Dear Sam

Dear Sam,

Here is a list of things I learned from you while I was in Pennsylvania.

1. Sitting still while having my diaper changed is boring.
2. Rolling around while having my diaper changed is fun.
3. Getting kisses from Mommy is boring.
4. Getting kisses from boys is fun...but ONLY if they are from my boy COUSINS.
5. Saying "Ah Goo" is boring.
6. Saying "Bbbbb" is fun.
7. Crawling forward towards my toys is boring.
8. Crawling around the room chasing an empty water bottle is fun.
9. Delicately pushing buttons on toys is boring.
10. Banging on tables is fun.

Love,
Sophie

Rice Cereal!

We have been waiting patiently for Sophie to be 6 months old so that we could feed her rice cereal. Since she is 6 months old tomorrow, tonight was the big night! Needless to say, we aren't quite sure how much she really ate and how much she just spit out, but it was a lot of fun to watch her anyway. And, as you can see, even though she didn't seem to love it, she didn't hate it enough to not finish the bowl! We will see how she feels about veggies next week!

Do you see anything different about these pictures?



When we were at Nancy and Paul's on Sunday, we let Sophie play with her pacifiers. We do this all the time, and she has never liked them. But, all of a sudden, she put the pink one in her mouth, started sucking, and basically hasn't taken it out since then. And it's only the pink one. We have offer her the other ones, but she wants nothing to do with them.

On top of being cute, this is great news because it completely changes our nights. She can sleep alone, because she can soothe herself by sucking on the pacifier. Things are about to change around here.
