It's Halloween time!

Here's Sofie trying on her costume! She, of course, is SUPER BABY!

Picture update & Sofie turns 11 months!

Sofia at 11 months!

Just some random pics I've taken in the past couple of weeks. Enjoy :D

More pictures :)

I had some time to get these to you, so here they are! Safe to say that Sofia is a morning person, through and through...she's super happy when she wakes up (most of the time) as you'll see below, but then once 6pm hits, it's all down hill with the crankiness...

Bright-eyed & bushy-tailed!

Good morning, mommy!

Here are some additional pictures I took on her 10-month birthday before going to church...


And, last but not least, here's a photo of her grabbing her favorite stuffed animal, her Pooh Bear.
She's responding to me asking her to find Pooh now, which is great because once she's found him, she pick him up (notice his size?) and walk all over the house with him.

Sofia is 10 months old!

Yes, yesterday, she turned 10 months old...two more months and she will celebrate her 1st year of life....I can hardly believe it.
Here's the pic taken yesterday before church :)

Sofia Enjoying her bath

It's amazing how this child can be the crabbiest, crankiest baby around 7pm...and something happens when she plops into her bath...she's happy! She plays, talks, splashes, just loves the water. Somehow, all the sleepiness, and yucky-ness goes away and she gets a second wind...Before this clip, she was actually BAWLING. BTW, we think we got her to say her first word...it wasn't mama, wasn't papa, not even tete, no.....it's caca.

Here are some pics from tonights bath...

Sofia Takes Her First Steps...Oh.Good.Lord.

So MY DAUGHTER goes with me to visit her dear friends Lucas & Sofia Marie at Claudia's house on Saturday, August 30th. The day goes by rather normally, until the unexpected happens...
She walks by herself.

She literally pulled herself up with no help from any supporting object. And when we got home, I put her on the floor to show Mando and abuela...

It's very strange to see a 9-month-old baby walk by herself. I'm still in shock.

Sofia Turns 9 Months Old!

August 21, 2008

The school year has begun and already life has become more hectic than ever. Sofia has also changed a great deal since my last post. She is teething again, and we're expecting her top teeth to make an appearance soon. She's more animated (if that's even possible), and she's learned some new tricks. She is learning "the Itsy, Bitsy Spider" from me and actually vocalizes while I sing and puts her hand together, almost making the spider movements! She also cracked up for the very fist time yesterday at abuela's silly "a,e,i,o,u" game. She's waving byebye and even signs for her milk :)
