Tonight we went to the Grays for dinner, and Sofi went down in her pack & play so we watched a movie The Hangover (hilarious)
Reflecting back on this past year, I know that it was a hard year for so many people. On a personal level, it was devastating to lose my grandma, especially since it was less than a month before Sofia was born. I wanted so much for them to meet each other. But 2009 will always be the year that Sofia came into my world and changed me (us - both Nel & I) forever. She really truly is the most amazing human being I could ever imagine. Every day she makes me laugh, smile, appreciate the quiet moments, revel in awe that we created this awesome little creature. Every day she does something new - I try not to be "that parent" who thinks their child is the best at everything...but I can't believe at just under 9 months she is crawling, standing, walking with help, waving, clapping, babbling....she amazes me. I can't believe we waited this long for this great gift, but I'm also glad that we did because this is when I was really ready to be a mom. We love you Sofia!
I'm looking forward to all of the awesome things that 2010 will bring - I can't wait until Sofia is walking, talking, eating "big people" food -- all things that will happen this year.
Check out Sofia in her My First New Year bib!
