Christmas 2009

Christmas Eve jammies! Is there anything better?

Just the 4 of us!

Christmas Morning. Sophia got a book from Santa.

Benjamin is reading to Sophie. She loves books!

It's Minnie Mouse! Sophia's favorite cartoon is Mickey Mouse Clubhouse right now. She loves all the songs and especially Donald Duck. She got Minnie, Mickey and Pluto for Christmas. We already have Donald. They are some of her favorite toys.

Halloween 2009

Benjamin and Sophia "the cutest baby witch"


Mask on!


Caroline's kids Livvy "the flapper" and Adam "Bond, James Bond". I curled all of Livvy's hair. It looked gorgeous but took forever!


Mommy and Sophia the cutest two witches!


Close up. Sophie didn't get what all the fuss was about.


Now she gets it! Sophia and all of her Trick or Treating spoils.


Her favorite thing was to pick up the candy one by one and put them back into her bucket. So cute!


Funny story about these sour Skittles. Benjamin really wanted to see Sophia do the classic "sour face" so he let her lick the sour sugar off of one and no face. She wanted more! So Benjamin decides that it must not be that sour so he eats one. He finally got his sour face! Too bad it was on him so he couldn't see it!


Sophie candy sorting.


In the bucket it goes!

Sophie and her baby brother

Yesterday we took Sophia in for her 15 month check-up. I can't believe how much she has grown! She walked in and used the "big" scale. She has gained 2 1/2 lbs and grown 3" since her one year check-up 3 months ago. So, she is 20 lbs and 31" tall! She is getting so big! The only other thing that is going on with us is that we all have head colds right now. And that sucks! Also, 2 nights ago Benjamin got to feel our little son move for the first rime! He is very strong and loves to kick! Way different from his sister. She would do a slow stretch and would toss and turn a lot. Sophia has been learning names of her cousins. She started doing it while we were at Caroline's funeral in Austin. Her favorite names to say is her cousin Hannah, "Annah" then Adam, "Ada". It is so cute! She misses them a lot. I showed her a picture of Hannah on the computer and she freaked saying, "Annah, Annah, Annah..." over and over again each time getting a little louder. Now I can pick up her doll and ask her "Who is this?" and she will say "Annah". Very cute!

What has been going on

Sorry everyone. I haven't felt like blogging much lately. Hopefully I will get over morning sickness soon and I can blog some more. But here is the run down of our little family.

Benjamin is doing good. He dyed his hair hot pink for his sister last week. Don't worry we have pictures. Now it is all shaved off. He is really enjoying his classes this semester.

Malynda is starting to feel better. Lately I have been so tired and have no energy to clean the house. So the days I feel good I spend cleaning. :( We have a doctor's appointment at the end of this week so I will try to blog about that. I am really excited to have 2 little baby bugs! Well OK one is more a toddler than a baby, but I am still excited!

Sophia is darling! She started walking on Aug 30th. She dances when ever she hears music. Even when the organ started playing for general conference! She loves to be chased around the house and get into the cupboard where the pots and pans are. She now has 6 teeth. Sophie is starting to get the hang of self feeding, Yay! She has become really attached to the doll that her Papa and Grammy gave her for Christmas. She will kiss her dolly on her forehead all the time. She is going to be an awesome big sister! Sophia has become extremely affectionate lately. It is so sweet to get hugs and kisses from her!

Baby Terry seems to be doing well. I swear I can feel this little one moving already! I am showing faster with this one than I did with Sophia. For those of you who don't know I am now 16 weeks along and due March 22nd. I will try to update as soon as I have more info.

Sitting like a big girl all by herself!

I love this one. Sophia is such a joy!
