Birthday Girl

It's hard to believe Sophia is 1! She is this hilarious little person and I love listening to her gibberish. I'm loving every moment with her, except may be those occasional late night wakings. She's taking more steps on her own- only a matter of time till she'll be a full on walker.

Sophia loves: Singing, dancing, Elmo, reading books, playing with her Dad, animals

and especially her soother & softie.

We had a Cat themed 1st Birthday Party for her with friends and family

Cupcakes with #1's thanks to Bradey

Sophia's first taste of cake- as you can see she loved it!

A pretty tired birthday girl after an exciting party.

If only....

I watched 500 Days of Summer this weekend and have to say it was awesome! A refreshing alternative to the usual love movies. I totally recommend! I loved Joseph Gordon-Levitt in "10 Things I Hate About You" and now my crush has been reignited again. Check out his dance sequence. It's the best,....if only this happened in real life. Enjoy!

Halloween

Halloween this year was wonderful! To think last year at this time it felt like I was carrying a pumpkin in my tummy! Sophia was our little Bumble Bee and Bradey & I went as the Black Eyed P's. I found that last minute costume idea here.

We all went to a fun Halloween Party with lots of friends- great time and great food! This was my spooky treat:

Delicious recipe!
