And the Oscar goes to...

Our "baby" is officially a toddler!

As of Monday morning, Sophia will officially be in the toddler room at her center. It was only 12 short months ago that she was a 4-month-old baby and I had to drive to the center every 2.5 hours to feed her. I honestly cannot believe how quickly the past year as gone.

She's running all over the place now. And is turning into quite the monkey -- always trying to climb up on everything. I had to take her Anywhere Chair away yesterday, because she kept standing on it and I was afraid she would fall. I carried it into the dining room and she said. "Che. Ah-gone." Yes, Sophia, the chair is all gone :-)

Which leads me to her other big advancement: her vocabulary. The kid is talking up a storm! Just to get it documented, I'm going to try to list all of her words here. Warning: This could be long and boring!

hi
bye/buh-bye
no
all done
milk
all gone
uh-oh
baby
Nelly
ball
chair
up
tree
cheese
blanket (she says bank)
more
juice
shoe
Dora
Mickey
Elmo (she calls him Mo)

That's all I can think of right now. I'll add more later.


And here are some new pics!
