What have you been up to sweet Sophia?

I've been so busy this month! Lately I have been...

reading Mommy's magazines (8 months),

dancing and singing with my friends at music class (9 months),

wearing my hair in mini-pigtails (8 months),

climbing on anything and everything (8 months),

playing with my cousin Julianna (8.5 months),

taking my pants off during nap time (8.5 months),

Yes, I like to take my clothes off when I wake up from my naps :-)

and standing up all by myself (8.5 months)!

I have had such a fun and busy month! I talk to Mommy and Daddy all the time (in my own language of course) and I am trying so hard to walk. I take one or two steps and then I get a little nervous and sit down. I sleep 12+ hours at night (usually 7pm-7:30am) and take two really good naps ( 9-11am) and 1-4:30pm) I am so, so, so sweet and love to give kisses to Mommy, Daddy and my baby dolls. I like to say 'hi' and 'bye' and wave at people.  I get really shy and hide my face when I meet new people. After I warm up to them I give them one of my gorgeous smiles! How is Daddy ever going to say no to this sweet face?
