Thanks to everyone for making it such a special day! What a perfect first birthday party!
One Year Check-up
Sophie had her one year doctors appointment today. She’s a very happy, healthy little girl (which we already knew!). She weighs in at 22lbs 11ozs and is 29 3/4” tall. Pictures from her actual birthday to come (as soon as I find the adaptor cord to our camera).
An Early Birthday Present
Sophie’s birthday isn’t until Wednesday, but we couldn’t wait to give her her present, a little kitchen! Since she spends so much time with us cooking, we figured she could do a little of her own now.
A Day at the Zoo
This weekend I took Sophie to the Zoo. Sunday was a beautiful, almost spring-like day, so we decided to get a little time outside and see some animals.
Aquarium
Yesterday we visited the Camden Aquarium. Sophie loves the fish at the Sharp’s house (which she calls “shhhhh”), so we thought a building full of them would be fun. She loved the big tank, but was also very intersted in the swarm of other kids that were there.
Key West
Snow Day!
We got a foot of snow last night and since Sophie got a new snow suit for Christmas we decided to venutre out (well, venture outside the front door at least). While Dave shoveled the street, we did some exploring along the street.
Removal of the Tail
Well, it’s about that time. The tail had a good run, but to begin 2011 we decided that instead of being business in the front and a party in the back, we’d be business all the way around. Tail, you’ll be remembered fondly.
We’re walking!
It’s been a step here and a step there – but she’s finally getting the hang of it. When Benson isn’t knocking her over she’s actually getting in a good 5-7 steps. Here’s a short video. And here’s another from just a day later. She’s gettin’ good!
Happy New Year!
New Year’s Eve we spent with our friends, Rebecca and John, and New Year’s Day we relaxed at home. What a good start to 2011! (Thanks Auntie Aleen for this cute New Year’s outfit!)
