Sophia is Two

On August 15th our beautiful, tenacious, and spirited little girl turned two. She brings such joy and laughter to our hearts and homes every day. Each morning she walks into our room bright eyed and bushy tailed announcing "all done night night"! She smothers us all with kisses and snuggles and then asks "Is oatmeal ready?". She loves to help take care of Claire, do dishes, cook, dance, sing, and play with her little toy animals! She often says "Mommy, hold you" when she wants me to pick her up and snuggle. (I love it!) She has only one speed....fast...fast...fast. When her pediatrician asked to see her walk she slowed down to a jog! She is a petite little thing in the 25th percentile for height and weight (25 lbs, 33 in).

We had so much fun at her under the sea b-day party! She LOVED her CUPCAKES! She threw a fit because she had to wait to eat her cupcake. After she settled down we had hot dogs, chips, dips, and watermelon. The kids then played outside in the pool and beach ball sprinkler. Everyone had so much fun. Sophia opened so many wonderful gifts: books, clothes, movies, a princess suitcase, puppets, rockin shoes, dress up clothes, her new favorite bear "ooooh" who sings CREEPY songs when you push his tummy (our favorite new toy too, thanks Lee lee), and of course her new tricycle!!!!!! We loved seeing all of our grandparents, parents, aunts, uncles, and cousins. We missed a few of our friends this year, but hope to see them next time!

Sophia you are very loved!

Playtime is the Best!

Sophia and Claire LOOOOOOVE to PLAY!

Train Ride

Jerad has the week off and we are having fun!!! Today we went on the mini train ride at Trinity Park! Sophia was soooooooo excited to see the choo choo! She also loved chasing the birds. She fell down and scraped her knee but was a trooper! She got right back up and was chasing birds again! Claire bear slept on the train, until it started raining! It was a cool and beautiful day. We met my dad for lunch at Pot Belly's and then went shopping! Momma got some new clothes!!!!

I loved the way Sophia smiled when she saw the choo choo! She is a precious gem!

A Streaker and a Leaker

Wow! Being a mother of two is A LOT of work! Sophia is a very very (did I say very?) energetic two year old, full of personality and spunk! The other day I caught her naked on her potty putting on my deoderant! What a silly gal! She also likes to take off her clothes in less than 30 seconds and hide them! So random! Potty training is on her terms and may take a while! She knows what she wants and peeing in the potty is not her thing right now. I am so learning patience!


Claire had her two month check up and was given a clean bill of health. She is 13 lbs and 23 7/8 inches! She is in the 95th for wieight and heighth and 80th for head! She is growing perfectly. She is an angel baby and so happy all the time. When she gets fussy it means it is time for a nap! After her shots is the grumpiest she's ever been (poor baby). She is now on reflux medicine and hopefully this will help her not to spit up mid nap! She is eating every 2 1/2 to three hours and takes several naps during the day. She is smiling, cooing, and ROLLING OVER! Yes at two months old she is rolling over from back to belly.

The STREAKER

While at her two month check up... I was holding little bear talking to the doc when I turn around to find Sophia completely undressed! She got naked so fast...it was shocking! I had to bribe her with a sucker to get her clothes back on!

Life is crazy, but sooooooo FUNNY!
