Baby legs pictures


So after I made my first pair I had to make more because I love them!  She has five pair now and probably more to come.  Of course I had to buy outfits to wear with the baby legs and now that's pretty much all she wears.  LOVE IT!

Hair and Teeth


Sophia finally has enough hair to make a tiny little pigtail.  She looks so cute with her hair done instead of down all the time.  I love it!  In other news she has her two bottom teeth and her two top teeth are coming in at the same time.  The last few days have been hard because she has been so uncomfortable.  Hopefully they will break through soon so she can feel better!

I'm Obsessed!

Ok, I don't know where my picture went, but I had to make more baby legs.  I think they are so cute and now I'm obsessed!  I went to Target and they have LOTS of socks!  I made red, white, pink and light brown.  Then I had to buy more dresses to match, so off I went to Kohl's.  I found 3 outfits on sale and bought them all.  I will take more pictures, so check back!

Sledding and the pink marshmallow
















We finally got enough snow to go sledding, so we bundled up and drove to a wonderful, big hill about 5 minutes from our house. We were only there for about an hour, but we had lots of fun! I wanted to get snow pants for Sophia, but everywhere was sold out. I finally found this snow suit at Wal-mart and bought it because it was the last one. We probably won't use it much, but I figure I can pass it on to family members and hopefully it will get used enough. She couldn't really move, so when I put her down she just sat there and looked around. She went down the hill with Sara and Daddy and had so much fun! We will try to get back there while we still have some snow this season.

Baby Legs!


How cute are these? Can you believe I made them? I did, and they only took 5 minutes! I saw a tutorial online and had to go to Wal-mart last night to buy knee socks! All you do is cut off the foot, make a cuff out of the part you cut off, then sew it back on. I love them!

Baby food

As if I don't have enough to do I decided to make Sophia's baby food. I only do the vegetables and still buy the fruits because they are a lot harder to do. On the far left is carrots with a little brown sugar. The green one is broccoli with cooked pasta and parmesan cheese, and on the right is sweet potatoes with oatmeal and a little cinnamon. The sweet potatoes I will buy fresh, but usually for lack of time I buy frozen carrots and broccoli which is almost as good. There isn't a whole lot of fruit I can buy frozen that doesn't have seeds and it takes quite a bit of time to peel and seed the fresh fruit. I usually make a big batch once a week or once every other week and freeze most of it, so it's not too much work. Sophia loves it and I enjoy trying different combinations. Next I am going to try sweet potatoes with a little peeled and cooked apple. I just use my blender and it works great!

Play time

Sophia is into EVERYTHING! She goes into the kitchen and if one of the cupboards has been left unlocked she opens it and starts pulling everything out. The other day she was playing peek-a-boo in the blinds and I just had to play with her and get this picture. We keep reminding the kids to keep the doors closed, especially to the bathroom or she will make a big mess! I forgot that I left the bucket I soak clothes in on the floor in the kitchen and she spilled it- there was water all over the floor! Oh man am I there!
