I did it!!

We needed a new pillow for Sofie, so we went to walmart. (which by the way we just have to pull into the parking lot and she starts saying "sticker" "sticker" pretty sad huh.) We got her a small pillow so I decided to make her a pillow case for it. You would think with how well people in both our families sew that I would know how. Well I can get by with the basics and that is it. We went to the fabric section which is rather small and Sofie saw a lady with frog material all I heard for the next five minutes was "frog". So we found another material that was more girl colors and some other material that matched for the pillow case. Today during her nap I decided that I would break out my sewing machine and just do it. Well I did it! Just don't ask to see it up close becasue I wont show you, It is a pretty sad looking little blanket. Luckily all Sofie cares about are the frogs. We taught her what a frog says the other day and now she loves to say Ribbit. She is too cute.

Sofie's Toys

Peggy gave these stuffed animals to us for the baby shower before Sofie was born. Sofie loves them, The dog has been a favorite and the other day we needed to wash him so we gave her the duck. I think I need to find a replacement just in case something happens to them.She sure is a girl she loves the dolls and purses, shoes and cell phones, but she also loves planes and cars and playing with the boys. She can sure hold her own with them.

It's Spring!!

The other day Sofie and I went outside and took some pictures by our daffodils. It was a pretty nice day out. Then the next couple of days turned out to be cold, rainy and snowy. Big Bummer. Oh well this weekend should be nice.
Sofie tracking down the neighbor John. He left without asking her, Big mistake.

Last year at the same time, what a difference a year makes.

Me and George

Sofie got a Curious George doll the other day at Target. And Nathan received balloons for his birthday from his boss that had these eyes on it. Sofie felt the need to pull the eyes of the balloon and attach them to George.Then Nathan felt the need to attach them to Sofie.


Sofie felt the same way.
And one more picture of pigtails. I wish she would keep them in longer than 3 seconds.
