Goofy Time!





   Hey you! Sophie here playing with my favorite cat Socks. I have tons of pictures and stories to share this post, so let's get started!







   First of all, I had a GREAT time when my Pepa and Yaya visited for Pepa's 49th birthday! I hadn't seen them since I was 5 months old so I was super excited. We went to the beach together and watched movies and had tons of fun! Pepa is Mommy's daddy, so she was extra happy to be able to celebrate his birthday with him! Here are a couple pictures from their visit.





   This was when we all went to the beach together! It was so much fun! Everyone took turns going out in the waves and playing with me on the beach. It was even overcast so we didn't have to wear hats or put up the umbrella. So fun!





     The only part that wasn't so fun, was when we were about to leave and I got tickled too much and it made me sad :(


   And here's a pic of Mommy and Pepa when we went out for his birthday dinner!


   While they were here we also went to pick up souvenirs for my cousins! Yaya got them some awesome Padre Island T-shirts to wear, and she got me a new Padre Island onesie that is just fabulous!






   Daddy tried to get me to show off my new onesie since it shrunk to my size in the wash, but Mommy just couldn't get a picture where you could read the words. It says "If You Think I'm Cute, You Should See ME On Facebook". And then it says "Padre Island" on it too!












   After Pepa and Yaya's visit we went back to our normal routine. And the next morning I got to eat blueberry pancakes in my pajamas! I LOVE pancakes so much! I ate an entire one!







   I got to go back to my usual shenanigans and Mommy and I started spending more quality time together before she starts school. She's going back to classes on the 22nd so Daddy will be taking care of me in the mornings and Mommy will have me when Daddy goes to work in the afternoons. It's going to be tough getting used to being away from her more, but Daddy and I will have tons of fun together so it'll be okay. Wish us luck for the new semester!

   One last thing, Mommy was sure that she didn't have any pictures at all from the day I was born, but that wasn't true at all! We just unearthed a bunch of pictures and a couple videos of my first ever bath! Mommy was sososo excited to have them, I don't really get why, but she says I'll understand someday. Here's the shorter of the two video's from my first bath.


   Isn't it great to have good memories? On that note, Mommy has almost finished my baby book and it looks great! Okay well I've got to go back to playing with my kitty cat now! Socks won't wait forever! Bye!

Sincerely,
              Sophie

Eat Better, Spend Less!






*gulp gulp* Oh, hang on! *slurp slurp*












   Hi!!! Sorry about the wait, you caught me in the middle of brunch! I guess it's as good a time as any for a new blog post. Mommy and I are just waiting for Daddy to get home from work.





   So, remember last post when I told you that Daddy and Mommy are trying to get in shape by working out? Well Mommy's also starting a new initiative called Eat Better, Spend Less! She started a few days ago by making out a weekly meal plan that is fairly balanced and easy. Then she announced to the whole family: "Absolutely no eating out for an entire month!" Daddy and Mommy are unhappy to admit that we've been eating out far to much, around once a day! There is no excuse for that so it's time to change!

   Now that we are eating in more I'm getting to try more new foods! I'm learning to use my fingers to feed myself and my sippy cup to drink. I had a bad time when I found out I can't eat pears. I have a super bad reaction to them, but at least we know now.





    Mommy made omelets yesterday and said they turned out too pretty not to take a picture of, so here's a picture of Mommy's omelet!









    Moving on. You know how I LOVE to play dress up? You don't???? Well I totally LOVE to play dress up!!! Now that you know, here's a picture of me playing dress up, mix and match style. We were being silly :)







   And last but not least, a picture of my favorite cat Socks! We had just gotten back from the pool when Socks decided that my pool toy was his new bed! Silly Socks!




   Well, I guess that's all for....
       Oh wait! One more! One more! You can see 3 of my teeth in this one!


   Now that's all! TTFN, ta ta for now!

Sincerely,
