so big so fast

today is sophias 11 month birthday i can not believe she will be one next month! the time flew by so fast!

So much to do so little time!

From the time we get up in the morning I am on the go! of course it really all depends on if I have work or not that day. So that is why I have not updated in fooorevveeerrr! Sophia has been growing up sooo fast! She now has four teeth!three on the bottom and one on the top. I see another tooth on the top ready to pop out! Her bottom teeth didn't bother her as much as the top did/do! we actually had to give her baby tylenol! other then her teeth lets see she is the best crawler around town! she can beat out any kid in a crawling race! she walks around the sofa like its her job and is starting to stand like a pro! Her diapers are a big help with the padding when she looses her balance! eatting well thats not a prob! she eats anything and everything! honestly anything! she loves going on her million walks a day and feeding all the duckies and their babies! she makes loud sounds when she sees the doggies walking down the street! I am always comparing them to tori! now that the weather has been sooo hot she tends to only wear her bathing suit! she loves to splash around in the pool. climbing in and out in and out! oh yea and she LOVES crawling on the concrete! i know!! you would think it would hurt but she moves pretty darn fast on it!

Last month was johnny and jennas wedding! it was soo much fun , but the only sad part was that joe had to stay home and watch sophia:-( we didn't have a babysitter... wish he could have been there. the wedding was so pretty! i talked about it for days especially about the cookies and milk and allll those yummy cheese burgers from mc donalds at the end of the recep waititng for all of our drunk butts to leave! Grandmom had the best idea by renting us a limo for the ride up there and back! it was so loud going there but no coming back! well kinda!

last wednesday di and i went up to corinnes to with dom and soph to play with char and liv! it was soooo much fun! i can not wait to play again! i thought it was going to take awhile to get there but it wasn't that bad got stuck in a little traffic but the kids were good in the back seat! liv pushed soph around in her little doll stroller! remindng us that she was her mom and that she was born july 3 and she was 2 but then five min latter she told us she was now 3! dom was such a little boy too cute watching the girls play. he got a boo boo on his eye because they beat him up! nah he missed the step. :-( he got soph back by shutting her inbetween the doors but then soph did it right back to him! Corinnes made us these awesome drinks from the] blender made out of srawberries,cucmber, banana,spinach and kale! it was really good i was shocked i actually couldn't get the straw out of sophia mouth she loved it! I could just go on and on about our day i can not wait to do it again. liv asked if we could come over everyday! i told her we would come back soon and she said okay how about next week!

well, i better get going sophia is taking her morning nap and i want to get somethings done before she wakes up. i have off today so our day is full!

there was one but now there is two!

Sophia had her first tooth pop out friday night and then had her second tooth pop out sunday! She has been really good during the whole process. cranky but not tooo cranky. Especially not like how some people explain teething to me! Thank goodness, but there is still a whole mouth more to come! Other then that she is growing up so much she is crawling around like she is in the olympics and standing on her two feet like nothing! She is a very daring baby! She loves trying new food. She really like broccoli, clam chowder soup both red and white! She loves sharing her toast with me in the morning! Oh yea and she loves when i cut up a bananainto little peices and let her feed her self.
Today joe and I were finshing painting th laundry room and I opened the door to see what she was up to in her walker and she was drinking her juice out of her sippy cup! That was the first time I ever saw her do it for real! I saw her try and do it before but never accoplish getting anything out. It was amazing watching her hold it with both hands and actually drink!

So Easter is coming and we are so siked to giver her;her easter basket. She wll actually be using the eater basket i used growing up.

Ramble Ramble...

I have been meaning to write on the blog now for a couple weeks and after Johnny and Jennas Bridal Shower I was pushed to write more and more often! Here all along I thought I was the only stalker when it came to blogs and facebook pages, but I was wrong! Least now I am not alone when it comes to stalking!!
Last saturday was the shower and I was able to get off of work. It started at eleven so we had to leave around 10ish. Sophie, I, my mom, and my grandmom drove down. I knew there wasn't going to be a prob with Soph because she loves car rides. Sher normally takes hermorning nap anywhere from 9:30-10:30. So around 10:10 she past right out! Grandmom couldn't believe how fast she fell alseep..."I never saw a baby fall alseep that fast!" Once we got down there she then woke up. It was very nice out even though it was chilly and windy, but the sun was out and it was not raining! We made our way in side and once we settled in Jennas arrived. Perfect timing even though it wasn't a surprise least we made it there before her! Aunt Debbie and Diana picked a table back in the corner so that we could have our mess out of the way from everyone else. Good idea because there was ALOT of mess...DOM! While walking around getting things to drink and eat we had to walk by Lori aka Aunt Lori and everytime she would stop us and say somethingto Sophia. Each time Sophie would just give her a blank stare. There were alot of people there so Soph had to get situated. We all got our food and sat back down I held Sophia in my lap while I tried to eat then I noticed a little hand going into my plate! She grabbed a hang full of coleslaw and shoved it into her mouth! It was so cute watching her eat it. She went back for seconds! I then started giving her other things to try. She liked everything just like all of us.Once Jenna started opening up her gifts diana and I moved our seats more into the corner so that we could have soph and dom play together. Jenna gave them wrapping paper which was a great idea because they loved it. Dom was crawling under the table and of course sophia had to follow. After the opening of the gifts we all got up and started chatting with one another. Sophia and I walked by lori again but this time while we were chatting Sophia grabbed on to her arm and wanted her to hold her. it was adorable watching her do that! Lori... I know your ready this! You are sooo funny! I am still laughing over what you were saying! And yes, I will try to write more and more often! The shower was coming to an end and we said our good byes and then we drove over to Bennys to see how everything was. I walked out on the peir with Sophia she couldn't stop staring at the water. Our drive home was good sophia took her afternoon nap and I took mine as well! I had such a nice shower and what made it even nicer was being down the shore.

I get it all to myself!

now that Sophia is getting older were trying different foods with her ya know human food lol not babyfood! she loves the whole fruit strawberry frozen bars and evertime either joe or i are eatting one she sits there and tugs at our clothes and opens her mouthand shuts it over and over again making a mmmmm sound. well, she just went down for nap and the bright idea popped in my head... yes, i can have a frozen fruit bar all to myself! now that im sitting here enjoying it i wish she was here with me sharing it!
there are many other things she enjoys like pizza crust (sucking on it!) french fries,pickles,sherbert,water icem and are you ready for this one.....clam juice! last night at my parents we were in the kitchen slurping down some great clams on a half shell and i had Sophia sitting on the counter and she was staring at us so i gave her a clam shell and in the mouth it went! she loved it so then i put some clam juice in the shell and she didnt even make a face! like my mom always says "the apple doesn't fall far from the tree!" ain't that the truth! my parents always told me of when my brother and i were growing up around Sophias age thats how they started us to like seafood, especially clams! They used to have to wait for us to go to bed so that they could have the clams to themselves much like me and the frozen bars now with sophia! well, let me go see what else i can enjoy before the crawler gets up!

watch out here comes sophia!

Sophia started crawling tonight!!! I am soo happy! especially since I was there to see it! I knew it was going to be happening soon, but unsure when! We were over my parents tonight and she has been sticking her little booty up in the air on her tippy toes not going anywhere. and then it just happened!! i was in shock! it started with one leg then another she would go a short distance and then stop and lay down on her tummy but now that we are home she is going across the room! i can not wait for tomorrow! watch out here comes sophia!

This is my Fav. Picture

Sophia was looking up at my dad when this pucture was taken. My mom made me a 8 by 10 and put it in a frame. I just hung it up last night and I cant stop staring at it! Everytime Sophia sees it she smiles!
