9 Months old and....
- Still loving my baths
- My new favorite foods are rotisserie chicken, roasted potatoes and avocados
- I still do not crawl ( but I can transfer from sitting up to laying on my belly all on my own)
- I love to play a game, namely dropping an object, waiting for Mother to pick it up and then nonchalantly dropping it again. This could go on and on, but Mom usually figures me out.
- I love to be chased by the tickle monster ( usually Mom or Dad, aunties, or grandparents), this always results in rounds of giggles.
- I finally figured out how sip from my sippy cup, but only when Mom holds it for me.
- My new nick name is Cleo (short for Cleopatra) because I still love to be fed. I like to pick food up and play with it, it just never reaches my mouth. I still love to cuddle and be fed my bottles. My Mom says she's going to start fanning me like a queen.
- I LOVE other children and babies!!! When I see them at church and stores I get very excited and want to go see and talk to them.
- I've got one tooth and my Mom thinks I'm working on my second.
- I also enjoy walking around only holding on to my Mom's fingers. ( I might just skip the whole crawling thing. It's highly overrated!)

It's Over!
Rob's 2nd year of Med. School ended last week. On Thursday he took his last final and Friday he hosted a BBQ for some friends and other classmates. I was very sad to miss it, because I heard it was a blast. Of course what would a BBQ be like without Rob's famous ribs. He did the ribs and everyone else brought something. I was quite impressed he hosted a gathering all on his own! Who knew that he could be the "hostess with the mostess" :) Congrats on finishing the hardest year of Med school. Sophia and I are so proud of you! Now it's time to study for USMLE Step 1. He's got 6 weeks to study and then it's time to take the exam. In July he'll start 3rd year and begin all his hospital rotations. This next year should be a lot of fun for him! We love you Daddy and miss you.
Sophia's first swim
Two weekends ago ( I know I'm a little behind in blogging) we spent the nice, warm, sunny afternoon at my sister's in-law's pool. It was heated and Sophia thought it was great. Like a big warm bathtub. She sat in the floaty and played for a while, but her big event of the day was going down the water slide with her Grandpa ( see video below). We all had a wonderful time. Thanks Steph. When are we swimming again?
