Sophia's first cousinAddie arrived this afternoon in Charlottesville! She was a whopping 11 days late but still the respectable weight of 7 lbs 5 oz. Sophia is yet to be beaten in heavyweight stats (is it something I eat?) Thus ends the era of Sophia as reigning queen/only grandchild on both sides. Addie will give her quite the competition which is a good and healthy thing! Almost as "good and healthy" as November's upcoming arrival...
Sans Sophia once again we went out to a fun dinner at the docks at Chicks!
While in Virginia Beach we took Sophia to the Norfolk Zoo. Now unfortunately, the Zebras, Lions, and Tigers were unavailable so we spent a lot of time with goats and turtles, not what I had in mind for a zoo experience, but we adjust.
This Giraffe - lives in Norfolk. I find that really hard to wrap my mind around...
And the highlight, obviously was stripping down and running in the fountains!
Cruisin' in the red wagon
First ride in Abuelo's Hand-built Boat!
Hanging out on Grandma's Bed
Beach!
Out in the ocean with Daddy
Swimming in the pool with Abuela!
Here is Sophia exerting her sense of identity and independence by wearing her rain boots around (I'm trying to keep this phase of power struggling positive...yes, I'm calling it a phase...)
