Sophie is 1/2 a year old! All I can say is WoW!! She is changing so much everyday and it's fun to see what she is learning. She can now officially roll over from her tummy to her back without any assistance. It took her longer than most babies because of that darn brace! He is still not a huge fan of tummy time, but she's improving. She can push up on her arms pretty high, so crawling may come soon!Sophie is eating solid food right now, which is a treat for her and a mess for us! She has tried rice cereal, peas, green beans, sweet potatoes, and squash and hasn't turned anything down. Sweet potatoes are her favorite by far! I'm sure once she tries fruit, there won't be any turning back! After she is given a spoonful of food, she shoves her fist in her mouth to help get the food down. It's the funniest thing!
She is also doing a great job handling her toys and playing with them. She can pass toys back and forth between her hands and she gets mad when she drops toys. She loves things that rattle and she's discovered that she can make a few of her toys sing. I don't think she knows she's doing it, but she sure enjoys the sounds! We are gaining quite the inventory of toys, something I think we both thought we wouldn't have so much of! It's really fun to play with her with them of course!
Speaking of sounds... Sophie has discovered her voice and it's so fun to hear her! She makes all sorts of sounds and sometimes it seems like she's telling us a story. I can't wait for her to make real words, but baby language is the cutest!
Sophie is still doing well at daycare. In fact, she sleeps there much better than she does at home on the weekend. It's probably because we're on the go so much and aren't on as good of a schedule. The ladies at daycare love Sophie to pieces and we're very fortunate to have her in such good hands!
