Sophie Sings

Sophie's been doing great with her abc's. We captured as much as we could on video but she was definitely more interested in watching it then recording it :) Enjoy

Long Weekend and CDM

Sophie's school was closed the Friday before the Fourth of July in order to complete some renovations that they are working on (this was traded for a day they normally take in October). Brock and I decided this was a good opportunity for us both to take the day off and go to the Children's Discovery. Sophie loved it and we had a great time. Afterward, we had a luncheon at Firehouse Pizza and then ice cream for a little treat. All and all it was a great day.

I DID IT!

Can you hear me now???

After many months of ear infections and seeing a specialist. It was determined the best course of action was tubes with the possibility of removing the adenoid.

This morning Brock and I entrusted the ENT to take care of our little girl. The surgery didn't take very long. They inserted the tubes, did a nasal endoscopy to determine if the adenoid was enlarge and the did remove it. The surgery went very well although she did not like the IV and fought a little bit when they brought her back the room.

We are home and she is resting well. She is still a bit loopy from the anesthesia but all and all is doing well.

They even prepped Tigger for Surgery

Another Happy Year!

Today I celebrated another birthday! Each year I am reminded how truly blessed I am. I have a loving supportive husband and a beautiful little girl who can make me smile even when things are crazy! I have an awesome family (both immediate and extended). Thanks to all who sent birthday wishes, to my in-laws for coming out to celebrate with us, and especially to my husband and daughter who have made me feel special every day and not just on birthday! Love to all!

Pajama Day @ School!

What could be better then wearing pajamas to school! ( Sorry it's not a better picture but she would not cooperate that morning for a picture :))

State Farm Zoo Day!

Tonight State Farm offered a "Family Zoo Night" for their employees. One of my friends from work and I both decided this would be a great opportunity for us to get "the girls" together (She has a little girl who was born the October after Sophie).

We met up for a quick dinner at Culvers and then headed to the zoo. The girls had such a good times and became fast friends. They were so cute. I've included some of the highlights below.

This turned into full belly laughs by the time we left the exhibit.
