More Progress.....I think!

So I wanted to update everyone on Sophie. We hit a couple of milestones these last few weeks. First we managed to get over 16 lbs (16lbs 4.5oz) when we went in for our last weight check to make sure she is still on the growth charts. (she also was 27 14/16th inches, we asked the nurse do you mean 27 7/8 inches??) Anyway, I guess I realized that size doesn't matter now that Sophie pulls to stand on every piece of furniture we have and most of it is higher than average. She loves to pull up especially on the tubs and the front loading washer and dryer when I have them open and doing laundry. The first time she pulled up on the washer she did attempt to climb in, luckily she was too small (or the washer was too high) She has also managed to figure out how to climb steps. I was surprised when I went to the bathroom (which is up 2 steps from the living room) and came out and found her on the 2nd step. That night she climbed 3 steps and the following day she managed to do all 16 of our steps. Bryce thinks she will like rock climbing and I still think she will like gymnastics.

We had a good Easter. I did a small basket with books, stuffed animals. She immediately pulled it all out and threw them across the room. I hid a few plastic eggs and with some coaxing she found 4-5 of them before becoming really disinterested. Anyway, I look forward to really having her older next easter so that I can dye eggs.

Our little climber. She gets mad when I put up the gate!

I guess that's one way to get into a car seat!


Dad took Sophie out in the blizzard that we had at the end of March. It was cold!
