We’re thankful for Sophia around here. We can thank God for her flexible nature, her sunny smile, her contented disposition, and her health.
Eating: Actually eating some solid food now. Unlike Caleb who wolfed down purees, Sophia refuses to eat much baby food. She doesn’t make a big fuss about it, but she keeps her mouth firmly shut if she doesn’t like what’s being served or if she’s just not hungry. Her best meals are breakfast and supper. Her favorite food is applesauce. Not surprisingly, Sophia slimmed down over the past few months and now falls in the 50% for height and 20% for weight (as opposed to 90th and 50th).
Sleeping: Umm, yeah. Sophia is just starting to be able to “make up” sleep if she misses a morning nap, which makes mornings out much nicer. She still wakes up frequently at night (as our families can attest to from Christmas time). We’re working on it.
Physical development: Sophia pulls herself to standing and cruises along furniture, which means a lot of things are now within her reach (including Caleb’s toys). She enjoys walking behind a walker, but will not walk holding onto someone’s hands. Miss Independent, maybe?
First word: “Boo!” as in peekaboo. Loves the game! It’s also fun to listen to her jabber at her baby doll.
Separation anxiety hit pretty hard over the Christmas holiday. Sophia likes Mommy and hates to see me leave the room or hand her over to the nursery volunteer, her aunts, or even Grandma!
I’m thankful for what God is doing in you already, Sophia, and I look forward to all he will do in the future!

Wow, your kiddos seem to walk/cruise early! Levi is still thinking about it (walking), and can crawl so fast he isn't motivated to try to walk much. Sorry to hear nights are still rough....it does end. :) Thanks for the update.
