Music Class and more!

We've been taking Sophia to music class at Gymboree for the past month and she really loves it. The first few weeks were Latin music themed and this week she shook her booty to 80's music. She especially loves to climb around on the jungle gyms and beat the drum, and pop the bubbles. Sophia's other favorite past time this week is having mommy and daddy walk her all around the house. She grabs our fingers as if to say "come on I wanna walk". Nana also taught her to say "Wow" so that's her new favorite expression(next to "uh oh"). Here are a few highlights of the past few weeks:

Not sure what mommy was laughing at but Sophia has "shakers" in her hand(that she loves to eat of course)

Sophia practice shaking the vitamin bottles before class...a skilled musician needs to warm up!

And this is where all her practicing paid off...she's shakin' away!


She LOVES the teacher!

This is a bit blurry but it's Sophia flyin' on mommy to the 80's jams

Oh and MY favorite part...I mean Sophia's favorite part...THE BUBBLES!!

Sophia "walking" mommy all over the house:

And finally a cameo from Sophia's latest best friend...her "lamby" whom she loves to hug and kiss:

10 months and we have a tooth!

The long awaited first tooth is finally arriving!! We saw it yesterday starting to break through on her bottom gums. She hasn't been fussy and has been sleeping great so we had no idea:) I had a perfect first Mother's Day weekend. Grandma Tees came to visit for a special Mother's Day lunch on Saturday and Sunday we had brunch at our house with Nana and Grandpa Paola and then dinner at the in-laws! This weekend Sophia went "swimming" for the first time! She loved it. Brian's long time friend Jerry came to visit with his son Aiden and we spent Sunday at the pool. Here are some pictures from the past few weeks festivities!

Doesn't Nana look pretty??

Sophia LOVED all the flowers Mommy's got on her big day!

Sophia pretty much "dove" right in! She loved the water.





We're gonna have to work on Sophia's summer tan!

There we go...Daddy and Sophia match with their ivory skin!

Almost 10 months old!

It's been such a busy month we've been so bad at blogging. Sophia had her 9 month shots and weighed in at 20lbs and is 27" long. She is perfectly normal! Yay! She was sick last weekend with a 103.5 fever she ended up at Urgent Care all the while in great spirits of course. It takes quite a lot to get Sophia down! She's pretty obsessed with eating cheerios and playing with spoons these days and loves our weekend visits to the park. Here are some of our fav pictures from the month

"Talking" with Nana P(with spoon in hand of course)! One of Sophia's fav people to "talk" to

With her Auntie Sarah on Easter Sunday

Getting so big!

Sophia has discovered the hats we put on her and isn't very excited about them ha! But they sure look cute!!

She came home with a mohawk from daycare:) Mommy can't wait until Sophia actually has hair to play with
