Another update

I was looking at the pictures and thought I would post some more cute ones. My Mom made this outfit for Sofie, She gave it to Sofie for Her first Christmas and it seemed so big that we thought it would be a while before she could wear it. Well we checked it the other day and it fits. We didn't think it would be this soon. We sure didn't realize she would grow this fast.
















We thought this picture was funny.

Gateway Discovery Museum

We bought a pass to the Discovery Museum today. I told myself that if we could be ready by 9:30 this morning we would go, we made it and had fun. There were a lot of kids there for a field trip and Sofie was one of the smaller ones. It drives me crazy when these kids don't look out for smaller kids, I told a couple of them to get off the toys that were way too small for them. Other than that Sofie loved the plastic cars that you peddle with your feet. She could only go backwards so I backed her into the wall and she didn't move but had fun in the car. At one point I took her out to go do something else and someone starting playing with the car, Sofie had a fit. She was really crying but then She was distracted by something else. On the car ride home she was so close to falling asleep so we sang songs to keep her awake so she would sleep in her crib. Well instead of sleeping right now she is in her crib running back and forth and screeching quite loudly. I guess that wasn't the best plan. I remembered half way there that I had forgotten my camera so no pictures. Next time we go we will take some. (I don't hear anything from her room maybe she finally fell asleep, I have to go check)

Random pictures

Here are some new pictures of Sofie, she is growing up so fast. This last weekend we bought her a "big girl potty" and we ordered her a dresser and bookcase for her grown up room. We aren't really ready to put her in another room but we thought they were cute and pretty good price so we will have them when we need them. She will have white furniture and we will paint the room light purple. She has learned so much lately she talks on the phone with her Grandparents and Aunts and actually talks to them.
Nathan was playing dress up with Sofie with things from her closet, he would put something new on her and she would come out and show me. This was the first picture I took.And this was the last picture I took of her. I think she made close to 20 trips. I don't know if you can see it or not but that is a diaper on top of her head. (clean of course)
This is Lucy the Cox's foster hopefully soon adopted Daughter. Sofie did very well holding her. Of course I was right there and let go of her for maybe 5 seconds.
And then this is what happens when you take the baby from her. She thinks this baby is great she always wants to put her binky in and hold her.
Like her cool shades?

What happened?

After not being able to post for a while due to technical difficulties that weren't really difficulties at all, Nathan fixed the computer so now I can post pictures of the munchkin. We have had quite a few cute ones in the last couple of weeks. Now I have to find them and get them on here.

the day before these pictures were taken I went to the store in sandles. Less than 24 hours later we were covered. Nathan had to get up early to shovel out of the driveway to get to work. Sofie and I went out to take pictures and she thought it was great.

Mom and Dad these pants should look familiar. Rolled up and everything. They finally fit around her waist.

I've been tagged

I had a hard time coming up with 7 interesting things about me, so if they are not that interesting just pretend like they are.

1. I graduated High School 3 months early.

2. After years of hating onions I now love them. Especially sauteed on chicken tacos, add chipotle hot sauce and you have one great meal.

3. I will not eat seafood. The thought makes me want to gag.

4. I have a degree in accounting from LDS Business college.

5. I hate math (my husband loves it, good thing for our kids)

6. I was president of Institute Women's Association in college. ( kind of like a sorority)

7. I worked in a pork processing plant doing payroll for somewhere around 300 employees. (and I don't miss it)

I tag Andrea, Marli, Christel, Riki, and Jeanie. I don't know if half of these women read my blog. If you do and you have already done this just count that.

A new look for the blog

As you can hopefully see I have changed the look of the blog. I was looking for something new and different, sometimes you just need that. Well in the process of change I lost just about everything (not like there was much to begin with). So I am slowly but surely getting everything back in order, not an easy task with an eighteen month old running around. As you can see by the number of posts in January the blog is not my top priority, but I will try and be better. So here are some pictures that have been taken over the last couple of weeks.Auntie Em's visit.
A cute dress from Aunt Lanita and Uncle Shawn.
Messing around with Mom and Dad.

Mom: How old are you?
Sofie: (see picture) followed by lots of applause

Sofie

Here are some pictures of the little monkey. She is so funny and getting so big. Auntie Em just arrived today and both her and Sofie are sleeping. Emily left the house at 4:45 this morning and was exhausted.
Some new boots from the local second hand store. They are size 7 so they don't really fit.
One morning I was cleaning in her room and heard some noises in the kitchen I walked out to find her sitting on the chair drinking from my glass that she had to stand up on the chair to get. Then obviously she thinks she is cute (well maybe she is).
This is a Mary costume my mom made her to act out the Christmas Story. I think it might fit for a couple of years.

Last Friday we went for a walk in the morning. These pictures are from when we got home. She stayed like this the whole time. She had so many layers on, when we got home and took them all off she was roasting.
