The Birthday Girl

Sophia was not a big fan of her Birthday cake. She got her fingers dirty and then she started to cry when I put a little frosting in her mouth. Apparently it didn't taste good to her. Oh well! She really liked all of her wonderful presents though! It was so much fun seeing all of her family and friends that came to celebrate her big day with us. Thanks everybody!

Happy 1st Birthday Sophia!

Christmas Photos

I like my outfit but not a big fan of Santa.....

It's "Christmas Barbie" and isn't she just the cutest! We tried to get there early and have her meet Santa ahead of time but that didn't really work. She did not care for Santa, maybe she changes her mind next year;)

Um, I think someone has hair envy.......................

Excuse me but I don't think that's legal............

Here is Sophie in her very, very fun new toy that has completely changed her personality so I don't even want to hear about it, keep your comments to yourself;)

Halloween Fun...........................

Hey!...........where you taking me in my jammies???

Crazy Marathon Runner.....................

John Barbie ran the Chicago Marathon in 90 degree weather with high humidity and the best part is he didn't die:) Seriously though over 300 people went to the Emergency Room and eventually the race was cancelled. We were so happy when he was finished! He didn't run his best marathon time ever but he was so proud of himself for finishing and so were we!

I saw this a while back and found it fun!

Swinging the day away or at least 5 minutes of it..........

I am not exactly sure why, because we have all these fun toys for her, but she prefers to be with mommy or daddy. All though she will swing in her swing while we eat, usually;)
