I WAS KIDDING!

Ok - So I've been keeping a secret. I've always known how to crawl but just wanted to keep mom and dad guessing. Well - On Tuesday I decided to show everyone that I can do it. So call me officially mobile! Here's some video to prove it. The first part is this past weekend where I'm trying to stand by myself. After that its all about me crawling. Enjoy!

We've been a litte busy!

Hi Everyone -
Sorry about the LONG delay in posting - but we've been a little busy with the summer and work. I've been spending my days with Grandma and Grandpa and keeping them busy. Just a few updates since the last time we posted:

1. My 4th tooth as come in - Just call me fangs =)
2. I like to say Kit Kat for Dusty and Gab for Gabby. I love my animals.
3. Still not crawling - but I am pulling myself up and cruising on furniture.
4. Latest trick is letting go and seeing how long I can balance myself!

Mom and dad think I will start walking in no time. They have already set up a little baby jail so I can't get into to many things in the morning and the dog can't topple me over.

Ok - So on to the latest pictures.

Here I am on my 8 month birthday.


I don't really like to sit still for too long


Hey - Gabby No! Stay away from my toys!!


Ok - Maybe I'll share...


I also had my first visit to the zoo! I had so much fun looking at all the kids! Ok and the animals too. This is how I started my day...


Then I got to see the llamas


And play in the sprinklers with momma...


I had fun riding the little train


Family photo - I told you I don't like to sit still anymore


And here I am all dressed up in my new outfit that Aunt Jessica and Aunt JoAnn got me. Aren't I cute!!


I keep telling momma I need my own purse!


Heh - I'm coming to get you daddy!


Oh - There you are!


Ok - Well its time for me to take a nap. I'll see you all soon!

So much excitement!

Well - its been a packed few weeks and I've been keeping the parents busy. So I'll try to recap everything that has transpired.

To start - I've acquire tooth #3! You can start calling me fang =) Also - I've decided that I like to keep momma guessing where she will find me in the morning.


I've also turned 7 months old on June 11. So here are my glider pictures to commemorate the day.




This month was also Father's Day. So here are a few pics at a BBQ at Grandpa's!




I also had fun swinging with Mommy.


And taking a walk with Daddy.


Oh and here's a good picture of my teeth!


Oh - and look at the pretty table cloth.


Now - the following week my other Grandpa came to visit. Here I am waiting for him to show up.


Here I am having fun with my 2 Grandpas =)














And so not to let Gabby feel left out. Here is a picture of Gabby trying to get the peanut butter out of her kong.


And here is our first attempt at video. Gabby didn't really like the scarecrow in Grandpa's garden.

Fun with Daddy

Hi Everyone -
Daddy and I had fun with Mommy's new camera yesterday. Here are just a few of the great pictures he took of me when we got home from Grandma and Grandpa's!

Obviously playing all day wiped me out.


And I wake up to find that I'm outside and daddy is clicking away...


Whats going on?


Who knows ... But don't I look cute...








Are we done yet?

Hello World!!!!!

Look out world - Sophia is on the prowl! I'm getting into anything and everything I can get my hands on.

All of these pictures are long over due - but as you'll see - I've been a very busy girl!

First - I've been spending a lot of time with my best friend Gabby. We love each other VERY much.

I've also been exploring a lot lately. I now like to try things that mommy and daddy use.

Not sure what this is but I see mommy and daddy use it like this all the time.

Mommy gave me something called a sippy cup but I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do with it yet. I like to chew on it for now. I might let mommy take a picture of me trying to use it for the next post.

I also like playing and chewing on things in my exersaucer.

But for the most part it helps me strengthen my legs so that I can try to walk. This is how I tire Grandma out every day.

We also celebrated Grandma's birthday recently. So I got to go out to my first restaurant! It was fun!

I even had my own chair with toys!

But the BIGGEST event this past week was playing in my new kiddie pool! Ok - So day 1 with the pool was spent mostly outside of the pool. I wasn't too sure how I felt about all that water!

I thought about going in...


Gabby thought it was a BIG water dish!


Silly doggie!


But we had fun sitting around and thinking about going in =)


Day 2 at the pool - Had a lot more fun and played splish splash in the pool. Mommy was busy making sure I didn't fall over and daddy was having fun videotaping me. Once daddy figures out how to put the show online I will post it here too!

Ok - I will post more soon. Tomorrow I'm turning 7 months old and I'm sure mommy will take lots of pictures of me holding up a sign with me sitting in the rocking chair again.

See you all soon! *hugs and kisses*
