Coming April 2014


We have a big announcement!  We're expecting #2 in April!


We are so excited!  I've been sick, but not as sick as last time.  Don't let that statement discount how I've felt.  I haven't been throwing up non-stop but the severe nausea and fatigue have been enough to make up for it.  I am about 12 weeks and hope to start feeling better soon.  The night time is when I am most sick, and spend it laying and waiting for bedtime so I can "sleep it off."  We are anxious to find out what we're going to be having and can't wait until Sophie grasps the concept she will be a big sister!

Jeremiah's and Lagoon

Sophie is probably the pickiest eater on the planet.  Part of it is that she is a little stubborn, and part of it has to do with some of her sensory issues.  We have tried it all... hiding foods, forcing her to try things, ignoring it, and even did some therapy with an OT.  We've kind of accepted it and know what she loves.  Breakfast food is usually always a big hit... specifically she loves McDonalds and Jeremiah's.  She can eat like a grown man there.  She eats 3 strips of bacon, some french toast/pancake, oranges, and we usually order her an extra side of sausage she will eat all by herself.  I love it there too, it's quite the treat!  We went there today.  


After, Kale took Sophie to Lagoon!  Sophie loves all things Halloween so she was really excited to see al the frightmares stuff!  They had a lot of fun and her Dad doesn't get so sick on the rides like me so he can handle them a bit better.  Sophie always begs to get her face painted.  I can't commit to the $12 cost, but Kale gave in and Sophie was SO excited!



She picked the panda.  Ha!  She kept telling people in like "Do you like my face, I'm a panda?!"  She ha a blast.  


She did some of the Halloween activities and went trick or treating.  She also got to see lots of Halloween characters, like the witches!


Kale was a good sport to take her on a Saturday.  He said the weather was nice and the lines weren't bad at all.  Love that.

Skates

We poured a basketball court for Kale.  It's been great ... it's kind of an all-purpose pad.  Sophie found these skates in the garage and wanted to try them out.  They're not the most smooth rolling things, but she had fun!

Sophie the Secret Hoarder?

This girl loves to "collect" things.  She has a little bag that she stuffs full of stuff every time we leave (mostly stuffed animals/toys).  Her bed is the worst.  I don't know how she even fits!  I also don't know how she remembers... because I try to sneak things out of there and she can always tell.  It cracks me up!
