Little Rascal

The little rascal, more affectionately named Sophia, is mobile! And there isn't a moment when she stops moving. She crawls everywhere with her tiny hiney wiggling around in the air. And she can push herself into standing position on the couch...yikes!

Where did my baby go?!

So now it is a constant chase to keep up with this toddler! 

I got the updated Bumbo with the seatbelt in an attempt to keep her seated. I bought one while I was still pregnant, used it once or twice when Sophia was barely big enough, and returned it when they got recalled a couple months ago. So far it seems like she's enjoying it.

Sophia turned eight months yesterday and has been busy with so many activities, including attending fancy weddings...

...holding town meetings...

...weathering some cold temps...

...visiting her animal friends at the zoo...

...and her alien aunts in Austin!

My two favorite holidays, Valentine's Day and Easter, are coming up! And then Sophia's 1st birthday. My plan is to have a more permanent home, so I can give her a big girl/playroom for her birthday! We'll see how it works out. This era of social media makes me feel guilty for not having Stepford-esque, Pinterest-worthy projects completed for my daughter. But that's a different battle for another day. For now, I'm going to rest until the little rascal wakes up from her nap.
