Trying to walk!

So we went in for Sophie's 1 year checkup! She was 30 inches long and 22 pounds. Oh and her head was 19 inches around! :)

Sophie's been developing more and more each day! We think she's going to take off walking any day now! She loves getting around with this little walker we got!

Pausing to say hi!
A close-up!
Had to show the bow a little bit more! I think it is so cute!
Walking from one end of the living room to the other!

Sophie's Birthday Part II: Pizza, presents and cake :)

These are kind of in reverse order, so I'd suggest going down to the bottom of the previous post actually, and going back up to see how it really progressed!
Sophie turned 1!

She was pretty impressed with what she'd done! Not to mention a mess! (Note she did not eat all of this cake. We salvaged a little of it before it got too bad!)
Messy, messy, messy a few minutes later!
Starting to get it up her nose!
She's thinking, "Forget being sticky, I'm going in for more!"
After the first bite when she realized how sticky her hands were!
First bite!
She didn't quite know what to do with the candle of course, so Daddy blew it out!
Sophie's got her eye on the prize!
A new toy!

Daddy was helping, but Sophie wanted to do it all by herself!

Sophie's Birthday Part 1: Waiting for Daddy to get back with the pizza :)

Here's some of the many faces of Sophie when we were waiting for Jason to get back with Sophie's first pizza for her birthday! These will show how she's into everything!
We went ahead and put the birthday hat on!
Mommy and Sophie (note Sophie's confused face. Ha!)
Sophie's learning how to whistle! It is so funny to watch!
Funny face :)
Walking around the furniture!

This is a little toy that Geri at work gave us to see if Sophie would like to try!


This is a random pic from a different day that I thought was cute!

Happy Valentine's Day

I finally managed to get a barrette into Sophie's hair! (and it stayed in there for the first five minutes of church! Ha!)
Opening up her Valentine's Day card from Grandma and Grandpa Light!

So when Sophie came to the Tribune for a few minutes the other day, Brie took some cute pics of Sophie! Here they are!
