Week 21: Growth spurt and Krissy's bday

On Monday, we went to playgroup at Melanie's house and Jen joined us with Andrew for the first time. She is a long time friend of my neighbor - small world.











Playing some more before bed...
















On Tuesday we went to Ali's yoga class in Bethel. Sophia is catching up in size to Noa and Maddie who are the oldest in the group.













Tuesday night's concert in the park was a lot of fun. Leah, Melissa, Casey, Janelle, Yana and Amy are in the picture on the left. Some of the husbands were there as well. Corey and Ryan are on the right side. Nick was at his final happy hour at his job, trying to unwind after a hard last day. Life should get easier now when he starts his new job next week!







On Wed we walked in town and played at home. Lots of drool from the Sophie Boo. She likes staying on her tummy for longer periods of time now.
















On Thursday we went to Randie's pool with Ali and Janelle and I used my big floppy hat to keep the sun off Sophia. She actually fell asleep in the water and I put her down in her car seat for a long nap while I got to keep swimming!



Someone has a beer belly! Is that Elton John?








Thursday evening we stopped by Nick's friend Lauren's office to visit and discuss taxes. We then went out to sushi and Sophia did great in the restaurant.
























Friday's playgroup ended up at Starbucks since it was heat wave outside. Melissa and Jodi (with the twins) were there. Sophia had fun in the air conditioning. Then we went to the farmer's market and it was so hot all the babies got red. We had to get back to air conditioning and there happened to be wine tasting right next door. Ali and Layla entertained the twins, while the rest of us tasted some local wines.

Sophia enjoyed sitting in her activity center, which her Daddy put together that evening. She is still a little small to grab the toys, but soon she will playing with everything.






Friday evening Sophia seemed like she still was hungry so I tried to give her more milk from a sippy cup. She grabbed the cup and started drinking from it...Half of it ended up in her belly, but the rest was all over her.

She has actually been eating less frequently this week, every 3 hrs instead of 2. Everyone has been saying that she grew a lot last week, so perhaps this is a new phase.


Getting ready to go to Grandma's house on Saturday. Sophia has been doing mini crunches when she lays down as if trying to sit up.







Grandma had a new stuffed toy for Sophia


















We celebrated Aunt Krissy's birthday over beef stew with dumplings and strawberry shortcake.
Happy birthday!










Chuck came over on Sunday to visit, bringing lots of fresh veggies from his garden. yummy!
