Colonial times in Williamsburg

Today we took our car and travelled into the 1700's. In a color that didn't exist then, Sophie stood out. A little dancing and a little picnic makes for a very good day. 

Catchin up...

No photos for a long time it feels like. It has been a month full of crazy viruses, infections and what not going on at our house. I can't say we have done much other then 'survive'. This week we are all good and ready to rock again. Tomorrow is a BIG day and i mean BIG. We have been waiting for this day and talking about it on every car trip for quite some time. It's the day my parents come visit and we are so very excited. Let the fun begin. 

The picture below quite represents the mood around here. :) We have a bunny or two or three in our backyard and everyday we come home it seems to be waiting in the drive way. Sophie likes to go chase after them. 

One day in between our sick days I took her on a picnic and we had so much fun playing soccer watching geese and munching on goodies. Funny girl she is. 

This is how she would refuse to take this huge wilson bag off her back. We had to leave. She could not part with it. It let to a lot of tears and tantrums. End of World. 

The Way I View.. Friendship

This month's challenge was how I view 'friendship'. Sophie is starting to have friends and she knows it. I know because she is so excited to see them when she hears their name. Every time we get together she grabs their hands and starts to 'pull' to wherever she wants to go. She gives hugs over hugs and more hugs with a big grin on her face. I guess these are her first friendships and it's so awesome to witness. 

Now head over to Emily's blog over here to continue the loop.

Beautiful Spring Weather

I'm really loving every day we get to spend together. We have little dates at Barnes and Noble. We go to the children's museum and ride the 'choo choo', we hit the park a lot with friends. It's simply the best. I love seeing that little pointy finger and lately it's always in dirt or sand. It's so fascinating for her. 

Montreal

Our first trip to Montreal with Sophie. 18 months old been on 8 flights and not a single cry... I think we have been pretty lucky. She seems to love to travel. Fun week seeing Mike's family and visiting some old places. The church cathedral we got married in which once again took my breath away. It is so beautiful, full of angels everywhere. 

The Way I View Happiness

My 12 month project theme for March is the way I view happiness... well seeing this big smile and hearing squeals of excitement as she got higher and higher and went faster and faster is just pure happiness for both of us. This girl likes speed and pretty much everything challenging. Enough to give us a scare now and then.
