Since her first birthday on June 5th, Sophia has
been walking and has totally given up crawling.
She can say a few words like "more" (applies to
anything she happens to be eating at the time); nana (for banana),
ma ma, da da, and la la (for Laura). Even with her limited
vocabulary, she understands everything we say. She has
boundless energy, is busy all day long, always exploring,
touching and (usually) tasting everything in sight.
She is enjoying life immensely, and loves to give kisses
and hugs to her family, and even to Molly (although
Molly doesn't always appreciate it, especially when
she's munching on a dog biscuit).
On the phone booking my flight to Santa Barbara
for our family vacation
Molly helping me remove my bow while
mommy isn't looking
Now I can take some of the pictures for
a change
Taking a nap with my favorite dolly
This TV remote looks like a phone, but doesn't
seem to work like one!
In Santa Barbara with my Aunt Karen, Uncle Rich and
cousin Sara
My big sister Laura enjoying the california sun; what teenager doesn't!
Eating my first plum from a tree
growing in my aunt and uncle's back yard
On Sterns Wharf in Santa Barbara
Sophia's first time at the beach
On my own with my yogurt and spoon
I may have gotten just a bit carried away
With Mom and Michael at the Santa Barbara zoo on
my first train ride
Meeting my cousin Eamon at his home
in Pacific Palisades
Back home in my pool
My sister Laura has crazy ideas at times; she
put all my bows in my hair at once! Mommy
loved it.
