Chinese New Years Party

On Sunday we went to a Chinese new years party. Sofia had a lot of fun. We saw some of Sofia's friends. Daddy and Sofia made a panda puppet. Sofia's can say some new words, she can say ma ma, da da and Hi. Sofia also copies Ty's moo. Ty is our Akita. Who does this moo sound. Sofia has taken to it and repeats it after Ty. It is so funny.

Gung Hay Fat Choy/ Happy Chinese New Years

This morning we took photo's of Sofia with her Chinese outfit and the Chinese Flag. I hope everyone enjoys the New Year. It's the year of the Golden Pig.

Kayla and Sofia

Kayla came for the weekend. We went to Gymboree class on sat. Of course I took photo's. Then we went to the Ice Hogs game. I didn't take camera so we have no photo's from the game. And we left early so we don't know who won the game.

Play Date with Allison

Sofia and I went to Amy and Will's house for a play date on Friday. The girls really enjoyed each other. They both have the same coat. Allison would clap and then Sofia would clap. We ate lunch and both the girls did such a good job at the restaurant.

Valentines Day

I took some photo's from Valentines Day of sofia. Her new thing is to give hugs when I ask her to. Sofia loves to Hug Wrigley. Next photo not sofia related. But had to throw it in the blog. It's so cold here that Ty had ice on his lips. I had to get that photo. Can you see Sofia's new Mary-Janes. A girl can never have too many shoes.

Sofia's Doctor Visit

Sofia had her 12m checkup today. She weighed 20.5 pounds and was 28 3/4 inches long. She also got 2 shots. So I thought I should take a photo of her at the doctors. She does not like the Doctor maybe we will get some photo of her and the Doctor when she is a little older. No photo's will be posted.

Sofia's Birthday Party

Thank you everyone for all the gifts. Also a big Thanks to Mom for the food. Sofia loved her noodles. Daddy and mommy decorated the Tiger cake and Grandma did the panda cake.

Sofia took her first steps

I have been trying to get photo's of Sofia with her standing by herself. Today we met with our caseworker. She suggested that we sit facing each other with Sofia in the middle and let her walk to us. (Mom told me the same thing) It worked she took about 4 steps towards Daddy. It won't be long and she will be walking on her own. Sofia also likes to play Peek A Boo. The photo of her by the couch is her playing peek a boo with us.

Game Day

Here are some photo from Sunday. We had the cousins over for a party. Sofia had fun with the boys.

GO BEARS

Adventures of Sofia

Well Sofia learned to climb stairs. Grandma helped with bathtime. Tea time with the twins. (I mean Sippy Cup time)

Baptism

(Update) Sofia and Alyssa had their baptism today at St. Peters in Rockford.

Gymboree

Steve and I took Sofia to Gymboree today. She tried it out for free and liked it so much we are going to take a 6 week class. We are going on Saturday's so Daddy can come along and have fun with us. We took photo's at Gymboree. I also took some photo's of Sofia with her sippy cup. She is getting better with her cup. She only has a few weeks left before she doesn't get the bottle. YEAH

Coke

Grandpa Ed was here today. He let Sofia get into the refrigerator. OK Sofia was just checking it out. Then Grandma had to show her how to get a Coke out. She was hoping Sofia would bring it to her. Aunt Tina bought Sofia her first Valentine PJ's along with a book. The book has card's so Sofia can send out Valentines to all her friends. Enjoy

Sofia and Wrigley

I took some photo's today. Sofia is asleep and Wrigley is keeping her warm. The other photo's are of Sofia in her walker. Daddy was making faces at Sofia. So Sofia made some of her own. Enjoy

Sofia is 11 months today

Today Sofia turned 11 mos. Where has the time went. It's almost been 3 months since we held her for the first time. I took some more photo's today. Like I don't take enough right. I think there might be a day or two that has gone by without taking a photo. (Maybe) Sofia loves to take off her socks. Sammy enjoys playing with them.

Sippy Cup

Sofia is getting used to a sippy cup. She gets her cup at lunch time. We also found her standing in her crib the other day. I just love the photo of her laughing one minute and crying the next. Enjoy
