Home sweet home!

I love going home! We went to Idaho for Mothers Day weekend and it was one of the best trips home we've had in a long time. My grandma, aunts, and sister Emily were so excited to meet Sophie! She was so spoiled by people holding her nonstop the whole trip.


Abby had a volleyball tournament we went to. We were so surprised how good she is. She was one of the best ones on her team! I know she could already beat me in a match, which really wouldnt be too hard I guess.


We went to visit my great grandma in the Nursing Home in Ashton. We had to get a picture because not many people have 5 generations alive at once! Sophie has a great great grandma. My great grandma could not keep her eyes off Sophie long enough to get a good picture.

Sunday was her first time in a dress! She looked sooo cute. Her tights were the smallest ones I could find and they were still so baggy on her skinny little legs. She is still so tiny its hard to find clothes to fit her! She is already such a girly girl.
My favorite two people in the whole wide world! They are pretty dang cute. How can you not love these two?
My friend Jenna came over with her little girl Charlotte. Charlotte is about two months older than Sophie which seems like alot right now but I think later on they will be pretty good playmates. It was pretty funny seeing them together. Sophie was throwing a little fit for the pictures and Charlotte was just looking at her like she was crazy, then they both started crying. I always think Sophie is getting bigger until I put her next to other babies and realize she is still so tiny!

We got Sophies newborn pictures done and they turned out so cute even though she was awake mostly the whole time! Some reason it is taking forevvver to put them up so here is just a few of them until I can get more on later!

Two weeks!

Sophie turned two weeks old yesterday and to me she is already looking bigger than when she was born. She has been so much fun and I think she is a pretty good baby. I take at least two or three pictures a day because she does the cutest and funniest things. She had her two week checkup yesterday and she had gained a 1/2 pound. That doesnt seem like much but when your only 6 1/2 lbs to begin with then its alot!

She hates taking baths or being naked. We got her newborn pictures done and she threw the biggest fit when we undressed her and went to the bathroom all over the photographers props and blankets. It was a little embarassing!! The photographer kept waiting for her to give up and fall asleep but she wouldnt do it. It took about three hours and she was pretty much awake the whole time! By the end of the day we were all exhausted, and as soon as we got to the car she fell right to sleep.

She loves to have her hands right by her face always. We always have mittens on her hands because she would claw herself but they are always up. Sometimes she seems annoyed when we are trying to wake her up and she puts them over her eyes to cover them up. We always have to pry her hands down for pictures or they would all be of two little mittens.

She loves Tyler. After I feed her in the early mornings I bring her in to daddy and he puts her to sleep for the last time. She sleeps in her crib all the other times at night but in the mornings she will sleep in our bed. She usually curls right up to him and they fall asleep together. It is so cute I love seeing them together. His back has been hurting him lately because sometimes when he falls asleep with her in a wierd position he doesnt want to move or smash her!

My sister in law let me borrow this little bunny outfit and I didnt really think I would use it since its May, but we have put it to good use already. Sometimes when we go out and its windy I put Sophie in it and its so cozy and she looks so cute!


One of my favorite things is when she is full and happy and half asleep. She is so tiny she is just sitting on my lap right here and her little legs are just curled up.

I love my girl!
