Sophia is sitting!

All of these pictures were taken in Feb/March 2009. Here is a picture of our happy little princess.

Sitting like a big girl all by herself!

I love this one. Sophia is such a joy!

Here are some pictures of Sophia in one of her favorite toys. These pictures are from Feb/March 2009. Enjoy!

Blogging Catch-up!!!

Alright everyone, I know it has been forever since I have posted anything on our blog. We have just been so busy but I promise to post a lot over the next couple of days. We are all doing well. Sophie is mobile now, has started talking and has a tooth with more on the way! Benjamin is taking classes over the summer. And I am just trying to keep us all afloat. Stay tuned... More posts on the way!!!

My Growing Baby

I was just remembering that when Sophie was born she weighed 6 lbs and 8 oz and was 20 " long. Today Benjamin and I decided to weigh and measure Sophia. So here are her stats. She is about 26 1/2 " long and weighs a little over 16 lbs. This is just our measurements. She will have another doctors appointment in May when she turns 9 months old. I can't believe how much she has grown! I will try to post some more recent pictures of her soon.

Sophia's 6 month check-up

I can't believe that my Sophie is 6 months old! Crazy! Anyways, here are her current stats from her Doctor's appointment last week.

Weight: 13 lbs - 10th %tile
Length: 25 1/2" - 25th %tile
Head Circumference: 16 1/2"

She didn't grow a lot from her 4 mo check-up because she got sick a month ago and lost a couple pounds. But she is better now and is finally getting her appetite back!

I almost forgot her baby food likes and dislikes. Sophia still loves Rice cereal. She is not a big fan of applesauce. She loves pears though. I think she likes the gritty texture. She loves the butternut squash too! Next up are carrots and peaches.

Sophia's First Food!!!

A few days after Sophie turned 5 months old we gave her Rice Cereal for the first time. She did better than I thought she would with it. Here are some pictures we took. There are some really cute ones!

Close up of Sophie.

She looks so small in her high chair!

This one is one of our favorites of her. When we give her food we have to take the tray off because it gets in the way!

"Mommy, what did you put in my mouth?"

"I don't know about this."

She likes it! She likes it!

This is one of my favorites.

Sophie started to get really funny at this point. She kept laughing and squealing. She couldn't get enough of the cereal and sitting in the high chair.

Sophie is keeping a close eye on the spoon. "Keep it coming Mommy!"

Mouth full of cereal shot.

Sophie starting to get full.

Last bite. What a good girl!

Like Father, like Daughter

Benjamin really enjoys playing video games. Every time he plays and Sophie is around she is so captivated by what is going on. Benjamin thought it would be cute to put her in the recliner with a remote. I have to agree. She is super cute!

In these pictures she was smiling up a storm but she kept moving making a good picture hard to get.
