Fun Family Time

Sofie's mastered the veggies and has moved onto fruits. So far she's had some apples, banana's and pears. The pear's, she loves, the banana's...not so much. Here is Sofie enjoying her first experience with fruits with her Nonnie.






Hey look...she likes it.










Sofie has developed a pretty good appetite, she eats cereal twice a day and finishes each feeding with fruit. She still has not had meats or water but will in about 1 month. I am thinking of making Sofie's baby food myself once she gets into a groove.

Sofie still does not like the taste of applesauce...it's a bit too tart.



Here is Sofie getting ready for her evening bath with her froggy scrubber. At the end of the day she has the most clammy feet and hands. She loves the water.

Here is Sofie spending some quality time with her Nana and Papa. They bought her a fun little learning station with goes blinky blinky and squeaky squeaky.

























We had some quality family time on Sunday, we went to church at the Cathedral of Phoenix in the heart of downtown Phoenix.

For those of you who don't know, Sofia had a fall last weekend and hit her head. She was sitting in her "bumbo seat" on top of the kitchen counter she leaned forward and fell. We took our eyes off of her for a split second and the unexpected happened.

Typing it out, I still cannot believe we allowed this to happen. She suffered a fracture on her skull with no concussion or any other major injury. Thanks be to God. After a brief visit in the hospital she was sent home and is expected to make a full recovery in about 4 weeks. Nick and I feel horrible that this happened but it's a mistake we learned from and will NEVER do again.

So, this weekend we wanted to take Sofie to have her head blessed. We asked all of our passed loved ones to watch over her and keep her safe.




This was such a beautiful statue of Jesus and Mary.

This is a beautiful bronze statue of Pope John Paul II commemorating his visit to Phoenix.

When it comes to feeding...Sofie will eat where ever and when ever. Here she is enjoying a delicious bottle outside the cathedral courtyard.

Sofie was pretty good all through mass. She was able to get a blessing for her head. We are still praying she will make a full recovery.
