I'm 16 months old!

Hi there! My name is Sophia and here's some snapshots of my life at 16 months.

I love to read.

...And play!

With my cousins...

And some less real friends.

I went to the zoo with Grandpa

Where I saw many cool animals

And acted like one myself.

Cousin Andrew is one of my best buddies...

..But i really look up to my oldest cousin, Marcus.

Boy, do I love bread.

Have you seen my teeth?

Peek-a-boo!

And of course i love to laugh. Who doesn't?

Kid Party Weekend

So we had visits last week & weekend from the Atlanta Wheatleys, Dana Myers and Ami, the New York Frenches and the Columbus, Ohio Kastners, not to mention appearances by the Indianapolis Gerdtses, Herringtons, Hittles, Bargrens, Tansinsins and P. Erica. So plenty of time for play and craziness. Here's a few shots from the festivities.

Kaya, Amiya, Sophie and Jacinda make themselves at home.

...And have a bubble party on the back porch.

Fun at the Indianapolis Children's Museum.

Wheatleys, Gerdtses and Lily dress up and play with flowers.

Exploring IU Bloomington campus

Sophie exploring on her own in Jordan Hall.

Frenches showing Amelia the glories of animals preserved in jars.

Playtime in the IMU suite.

Sophie thinks she's so cool, about two seconds before she falls and hits the wall.

Sophie and Amiya: fun with strollers.

Climb on "Uncle Bandit" Ben hour at the IMU.

Fun with strollers part 2: "Easy, Ami, I'll handle this."

Jacinda takes Sophie on a wild bee ride.

Everyone loves Huck.

The crew! Well, a bunch of 'em at least.
