Seventeen Weeks

I am loving summer and all of my time with our little one! She has been a little cranky the past few days. I am blaming it on the still-unseen teeth that are trying to make an appearance, but who knows.

Our bedtime routine has improved, but falling asleep is still a struggle. This week bedtime happened anywhere between 7:45 and 9:45. My goal is to make bedtime 8:00. She still sleeps at least ten hours at night regardless of what time she falls asleep.

We had our first playdate of the summer with Kristen and Tori. I didn't take a single picture, but Sophia had a great time watching Tori play and listening to stories. Tori gave up her pacifiers about a month ago and she gifted them to Sophia. I was quite impressed at how she remembered to give them to her!

We met up with Ashley and Avery for lunch. I used to teach second grade with Ashley before she moved to Atlanta. They were in town for a concert and made time for us. It was the first time I had seen them since Avery was born. I wish we lived closer together. It was so good to spend time with them!

Sophia got her first dog-related injury this week and it was completely my fault. Luckily it was only  scratches. Dave was sitting on the carpet holding Sophia and Hunter came over. I told Hunter to sit so I could take a picture of the three of them. As soon at he sat down he put his paw out to "shake" but since Dave's hands were occupied, Hunter ended up planting his paw on Sophia's head. She got a few red scratches, but they went away quickly.

Here are some more pictures from this week:

She loves her outside time!

Trying to fit *all* of her fingers in her mouth.

Sweet smiles :)
