Last week Travis and I undertook a new project in Sophia's nursery--I mean "Big-Girl Room"-- creating a "secret fortress" in one of her big closets! She LOVES it! And it was so fun for us to work on all together!
The outside... she loves going up and down the ladder! Such a climber!
She's into dinosaurs these days.
This past weekend we spent the weekend in Grand Forks, and did lots of visiting with lots of family! Cousin Timmy did a lot of good bonding with Soph...
You know she likes you when she dumps puffs in your mouth!
Timmy getting ambushed by the youngest kids/grandkids
Sophia with her cousins Jaylin and Gabby!
Soph and Uncle John smiling nicely...
And sticking out their tongues!
Chowing down with Aunt Kathy... Soph found this bonnet in the dress up clothes and loved it! And, as you may have noticed, she was VERY sociable this weekend... getting more extroverted every day!
Joining the girls for a sing-a-long performance!
Uncle Dan broke out the guitar...
...and Travis joined on the harmonica! One of my favorite things about Williams family get-togethers is that they always involve lots and lots of music!
Grandma Carmen was a sport and played Sophia's favorite game: Grandma Horsey! (or mom horsey or dad horsey... she's not picky!)
Sunday morning! For Grandma Mary's 89th we all went to Catholic mass at St Mary's, and then to the Hilton for brunch with the whole family! Sophia and 2nd cousin Mairi are the two littlest, and both were in plaid on Sunday! Too cute!
The cousins, serenading Grandma Mary
The cake!
Grandma Mary is every bit the Williams family matriarch; she is one special lady!
More bonding with Timmy :) He totally has a way with the kids... a good skill for someone going into teaching!
The barbarshop quartet!
With cousin Magdalene
The group! About 1/2 of the Williams clan (close family) don't live in the area, so this is about 1/2 of the usual suspects... that family is SO big!
Mary with Ralph (her son), Carmen, 1/2 of Carmen and Ralph's kids/spouses and all their grandkids (and another on the way!)
Sophia and Mairie
Being babies!
Love this picture! Sophia is so happy around her grandparents!
Back at home on Monday... Sophia is insisting on dressing herself, and she picked out this outfit: pink mock-neck, boots, pearls, and playing with dinosaurs! (No pants) :)
Bath pics... I'm trying to recreate a bath pic my mom took of me when I was a toddler. Hopefully I'll have some side-by-side comparisons next week!
