Sophie Says...

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!

Date Night...

I was cooking supper tonight and Madalyn was setting the table. She told me that Loraly and her were going to eat at their small table and Mark and I were eating at the dinner table because she was making us a date! She set the table, laid "dress" clothes out for us to wear, and even lit a candle on the table for us! She was quite upset when we asked them to sit with us because we wanted to share our date night with them. She was so sweet and thoughtful to think of us and by making a perfect date for Mark and I! Loraly even told us Happy Valentine's Day!

I HEART anything personalized!

Mark's boss had this burp cloth and bloomers made for Sophie. Aren't they adorable?! And guess what--she didn't even know that I had done everything for Sophie in pink and green! She is awesome!

This is where Sophie has been since around 9:15 this morning. She almost went back to the ER last night around 10. She had her vaccinations done Wednesday and she has not been anywhere near herself since then. She has been FUSSY, won't eat, won't sleep, and isn't consolerable when upset. I called the on call doctor and he said to go ahead and take her to the ER and get some blood work done just to make sure everything is ok. But as we were watching her last night after that, she went to sleep FINALLY, and was asleep from then until 2 this morning, and as of this morning she has been an angel and pretty much normal. So we will continue to watch her through the weekend and if she doesn't seem better then we will head to the doctor Monday.

Sophie got a new pair of shoes!

Don't you just love these?! I also got a pair for my friend Lacy's little boy-Josiah. Sophie's are a little too big still, but hopefully she will be able to wear them soon because they are just too cute to be sitting in the closet!

Loraly asks...

After dropping off Madalyn at school this morning, Loraly asked me a very sweet question: "Mommy, is Jesus in Heaven with Paul?" I answered yes; then she asked another question "Is Jesus taking care of Paul in Heaven?" I again answered YES.

I wonder what what going through this little 4 year old's mind this morning...

2 month doctors appointment!

Goodness---has it already been 2 months since I had my baby?!
It seems like yesterday! Everyday new day with her is another gift from God! She is a wonderful baby. She smiles, talks, sleeps really well (we won't talk about last night!), is growing, loves her sisters, and I couldn't have asked for a more sweet, beautiful baby!

So her stats:
weight: 12 pounds even! 60% percentile
length: 23 1/4 inches! 65 % percentile

She has grown about 4 1/2 pounds and almost 4 inches! WHat a big girl.
We are loving every new day with Sophie!
