I haven’t been keeping this blog up, but I’m going to try and do better. To make amends, here are a BUNCH of pictures from over the holidays. We spent Christmas in Belgium, where Sophie met her overseas family.
Gosh, I hope y’all don’t have dial-up.
Sophie got along well with her cousins, (the two other girls you see pictured here. There’s another little blond, too, she’s the child of one of James’s friends). Sophie seemed to like the four and a half year old better than the 15 month old because the older one DID STUFF, like run around and play hide-and-seek.
How did Sophie sleep? Uhm. badly. Like we all did. We never really got on Belgian time. We tended to stay up really late (for Belgium) and sleep in late in the morning.
In general, Sophie is doing very well. She’s definitely hit toddlerhood and is pushing the boundaries of her world. That’s a good thing! She’s talking a lot these days and for the first time put two words together last night (no mo). I think that means No MORE. She was shaking her head and pushing her dinner plate at me when she said them.
