January

I haven't posted for a while so hence the title. Nothing much has really gone on this month besides alumni bball tournament this past weekend. It was so much fun to see everyone this weekend from Clinton's graduating class. So many people came back, more than usual. Clintons team won two of three games on Saturday so for the first time ever they played on Sunday and won their first then lost the next game. It was the farthest their team has ever gone, woohoo! Clinton sprained his ankle so it is black and blue on the inner and outer sides of his ankle. This year it was his right ankle the last two it has been is left. I'm pretty sure both he and I have weak ankles. I'm starting to get the itch for spring, a couple nights ago with the rain it was a quite tease. Of course then that froze and became the coldest night of the winter :/ Sophie as usual with any baby is changing all the time. Mostly this month I've noticed her interest in interacting with me and becoming more and more of a little person and less baby. I think I will look back at this time when she is one and miss it. She's just such a snuggle bunny especially with me. She is 100% mommys girl but I'm sure that will change once she learns to appreciate her playtime with daddy. Here are a few pic's I'll leave you with. Several at that. I take a lot!

4 Months!!!!









I don't have much to say but She's getting big. She is doing great and seems to be developming new skills and interests daily. She loves to grab the cats hair... and hold on. Mrs. Jones however, doesn't appreciate it so much though. She's learning to stay away pretty quick. Sophie is sitting up with assistance now. She can't stay up for too long because she loses balance and plop, that was that. Can't wait what this new month brings!!!

Sophie Made the News!!!

My sisters and I at Como Park!



My family and I went sledding up at Como Park the Saturday before Christmas. My Aunt and Uncle insisted that we have Sophie go on a little sled. Just as we parked and got out to see what we were going to do. I noticed Channel 5 news camera reporter had parked behind us and was getting his cameras out to tape sledders out and about that day. He video taped Sophie and they had it on the news at 6, 10 and apparently the next morning too. She's already a star ;)

Christmas 2007

This was Christmas at Clinton's parents house. We opened gifts there, had dinner and watched Nat. Lapoons Christmas Vacation. It was a very fun time.


Here are "the dad's" with their girls, Lincoln with Chloe and Ashlyn, Grant with Josie, and Clinton and Sophie.
This was Sophie opening her first Christmas present. She helped a lot more than I thought she would,.. of course enjoying the wrapping paper more than the gift.. :)

Clinton and I had a very wonderful and BUSY Christmas season. We had a total of 7 events we needed to go to over the course of four days. Sophie didn't hadn't all of the crazyness very well and two days after christmas she got sick. She's much better now but that was very nerve racking.
