It's gross, but I like it!

Here's a video of Sophia taking a couple bites of yogurt. She always does this when she eats something new. But she must not think it's too bad, since she wants more...




And here is a video of the ever elusive first three teeth...



I have a couple pictures of her teeth to post, but it's not letting me right now. I'll post them as soon as I can.

To (hopefully!) make some extra money, I have designed a couple of images for baby tshirts. Here are the ones I have so far (click on the picture to make it bigger):

Let me know if you would like to buy one!

My little biting machine

Sophia now has two more teeth on the bottom. Three teeth in one short week! She's biting everything in sight, including me. Her mood seems to be a bit better today, so hopefully we're through the worst of it. For now.
I'm trying to get a picture of all those little teeth, but her darn tongue is always in the way. (If you know Sophia, this should come as no surprise. She LOVES her tongue.) Hopefully I'll have some luck with a pic soon.

On a side note, we had the swimming pool opened today. Yay! Here's are a couple of pictures from when we took her swimming when we were in Galveston on April. I can't wait to get her out into our pool!

And we have a tooth!

Last evening, Sophia was giving me "kisses" (slobbering all over my chin) when she bit down and it HURT! Like any good mom, I immediately stuck my finger into her mouth, and discovered a tiny little tooth poking through on the bottom left.

I should also add that *crossing my fingers* Sophia has finally started to sleep good at night. For the past five nights (tonight will be the sixth) she has been sleeping from 9 p.m. to 8 a.m., getting up only once or twice. And on Tuesday night she actually slept for the whole 11 hours straight! This, from the girl who was waking up as many as 10 times a night only one short month ago. This did not happen by accident. It has taken a lot of work. But it seems to be finally paying off! It has been eight months since I had a really good night's sleep. Hopefully soon...

c is for cow

We accidentally discovered Sophia thinks the word "cow" is the funniest thing ever. See for yourself.



Don't you just love that belly laugh??

Happy in Texas

This is a test to see if I can get a video to work...

If it works, this is Sophia when we were in Texas.

Gosh, she's cute!

At her 6-month appointment, Sophia weighed 21 lbs. 4 oz. and was 28.5" tall. She's above the 95 percentile in all areas.
