Swimming Lessons





Sophia's last day of swimming lessons was this last Saturday. Mommy got to join in on the fun so I could get some pictures. Hard to believe this little girl cried on the first day.

First time for.....

Using the potty! That is right....Sophia used the potty chair for the first time yesterday! She was playing around with it at first like she usually does. She looked at me and pointed to the toilet meaning I needed to sit on the toilet and then she sat on her potty chair, looked at me and said "poopy" but I could hear she was 'peeing' She stood up, looked at the pee in the potty chair and said 'OH,OH' but I got so excited and praised her. She got a kick out of watching me pour the pee in the toilet and then helped flush the toilet. Pretty sure this isn't going to become the norm as the baby will be coming soon but it is a start. Also a perfect picture for blackmail in the future! ; )

More birthday pictures

Sophia was all about helping Uncle Michael with the balls for his Skeeball game!



Having so much fun riding the Clifford the Dog ride together.

Devin's 8th Birthday






Devin turned 8 years old on Monday. We joined them at Chuck E Cheese for dinner. The kids had a blast. Regan was on this little swing ride that went around and around. As you can tell when I took this picture she wasn't liking it, but as soon as it stopped she wanted to go again. Sophia was watching Regan the whole time. Sophia got on the ride after Regan was done and I guess she thought since Regan had her hands in her mouth that is what she was suppose to do too.

A forgotten favorite

Baby signing time. Sophia used to watch this DVD all the time when she was 6 months to 1 year. I pulled it out the other day just to see what she would think. Well, she loves it again. Every morning at breakfast she signs as well as sings the theme song to it. She asks to watch it every morning. I highly recommend this series to anyone looking for an educational DVD for someone. I think Sophia would recommend it too.

Back Home

Sophia spent the weekend with Josh's parents, while we had a 'Babymoon'. Josh and I enjoyed a wonderful weekend spending time with each other and doing a bit of relaxing before baby #2 arrives. Pictures from Sophia's weekend will be posted later, she sure had a good time and was SPOILED! This is Sophia eating breakfast at home again. It was nice to have a weekend by ourselves and it showed us how much we enjoy Sophia.

Learning something new

Sophia loves to roll the ball back and forth with us. However the other day she realized daddy was sitting with his legs crossed Indian style. Here is her attempt to copy Josh. Almost there!
