If you keep up with our blog, you’ll know that around the time we moved into this house (2 1/2 months ago), Sophia developed a fear of taking a bath. She would scream at the top of her lungs. So we survived by taking a super quick bath with her standing up most […]

Kim, Emily and Grandma Marilyn came down to visit Sophia (and us) on Friday night. Emily is very good at entertaining Sophia and I think the two of them had a lot of fun together.

Sat morning I made waffles for breakfast, then later Uncle Lee came up for lunch and we (Kevin) grilled some […]

Sophia moved up to the big kid room at Baby School on Tuesday and she LOVES it!! It’s a smaller center, which is the reason we chose it, but the baby room goes from 6 wks to 18 months. Sophia has been learning so much at home the last few months, that we’ve […]

I ordered a Furminator on Sunday, because Lexi has been shedding so bad these past few weeks.

Well, it arrived today, and all I can say, is they really work as advertised. After about five minutes of brushing, I had a plastic sack full of hair. You really can’t believe just how well it works.

Anyway, those […]

I thought I might catch you up to date with one side of my family. My Grandma and Grandpa Goodburn have 4 kids…three girls and one boy. Their only boy, Doug, has two boys. The youngest, Julie, has three girls. Pam is living it up with no kids in Houston and […]

Here is a somewhat blurry picture, of Sophia riding in a baby bumper boat at the Iowa State Fair (2007)

Kevin’s work gave us some tickets to the fair, so we took Sophia tonight to check it out. Sophia had such a great time. We saw some horses, sheep and pigs. She was just in awe of everything and didn’t seem bothered by the heat at all! We all shared a […]

Sophia’s little buns looked so nice and clear this morning. I was so happy to see her diaper rash all cleared up. That lasted about 8 hours.

I had some stuff to do after work tonight, so Kevin picked up Sophia at Baby School. They told him that her rash was […]

Thought I would give everyone a quick update. Sophia was so much fun after Baby School today. I think she must be feeling better. Her fever disappeared as fast as it showed up and I think her diaper rash has cleared up, too. Thank goodness she didn’t have any other symptoms…just […]
