mommy and grandma.

Look out world - I've got TEETH!

Hi Everyone -
Sorry for the delay in posting the latest happenings. Things have been a little rough for mom and dad lately. Between me getting my first tooth last Tuesday, with the second shortly to follow last Thursday, I haven't been letting mom and dad sleep too much this past week. Oh - and lets not forget my tummy troubles too!

Anyway - As I promised here is a picture of me riding a pony! Oops I mean Tank!


And here is me giving mom and dad a clue that my first tooth is coming in a few days


I've also been learning a few new tricks since the last time we posted. I can now roll over from my tummy to my back. However, since I hate being on my tummy I chose not to roll over onto my tummy. Instead I just like to roll from side to side, grabbing and sucking my feet.


I've also been really interested in hats - I must get it from my mommy. Anyway - Here I am stealing my daddy's hat =)


And wearing the hat


Yea - I'm styling!

Look at all the BIG Doggies!

Hi Everybody -
Another week has flown by and I thought I would share some of the latest excitement. Daddy was travelling for work this week so I just hung around with the cat.



I miss daddy when he's a away for so long.


Well - On Friday I went with Mommy and my Aunt Jessica to play with Gabby's Friends.


This is Gabby's boyfriend! His name is Tank, the english mastiff!


He's REALLY BIG but REALLY sweet too. When's Tanks mommy sends the picture of me riding him I'll put it up to show everyone =)


It was fun to see Gabby and all of the other doggies - Just when I thought Gabby was a big doggie ... turns out she's not so big!


See everyone next week!

Lots of Fun New Things at 5 Months Old!

Ok Everybody - With this post we are officially caught up!!! Lots of fun new things to experience and share with you all!

Now here I am... turning 5 months old... can you believe how fast I'm growing!


And yet... Look how cute I am!


But man... Its a lot of work being cute!


Now to share some new experiences. Last week I started to try something other than formula. Oatmeal! Not so bad... Daddy will have to post some pictures of my first meal! However, this week mommy thought it would be nice to try something new. SWEET POTATOES!


I'm not sure about this....


Yea... I'm positively, absolutely, undoubtly certain.... Sweet Potatoes are not sweet and I don't like them!


Now - For some happier times.

Mommy thought it would be a good idea to show some of my latest favorite things to do. Here is one of me playing with my feet. I also like to suck on them but Mommy isn't quick enough to catch it on film yet!


I also like to visit grandma and grandpa. I see them every day and today I went over to show off my new hat.


Have I mentioned I really like my new hat?


Ok - Time for me to take a nap. See you all soon!

Sophia at 4 months

Hi Everybody - My mom was crafty and figured out how to get my pictures off her camera. So time to catch everyone up on what I've been up to.


Here I am on my 4 month birthday. Mom insists I hold onto these signs - but I would rather crumple them up!


I really like to read my books - although lately I've either wanted to eat them or kick them.... guess which one I'm in the mood to do now!


Here's another good picture of me smiling =)


This is usually how I start my mornings - watching mommy and daddy getting ready for work.


Now... which toy should I chew on... I mean play with!


In other fun.... I'm starting to really enjoy my exer-saucer. THANKS AUNT STACEY!

They will come...

I know everyone is chomping at the bit for the latest in Sophia updates. We promise that they will be more frequent and current on the weeks happenings.
Right now Months 4 and on are stuck on the camera and waiting to be posted.
In the meantime, today Sophia turns 5 months old. She has just had a growth spurt and is now 16lbs and just over 25 inches long. And if you think her cheeks were delicious before... just wait and see her now!
At this point she loves trying to sit up and play with her feet. Although, she topples over quite easily. She's also a champ at tummy time and depending on how her arms are she can roll over on her back.
Gabby is starting to realize that Sophia is a person and has on numerous occassions tried to get Sophia to play catch. Kel recently found Gabby placing the ball into Sophia's lap in the swing. Soon girls soon!
Well - I think this was a good start for the Nelson Blog. Stay tuned for pictures of Sophia and her first spoon fed meal and the latest on her favorite things!

3 Months Old & Christened

Well Everyone - At this point things start to get a little slow with the pictures. I'm back at work and Sophia spends her days with Grandma and Grandpa.

Sophia's Christening on February 10, 2008.
