The Week in Review

 Sofia is officially 11 months old!  I seriously can't believe that it has ALMOST been a year since we meet our precious angel.  I know people say that it goes fast all the time, but man, I had no idea that it was going to be THIS fast :( She is still a baby, even in medical terms, but people keep saying she's becoming a "big girl".  Just hold it right there you all cause she is still a baby.  Let's let her be that as long as we can!  

 She is changing and developing more each day.  We just can't get over how much she does now!  New words and sign language signs just pop out of her little self all of the sudden!  These little babes take in more than you realize...trust me.  It is so fun though and we are enjoying every single minute of it.

 Now we are planning the first birthday and it is overwhelming and exciting at the same time.  Since it is in June, we are planning an outdoor party and praying that the weather cooperates.  She loves to be outside, as do most children, so it will be perfect.  Some of the plans you may ask???  Well, we are PLANNING on having a miniature pony and possibly a mariachi band!  This Mexican restaurant we visit every Friday night has a band she loves and they can be "rented"!  How fun is that??? Ponies, mariachi, and BBQ and wings!  Doesn't get much more fun ;)

We will see though because I am sadly behind on the planning.  Something I am working on at this very minute!

 Another thing we are enjoying thoroughly is the pull behind Bert and Tammura are letting us use.  We go for bike rides almost every morning.  It's great exercise for me and she loves it.  She seriously smiles the entire time!  I don't even know what she is smiling at but she is smiling.  Geez, I love her :)

 We also have been going to the ball park a lot watching my nephews, Ian and Alex, play ball.  As I have mentioned before, she is a huge people watcher (can't imagine where she gets that!) and she loves to watch sports as well.  Anywhere we have taken her that has a ball involved she is into it!  Watching J.R. hit golf balls, play basketball, or watching the boys play baseball.  You name it she loves it!

 And here she is with her Poppi watching Ian's game and enjoying her FIRST sucker!  She made a mess but really enjoyed it.  I don't give her many things sweet at all, considering she still nurses, she really doesn't eat much "real" food but she was all about this sucker!

Happy Monday to everyone and I hope you all had a wonderful weekend too!  
Enjoy as much time as you can with those you love!  Life is much better that way :)
