Skipping Ahead. Literally.

Lots of other events to catch up on, but thought I'd skip to the most notable change in our lives:



We witnessed the first couple of steps, but when we returned from our 5 day trip to Seattle and Omak, Washington there was a full fledged walker in the house.

I've got wheels, they're multiplyin'

You would think Sofia had just turned 16. Why does a one year old need so many modes of transportation? Because she has places to be, people to see.
Grammy and Nono's birthday gift to Sofia was this awesome take on the old school Radio Flyer.
These wheels are best for trips to Grammy's when she needs to bring lots of "stuff." (i.e. Mom and Dad need to cart alcohol somewhere)

Uncle Michael had this special speedster on the radar for many months before Sofia's birthday and he unveiled it at her party. It's so stylish and retro, we're sure Sofia will love it...as soon as her feet touch the ground.

The current favorite mode of transport is the Push Around car. This was a gift from Sofia's buddy Meghan. The best part was that Meghan came over and put the car together! Sofia assisted.
Everyday, multiple times a day, Sofia makes the sign for "car" and points out the back door. Sometimes we can get away with just wheeling her around the yard, but most days it's a full lap around the block.
She keeps her hat in the boot.

Then there is the iconic Cozy Coupe that I bought on sale at Toys R Us many months ago. It sat in its box in the garage until the Cozy Coupe Engineer/Angel arrived from Denver last week. Uncle Jim spotted the box and offered. And who am I to turn down free labor?
Steve practically did cartwheels when he came home from work.
