This one is for Nana

Nana, I know you're not in love w/ the bows in her hair-however, you do LOVE the back of her head. I took these pictures for you. Look at those curls!

8.5-10.5 months

Once again, I have fallen behind on my blog duties. I've been updating my facebook page, but neglecting the blog. I promise to be better.
These pictures are from the last couple of months-starting w/ the most recent pictures. I can't believe how fast she's growing. She has a long torso like me, and her hair is growing as fast as her body. She has two bottom teeth, and FOUR top. She's also developing a red headed temper, although she's still sweet as can be. As her Nana says, "she has a mind of her own". Boy does she ever!

This was our last day in TN.

Sitting in the same rocking chair that Beth sat in at her age.

A rare moment of cuddling w/ her Nana. She's usually too busy to sit still.

Her first time swimming in a lake. She had a blast. Nana & Beth had fun too, watching her go crazy.

Sitting in a big girl swing...she wasn't so sure about it.

Nana being silly wearing Sophia's hat.

"Teaching" Nana how to play the piano. Every time Nana tried to place Sophie's fingers on the keys, Sophie would toss her hand aside. She already had it covered. =)

A pianist in the making.

Devouring her first nectarine from the Mennonite village. She went so crazy for the nectarine that she bit my thumb & ate everything but the pit. They really were the best nectarines I had ever eaten.

Fresh air! We took advantage of being outside in TN, since we don't get much of that in the Summer time in TX.

Sitting in her excersaucer after swimming lessons. She still likes to play w/ the toys on the outside of the excersaucer, but doesn't like being "trapped" in there.

Marcy's first trip out to see Sophia. We had a blast.
Playing the Indian game w/Marcy.

"Sharing" Marcy's water bottle.
She loves to drink out of water bottles.

Kris bought this cowboy hat for Jackson. It was a bit too small for him, so she gave it to Sophie.

Being silly w/ Terry.
