Happy Halloween!!!...

Sophie's first "trick-or-treating" experience this year. Her uncles showed her how the process works and once she found out neighbors were GIVING her candy, my gosh...our little witch was unstoppable!





We treated in two neighborhoods and Sophie was practically running to get more "cannee". Luckily she had 5 boys to take her to each house. She would latch on to one of their fingers and drag them along. She didn't want to be carried by us nor did she want help with her treat bag [she'd rather drag it then give it up]. Needless to say, Halloween was a big hit and I think she's been sugared up enough to last the remainder of the YEAR.





Hope everyone had a fabulous time too. Thanks to uncles Mike-Mike and Davy; and thanks to all three Shaffer boys for being so sweet to our little tyke. Sophie thinks you boys are the coolest ever!





Lot of love!

Twenty Months...

Sophie turned 20 months old! [sorry, I'm alittle late] We already knew she was a "big girl" but I guess we underestimated how BIG she thinks she actually is. As most know we have officially moved back to LUBBOCK so being around family for her is HUGE! She's been hanging with her family and she's become a new person practically. She is more outgoing as opposed to being so shy. And she talks! She's her normal self...silly, sweet and fun! The side everyone gets to enjoy now!!

She says MANY words...her vocabulary count is near the 100s [if not more]. She loves airplanes..."AIRPANE"! She likes to color and play with her uncles trucks. She loves to be outside, making the rounds looking at all the animals on Pop Pop and Grandma's farm.



She likes to touch and feel EVERYTHING! Picking it up to get a closer look and see how it works is mere necessity these days, whether that be at home, outside or shopping. If she can reach it...it's in her hands. She likes to be tickled. Hates to go to bed and loathes brushing her teeth. She loves to jump on the bed or couch and can now climb up on the couch all by herself.





I'm sure I am missing so many more milestones here but frankly, my brain is out of sorts. We'll update again after we move in our house and, of course, for HALLOWEEN!!!

Hope everyone has a wonderful week. Love, love, love.
