Happy Halloween!

Hope everyone is having a great Fall and getting ready to celebrate Halloween! Here are some new pictures. I love this one of Sophie and her quizzical look. She really wasn't sure what to think of me when I was taking her picture.


Sophie dressed up this morning as a ballerina for her daycare Halloween party. She had a great time! In the afternoon, she had her 15 month doctor's appointment. She currently weighs in at 16 lbs 3 oz (teeny, tiny, little peanut). In fact, she's still even wearing some 9 month size clothes!


And the biggest news of all, Sophie is going to have a little brother in March 2010! We are very excited and hope for a happy, healthy baby.

Redwood Falls Weekend

Congratulations to Britani and Adam, who got married in Redwood Falls last weekend. Sophie was the flower girl and I was the matron of honor. The wedding was beautiful and we had a great time. It was a busy weekend!

Here are some pictures from Live and Love Studios.






What else have we been up to? Just trying to keep warm during this unseasonably cold Autumn. I have been busy with training new hires at work, Bryan has been working on fixing up the house in Crystal and Sophie has been enjoying her days playing with her friends at daycare.

Happy Autumn!

The temps have cooled down and Fall is officially here. Last week, we went to the apple orchard with friends and had brats and apple donuts and had fun picking honeycrisp apples. They are so sweet and delicious!

On the weekends, we've been enjoying baby story time at the library and swimming lessons. This evening, we went to a family open swim night and we swam for an hour! Sophie came home very happy and was giggling throughout her dinner.

Sophie took her first steps on September 26, 2009, at 14 months old. She's been sleeping 12 to 13 hours a night, usually going to bed around 6am and waking up at 6 or 7am. Her favorite words are: doe (her way of saying Zoe), no, uh-oh, happy, baby, dada, papa and num-num. She loves eating fruit, cheese, yogurt, pasta and pizza. We love watching her grow up and learn new things.
