Hey ya'll!
Sorry about taking up some "News" space but I wanted to give you the update on the 'blog kid' lol.
Sophie will be 4 months old this month! Can you believe it?
She's rolling over, practicing sitting up and coos over EVERYTHING.

She is also practicing walking in her walker and scoots herself backward until she hits a wall. Then she screams lol.

She loves eating from a spoon. She loves bananas, pears and apples and especially loves mushing the baby food all over her face. I think that might be because she likes getting a bath afterwards! Sophie just LOVE LOVE LOVES the water!

She took her first plane ride last month to Conn. She did soo good and slept the whole way there and back. Security was so obnoxious. TPA made me take her out of the carseat (which was attached to the stroller) and walk the stoller with carseat attached through the metal detector with Sophie on my arm, barefeet and trying to keep track of my carryon and diaper bag.

That was bearable.

Bradley International made me take Sophie out of the car seat, detach the carseat from the stroller, fold them both up and send them through the x-ray machine...barefoot with the carryon and diaper bag...but then the carseat and stroller wouldn't fit through that x-ray machine so I had to go through a different line, while my shoes and other items were still at that line. Oh, what a mess. And NOT ONE airline associate came to help! A woman with an infant in her arms trying like hell to fold up a stroller, manage a carseat, 2 bags and some flip flops while holding up the ENTIRE line.

Thank God for TPA...their associates were helpful and it was MUCH easier.

Maybe FOX should do a report on that! lol What's a woman to do? At least they didn't confiscate my formula which was a qt of liquid, since it doesn't come in powered form!

Oh well, we got there and back and Sophie had her first swim in an alligator free lake! She LOVED it. I'll put more pics up soon!

I'm glad y'all got back and Miss Sophie enjoyed her swim.

One day I hope sanity returns to our airports.

Miss Sophie is getting more adorable every day!

Jumpy, I am so happy for both of you! You seem to keep things in the proper perspective.

Little Sophie will continue to thrive because you seem to exhibit the quality of being happy with her precious accomplishments. Keep that quality and continue your praise of "good" in her tiny steps in developement.

Some parents loose that quality and as their children age demand perfection in everything.......... I have seen and worked with a lot children who's spirits have been crushed by parents who demand too much.

Take a look at the blog I posted in the "Faith Blog" section. - Sometimes Good, Is Good Enough -

Pictures are woth more than a thousand words. When I look at Sophie, I see a happy baby. I see bright eyes and bright skin. She presents accute awareness.... I am always concerned when I see babies who are the opposite...

Like mommy, like daughter.

She has a good role model Jump.

Nothing is better than watching your child grow and develop their own personality.

Sophie sounds like real bundle of joy!

I'm a new mom. Happily married to the most wonderful man in the world. I love animals and the environment but i'm far from a "tree hugging hippie" i like to fish and shop. Personally, I believe a picture is worth a thousand words, so I tend to post pictures instead of full length sermons.
