First Birthday!

New Toys!

Sharing with Judah...
Can I touch the flame?

The birthday cake - true motherhood initiation (how did it split down the middle like that?)
Sophia's mini-cake!
A new bike!

What am I supposed to do with this?
Do I have to wear clothes? It's my birthday...
At church in her birthday hat!

What a Wild Year....

The Countdown to One...

Sophia as Yentel...
Oh what fun the laundry is!

So innocent....

O Tannenbaum...

Sophia got her first Christmas tree! We were very nervous about putting up-afraid that she would pull it over on herself. She does love it, but fear not, it is still not as facinating as the cord behind the refrigerator.

Walk On...

The time has come. Sophia started walking over Thanksgiving and has yet to look back over her shoulder. I thought some really cute pictures of walking would occur but really the above best describes my new reality of chasing after her.

Thanksgiving

Sophia's first Thanksgiving was very exciting! She finally got to try real sweet potatoes...the inspiration for her favorite Gerber flavor...
