For the past five or six months since I quit working part time I have LOVED it, but I will admit that January and a little bit of February are giving me some cabin fever! I just want the sun to come out so me and Sophie can go on walks and go out to the pool every single day!! I really cannot wait. But since we have been cooped up inside I have had to lean on my friends and some family to keep me sane!
Me and Sophie met up with my friend Brittany and her little boy Desmond. He was so funny and cute with her. He loves kisses and could not get enough of her! Sophie is pretty funny with little boys. At church she likes to find them and smile at them sitting around us. If any walk out to the bathroom or something she stares at them and smiles. Its so cute, but a little scary! I think we are going to have our hands full.
Michelle and her little boy were so cute playing this boxing game. He was hilarious to watch play the Kinect. He was trying to play this racing one and he was just standing there and jumping up and down and waving his arms. He is so cute!
My poor little Soph has gotten a little cold and a cough mixed with teething off and on in the past week. The cough never seems very bad during the day but in the night its hard to hear her up coughing and not be able to do anything about it. It seems like its never going to go away! I have been trying not to take her out in the cold very much and I have been putting Baby Vicks Vaporub on her before she goes to bed but I dont think it really helps with her nose at all. This picture she looks a little bit sad and sick feeling.. :(
Here is a picture of all her teeth! She is nine months old and is growing in her 7th tooth! She has so many they are so cute. She has four on top and in the process of three on bottom. Its pretty funny though she can eat like saltine crackers and just hold them and bite them right off with her teeth.
Grandma Moore gave her this cute purple little lamb dress. She looks so cute in it I had to take a picture of her before church yesterday! It is SO hard to stay the whole three hours at church with her. Actually it is almost impossible because her nap time is at 10, and our church is at nine. Unfortunately she has passed the stage of falling asleep in her carseat at all. I dont know how people do it with a bunch of little kids! Right after sacrament is over she starts going crazy because she wants to be in bed. We usually end up trading off on who takes her home and who stays for the other two hours because if not one of us just sits in the hall fighting her. Yesterday was Tyler's day to bring her home and when I got home I found these two on our bed asleep watching Baby Einsteins. She almost NEVER falls asleep with us because she likes to be in her crib but apparently she was realllly tired and couldnt fight it.
Her little face looks so round and chunky in this pic. I love this! There is nothing Tyler loves more than cuddling with Soph. This weekend Sophie was so attached to Tyler for some reason. I think she just misses him so much during the week while hes gone. It's hard because he gets home at almost 7 and Sophie goes to bed at 8-8:30 usually so he only sees her for an hour in the evenings. She loves when he gets home, when she hears the garage opening she stares at the door to see if he's coming in. Its kind of sad but I can't really say the word "dada"during the day with her here because she gets excited and thinks he's home and then is let down. At church yesterday she wouldnt even sit with me! She would cry if I tried to take her from him, and when I was sitting in the hall with her he came out and she started screaming when he walked away! Normally I would've felt bad about it for myself, but I just thought it was cute. And its kinda nice to have a break. More and more I have started realizing why people would say its hard to have kids! I look around now and think how do they this with twins?! Or how do they have 4 kids under 4?! Being a Mom is really rewarding but also takes alot of patience!

I cant believe she is old enough to have 7 teeth! What the? She is seriously so cute. I love her cheeks! haha
I have been getting cabin fever a little too. With a newborn in January you can't go anywhere...RSV season! So the only places I have been in three weeks are the Dr and my parents house twice and Kyles parents once. So I totally feel ya! I NEED SUNSHINE! And warm weather!
My daughter had tons of teeth like that too, it is really hard while they are all coming in at the same time but then again it is kind of nice when it is all over and it isn't drug out for months or years. Allie had all of her teeth by the time she was one. I am sure Sophie will be the same, at the rate she is going:) Don't you just love daddy's girls, Allie is so like that too!
oh my gosh i totally feel ya on this post! church is super hard! and alfredo just got a job where unfortunately he has to work sundays, so i have to battle kailea all by myself! luckily, our time switched to 9 and now she is down to one nap a day at about noon, so the nap thing works out fine. but i HATE battling babies when it's their nap time. which is why i pretty much schedule my life around her nap time, haha.
and kailea was the same way with alfredo for awhile. she would scream when she saw him leave and wanted nothing to do with me. i was sad for awhile but i was glad she is such a daddy's girl. but now she loves us both equally again. :)
Oh she is darling. I love how you write so many details about your cute babe. You will love to look back on it later- like when she is two and marvel at how quickly it all changes! It definitely does take patience. I feel like I am just starting to get good at some things that used to be easy for me without a baby...just wait for nursery. You will love it.
Being a stay at home mommy is very rewarding and very exhausting. Sophie is so adorable and I miss her like crazy! Spring is just around the corner!! (Hopefully)!
I feel you on the whole cabin fever thing Jaimee. At least we have adorable litte freinds to keep us company! Sophie officially has more teeth than Ellie :)

How did I miss this post? Never even saw it until a week later.
So last night Glen and I lay in bed talking about all the worries that children bring into your life. It really scares me with what this world has in store and the actually hell that I think our children will have to go through. I am not excited about it.
So the worrying and tiredness that kids make us NEVER ends. See what you have to look forward to? Now go have some more!
Come visit Maggie and I during the day, we'll entertain you.
January and February are blah months and I am just glad they are over! And Spring is here/summer.
I love the pic of Desmond with Soph, they are sooooo cute, love and kisses to them both!!!! Can't wait to meet up again Jaimee!
