"Ga Guh"

Two big things happened this past Monday.

1. Sophie stood up on her own...like, without holding onto anything. She has done it for like one second a million times before, but this was for such a long time. I don't even think she knew she was doing it, and she hasn't done it since.

2. She may have said her first real word. Well, I guess I don't really know what determines what a baby's first word is...I mean, she has pointed at me and said, "Mama", she has pointed at Pete and said, "Dada", and a few other things like that, but she also goes around saying, "Mamamamama" all day long and pointing at other things. Anyway, this seemed different. She kept pointing at the dogs and saying, "Ga Guh." AKA, "dog". She even pointed at a dog in a book today and said it.

Either way, I am guessing this means that both talking and walking are just around the corner! How exciting!

Squinchy/Squishy Face

Pete blames this face on Sam.

Baby Legs

I love Baby Legs. Please observe her knees when I forget to put them on.

Curly-Haired Baby

Sophie, like her father as a baby, has curly-hair tendencies. So, since it is about a million degrees out and really humid, her hair tends to do this. Do you see those little ringlets?

Ha ha!


Why so sad?

She isn't really sad. As usual, she is the happiest baby in the world. Also,

1. Her two front teeth popped through.
2. She has started a cute little screaming thing. She screams, we scream, she screams, we scream. The higher the better.
