Sophie fell this morning. Ugh!! She was on the yellow bench (see first picture below) and tried to stand up and pitched forward into the book rack that Elliott is crawling over. Her forehead above her left eye took the blow...it swelled instantly and I applied some ice to it. She was vehemently opposed to that, but I was insistent for several minutes and it definitely helped reduce the swelling!! Her pupils did not dilate and I watched her closely. I'm hoping for the best when she wakes up from her nap! I want to put six inches of padding on this child and then wrap her up with bubble wrap. Jeez!! Ok, now we'll move on to the fun stuff!!
The first place she and Elliott played was at the book rack reading lots of books. Elliott loves his books and it's a great example for Sophie! He was crawling behind the book rack (there's an exposed part of the heat vent behind there so the book rack isn't against the wall) and he read books there.
After changing Sophie's poopy diaper this morning I was playing with her on the changing table and pulling her shirt over her head. She, of course, started doing it herself and it was so cute. Don't you agree? :)
Cooper was playing in the clothes rack and Elliott tried to get in. Cooper said, "There's not room for two!!" Hmmm...I turned around and Sophie was playing in there with him. I guess there was room for two after all!! It just has to be the right person!! A little later Elliott tried to get in again and this time Cooper said, "There is not room for three!" (At least he has the correct count!) In the picture below Elliott was sticking his hand through the crack and Cooper and Sophie were grabbing it.
On Monday Reid was looking at Sophie (like he'd never seen her before) and said, "Him can't walk!?!" So I said, "I realize you've been gone quite a bit this summer, but first, Him is a Her, and she cannot yet walk!" Ha! However, this morning she was by the little climber steps and she stood straight up with hanging on to anything! :)
