Christmas Card 2010

We are so lucky to have my dear friend Jackie take Sophia's pictures all the time. She is so talented and is so good with Sophia. I love the pictures she takes and I am so grateful to have her in our lives to do so. We had to do a little convincing with some chocolate cheerios and m&m's, but we got some great photos.

Dainty Eater

These pictures say it all. She is on a a kick where she hold things with only two fingers. It cracks Shawn and I up. When she ate the tortilla that was the first time we had seen her to do it. Then we went to five guys and she did it with a grilled cheese. Ha!

Christmas Tree Shopping

This year we decided to get a real tree. The fake one we were using was tired. We had gotten it for $25 the first Christmas Shawn and I were together. We were so excited to take Sophia to get a tree. We scoped out a super cute tree lot that had the small town local feel and everything. After all our planning and hopes, Sophia slept through the entire experience. Hopefully next year we will plan a little better and she can be awake during the process.

Playtime in the Crib

Here is Sophia playing in her crib. She thought it was pretty cool. I put her in there so I could put her clothes away without her throwing them all over.

Turkey Day Football Shirt

What would turkey day be without an awesome football shirt. Shawn picked this one out and I tried so hard to get a bow in Sophia's hair so it would make the outfit look a little more girlie but.....that did not work out so well. =)

Arizona for Thanksgiving

This year we went to Arizona to be with Shawn's grandparents for Thanksgiving. The last time we went Sophia was crawling around, but this time was a whole new experience because she was running around like a crazy girl. Shawn and I cooked Thanksgiving dinner, with guidance from Grandma of course. It was our first ever attempt at this. I have to say I was very impressed with ourselves. I was so scared I was going to ruin something. Wish they lived a little closer so we could spend more time with them. Sophia really does love hanging out with her Great Grandparents.

Avacados!

Sophia loves avacados these days. She has a heck of a time picking them up. Shawn and I were cracking up watching her make an absolute mess of herself. There really are no words for these pictures.
