Big Moments: 

Sophie is now on the move! She crawls everywhere, rolls, sits up, tries to climb... 

Is officially off formula! (Yay for saving money!) 

Eats whatever we eat! No purees or dinky baby food... she wants the adult stuff! 

Figured out how to suck through a straw! (It's really cute and funny to watch!) 

Finally are done with spitting!!! 

She figured out how to wave and she waves to every one and everything! (When she wakes up [for the day or from a nap] she waves and the ceiling fan in our living room! ) 

Facts about Sophie: 

She still strongly dislikes snuggling, when she is ready for bed it's best to let her drink some milk, then lay her down in her bed with her blanket and leave...

Soph has her daddy's brain... she loves to intently study her toys, figure out how they work, and pick them apart with one finger... it's really cute! 

We are also finding she is kind of shy... in a crowd she definitely has to keep her eye, and maybe a hand on Tyler or I. Her favorite place is in one of our laps. 

She loves to learn and read (but you have to do it at her pace!) 
If you tease her in the least bit she lunges to bite! and with her 4 teeth, those bites hurt!
