4 months!

 So Sophie turned 4 months on saturday, I can't believe it! Where is the time going? I had a doctor appointment today and I guess she is pretty small for her age. (not that we didnt already know that) She is in the 20th precent in height, 15th percent in weight, and her dang head is so small, its only in the 3rd percent! She must get the small head from Nick, because I have always had a rather large one! :) 

Anyways...So, since she is now 4 months, we decided to have Sophie try solid food for the first time, well, if rice cereal counts as solid food. It seemed pretty watery to me. Anyways, I really dont think she liked it all that much, well actually I dont know,I couldnt tell really, because I dont even think she actually "ate" any of it. It basically all came right back out as soon as we tried to put it into her mouth. I guess that is pretty normal, though, for the first few times. Hopefully it will get better, because I'm kind of excited to start feeding her real food. :)

So not very many people know, but I have always really liked to draw. I haven't done it for a really really long time, but I got kind of bored one night and decided to draw a picture of Sophie. It turned out better than i was expecting, which is kind of exciting, because I really didnt think it would. But anyways... here is a picture if it. (by the way i think it looks much better in person, i couldnt really get a good picture of it.

So i just had to add some pictures of Sophie (what else am i supposed to do with the thousands of pictures i have of her, right? ;)

4 months old!

Just bored!

Nick is studying tonight, and I just put Sophie to bed and I decided that i would update what has been going on with our little family.... so I am sitting here trying to think about what we have been up to these last couple week and what I came up with is that basically not too much has been going on. To be honest though, nothing going on is kind of a nice little change! It seems like we have really had a crazy couple of months.
Right now though, I am just back to doing hair, I have been pretty busy with doing that and taking care of Sophie, who seems to think she gets to have my FULL attention ALL the time, and for some reason i give into her demands. :) She has started to be really smiley lately (well, smiley for her) and its fun to try and think of new dumb little things to get her to smile. 
Nick has been super busy with school this week. I swear those pharmacy people don't like to give them breaks. But he was in a little city ping pong tournament thing and he ended up having to play my dad for the Championship... and he WON!! I think everyone in my family was happy to see Nick win, except for my dad! haha
We also put up our Christmas decorations for family night last monday. I love this time of year and its so fun having Sophie with us this year. :)

I forgot to mention that nick has been trying new recipes. This time he made cranberry orange bread, it was delicious! 

Nick is always the best at getting her to smile!

HAHA! So let me explain this one... So back when i was in cosmetology school we tried this new kind of waxing where you use a hard wax to wax the hairs in people's nose. Well i told my dad, and brother Brandon, and nick about, so we decided to go get the wax and try it on them, a few weeks ago. Well they all loved it (it doesn't hurt as much as you would think) So... nick tells his brother Jono about it, and we decided to try it out again. I get quite a laugh watching them stick popsicle sticks with wax up their noses and then ripping them out. Its pretty funny. Anyways... so this is them with the sticks up their noses!
