Sophie - 8/8/2016

Sophie ate cheerios and most of banana serving for breakfast.  For lunch she ate a couple bites of cheese sandwich, two servings of tomato soup, and ate pickled beets.  She got up from the breakfast table singing so many different songs - singing enough of them that I could recognize them all.  "Twinkle Twinkle, ABC Song, I Did I Did I Did"  Is that one familiar!?!  Ha!  Cooper and I frequently sing a song about the "Iditarod Trail."  (Yearly sled dog race out of Alaska .)  "I did I did I did the Iditarod Trail...."  Then she had her dolls and was doing, "Walk walk, walk walk.."  The one Lauralea does with her.  She came to me saying another one Lauralea does; "Boston Boston Boston."

Baby Avilene is back from vacation and I was making a big deal out of her standing up - it's the first time we've seen it here.  Cooper said, "Sophie's standing up too!  She's big!"  Exactly!  And that's basically my point.  :)  So here's a picture of Avi AND Sophie both being BIG!!  In the 2nd picture Sophie is giving some more loves to Avilene!  Avi is receiving it quite well considering Sophie accidentally had poked Avi in the eye with her finger about 1 Minute before I took this picture!!  (So this picture gives you some insight into Avi's temperament!)

We did a toy, book, and puzzle exchange this weekend and here's a picture of Cooper and Sophie playing with the cars and car ramps.  I brought in some extra cars from our outside supply.  Cooper really likes those because they work well with the car ramp toys.  As Sophie was running her cars down the ramp she was saying, "Watch this Gary, watch this."  :)

We also played outside and saw the Templeton family riding their bikes and heading for the Missoula-to-Lolo Trail.  Cooper was trying to figure out why they'd be riding their bikes to Lolo.  He asked, "Is there a Football game there?!"  Hahaha!!  Sophie was standing back being a little shy, but soon went to the gate for a "Reid love."  Precious.
