Dressing to impress

Sophia goofing around in my socks and shoes. She definately has her own sense of style.

We took Sophia to the Newport Aquarium. She really enjoy it. A hint to all those bloggers out there.... NO STROLLERS ALLOWED. This made for a long day. But we all had a great time anyway. She loves learning.

Sophia's Birthday Party

Sophia had a great birthday party. She had people from Kentucky, Indiana, Texas, and Washington state all here for her birthday celebration. She is a very lucky girl.

The theme was Tigger and Pooh and I continued my tradition of making her birthday cake. It turned out pretty good. It was a little more difficult than last year. It looked even better before she decided to take a taste of Pooh's foot!

We got a tray of heavenly ham and turkey but I think her favorite was the cheese. I think she had about 4 pieces. And then of course was the chocolate fountain. She was a huge fan of that.

She had fun opening all her presents. She is so funny with wrapping paper. Even if she just tears off a small piece, she has to hand it to someone or throw it away before she will continue unwrapping. Needless to say, it makes for a very long process.

Mom found her this adorable dress for her birthday. I thought she looked adorable. She is modeling the new shoes Aunt Juju got for her and sitting in her new rocking chair from Meme.

Thanks to everyone for coming! Sophia had a really great time.

Sophia's 2nd Birthday

For Sophia's 2nd birthday, we just had a low key day together. We met Daddy for lunch and just hung around the house and played. After Daddy got home, we gave Sophia her big present. She was so excited. She loves to bounce like a Tigger. Then we went over to Mimi and Pardie's for some cake. She had a great time.

One happy, bouncing, birthday girl

She loved drinking milk from a big girl cup. The second picture is of her saying, "Aaaahhhh" after she swallowed her milk.

First Movie

Today we took Sophia to see her first movie. She did all right but was more interested in climbing in and out of the chair than watching the movie. We had a good time anyway and she really loved sharing popcorn with her daddy.

Excited looking around and talking about the big TV and all the chairs.
