hanging out at the Baer's cottage on Big Blue Lake
Sophie really started to like water more as the summer went on, she always wanted to "swim" with Eric...which meant him carrying her in the water with her paddling around :)
"playing" bean bags with Jadyn and Alena, these girls are going to be a lot of fun in the coming years playing together!
Well we got Sophie a big girl bike late in the summer, but she didn't have a lot of interest being shown how to use it...stubborn little girl :) Hopefully next summer will be better!
So instead she just like following Daddy around wearing her new helmet :)
We broke out the new sprinkler for Sophie to try out on hot days, she was a little hesitant at first...
but got a little more daring when the neighbor boys came over
We spent a week at Ludington State Park early August with our good friends, Sophie had a great time playing with the girls and enjoyed the water!
Waking up after a successful beach nap :)
Water fun with Daddy :)
Hanging out with the girlies...I'm sure trouble will brewing some day ;)
nice teamwork girls!
Sophie really loved spending time at the new splash pad in our park once it opened this summer
hanging out on the porch after playing in it
Enter Fall...Sophie got to spend the day at the zoo with cousins Peter and Brigitta
checking out all the cool animals
Two little cuties :) Someone asked me if they were twins!
Sophie being a "big helper" with Daddy, putting her big girl bed together!
Testing out her new bed! She's all moved in now and seems to like it most days...naps are still an issue but we're dealing with the adjustment! I have quite a bit more to put together in her room and hopefully I can post some more pictures of it :)So now here we are at the end of September, I have just over two more weeks until my due date and I'm so eager for it to be here! This pregnancy has been so different in many ways than Sophie's was and I'm ready for him to be out :) We have a few more things to do to prepare for his arrival, but overall we're just ready. As I said above, Sophie has moved into her new room and it's been a little adjustment, mainly since she realize she "can" get out of her bed! haha so hopefully we'll have those kinks worked out when baby boy gets here, probably not though! Basically I'm just hoping she makes the transition of being a big sister well, she's lived in her own little world for the past 2 1/2 yrs so this will be a big deal for her. I'm off this weekend for a women's retreat at Spring Hill Camps so hopefully that will be relaxing for me and a fun weekend for Eric and Sophie back home. I'll try to update again soon!
