Sophie has been giving us some good belly laughs lately – which when you watch you can’t help but laugh yourself. We just figured out how to download videos off of the video camera, so this one is actually from July 4th (as you’ll notice from her festive outfit).
Sophie doesn’t seem to mind spending time on her tummy as much as she used to. Although, today she rolled over onto her stomach when she was napping, and was pretty pissed when she woke up because couldn’t roll back over.
You can also tell in this picture how light her hair is getting. When the sun hits it it’s almost auburn. 
Bath time!Candice (Sophie’s nanny) wouldn’t let me get her bum in the picture – so now she’s decent with a washcloth. 
On Saturday we went and visited Dave’s Mom Mom – Sophie’s great grandmother – for her 90th birthday. We brought some Tony Luke’s from Philly and enjoyed lunch with the birthday girl. 
Four Generations
This morning Sophie had her 4 week check-up. She got her second round of immunizations and was not happy about it. She was also weighed and measured. A whopping 16lbs 6ozs, which puts her in the 95% for weight, and 25 1/8 inches long, which puts her in the 75% for height.
We spent the 4th of July weekend in Avalon. It was incredibly hot, but we still got in some good beach time. Unfortunately the water was freezing. We dipped Sophie’s feet in, but she didn’t like it too much. She much preferred to sit on her Nana’s lap. 
Here’s a shot of four generations
Sophie also rolled over for the first time this weekend! She’s been struggling with getting her one arm out from under her, but finally was able to do it.
We spent the last 4 days with the Sharp’s on their boat in the Chesapeake. It was a wonderful, relaxing vacation. We met them in Rock Hall, MD, sailed to Annapolis, then Lankford Creek, and then back to Rock Hall. The first night was really hot, but it got better after that – and we were able to sit out under the stars at night and do some swimming during the day.
Sophie enjoyed being on the boat. She spent most of the timing laying back with her hair blowing in the breeze. 
She also had a chance to do a little swimming. Although she wasn’t a huge fan of the life vest, she didn’t seem to mind the water. She floated around for a few minutes before she wanted to get out. Luckily the water felt just like bath water. We’ll have her swimming like an olympian in no time!
Zoe had her 15th birthday on Monday and we celebrated with cake and ice cream.
